In Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill, what is the full name of Uma Thurman’s character?
Answer
Beatrix Kiddo
Answer
Beatrix Kiddo
Uma Thurman’s character in Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill is named Beatrix Kiddo.
Beatrix Kiddo is a former assassin who survives an attack at her wedding rehearsal and begins a revenge mission against the members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad. The film initially withholds her spoken surname, but the name Kiddo is later made explicit.
Thurman developed the project with Tarantino, and the character’s journey became the center of the two-volume story. The first volume emphasizes martial-arts action and a confrontation with O-Ren Ishii, while the second explores Beatrix’s history, training and relationship with Bill.
The movie is often called one film in two parts, although Kill Bill: Volume 1 and Kill Bill: Volume 2 were released separately in 2003 and 2004. O-Ren Ishii, Elle Driver and Sofie Fatale are different characters, not alternate names for Beatrix.
