The other day we brought you news that Uma Thurman declined a role in "Lord of the Rings," a choice she now says was a huge mistake.

But in her storied career of more than two decades, there is one project that trumps even J.R.R. Tolkien's fabled legendarium in Thurman's own personal game of career What if … what if she had gotten to work with Stanley Kubrick?

"I was going to make a film with him -- for a long time I was scheduled to make a film with him," she said of "Wartime Lies," a movie she was signed on to make with Kubrick in the early 90s. "I was contracted to do it and things happened and he shelved the film. He never made the film." Read more...

Two year ago Quentin Tarantino piqued the interest of film fans everywhere when he promised two new anime companion films to "Kill Bill," one supposedly about the origin of The Bride and the other about Bill himself.

We don't know what's happened to the story of The Bride, but the other animated film is going to blow you away, insisted star Uma Thurman.

"His anime stuff is strong," she smiled.

We say we don't know what happened to the story of the Bride, by the way, because Thurman claims to have never recorded a voice-over for the anticipated project.

"It has nothing to do with me," she said. "It has to do with another character. You'll have to see." Read more...

You wanna know what else The Bride (from "Kill Bill") and Eowyn had in common?

They were both almost played by Uma Thurman.

"Yeah, I was asked," Thurman confirmed to MTV News of an offer from Peter Jackson to play Eowyn in the second and third films in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. "I had a small child at the time and I couldn't go away for a year. I was just too attached to home. It just caught me at the wrong moment." Read more...
