Uma Thurman

Zoe Bell was Uma Thurman’s body double on Quentin Tarantino's ‘Kill Bill’ films. Speaking to BBC, Bell revealed multiple details about the shoot, revealing that she had to have extensive martial arts training after the director realised her potential.

Bell said: “We did about six weeks training in China, but it was quite confusing because I was initially hired as the 'fall over' double - the person who hits the ground and smashes into things - so I was never properly trained by the fight team until we started shooting and they realized that I would make a good body double.” She then recalled the time that she got injured, which resulted in her undergoing surgery. She said: “I was injured at the end of ‘Kill Bill’. I hit the ground, instead of hitting the mat, pretty hard and busted my ribs and had to have surgery.”
