Uma Thurman has said she always shared a “good relationship” with filmmaker Quentin Tarantino and is open to working with him once again if he wrote “a good part” for her.
Earlier this year, Thurman said in an article that she suffered severe injuries after she was pressured into driving a stunt car she did not feel comfortable operating on the sets of Tarantino’s Kill Bill.
The director, on his part, had admitted that he still blames himself for convincing Thurman to sit in the car and called the incident “one of the biggest regrets of my life”.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, 48-year-old Uma, however, said she is open to working with the director despite the revelation about the car crash. “If he wrote a great part! I understand him and if he wrote a great part and we were both in the right place about it, that would be something else,” Uma said.
The actress and director first collaborated on the cult favourite Pulp Fiction, following it up the Kill Bill films.
Uma told the magazine that she always “had a good relationship” with Tarantino even after the incident. “We’ve had our fights over the years. When you know someone for as long as I’ve known him, 25 years of creative collaboration... Yes, did we have some tragedies take place? Sure. But you can’t reduce that type of history and legacy,” she said.
In the aftermath of the controversy, the actress had also clarified that she blamed the producers of the film, including disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, the most for the accident and revealed that Tarantino had already apologised to her for his role.
