The film would have contained a much more violent finale as originally scripted.
1994 movie concludes after gangster Jules manages to convince Pumpkin and Honey Bunny to peacefully end their diner robbery by reciting the fictionalized Bible passage Ezekiel 25:17, but the 75-year-old actor has now shared the flick almost ended with a more grizzly sequence. — in the original script —in the diner when Tim first comes over and he asks about the briefcase, he opens it up. And when he opens it, I shoot Honey Bunny off the bar. And then I shoot his a— and kill him.
“They do a cut and I open my eyes, and it’s what I would’ve done before I got the vision in the house of ‘don't kill anybody.’ He’s still standing there. So that's not there.” While the Marvel actor liked the sound of the original ending to the film – which also starred Uma Thurman and Bruce Willis — Jackson previously insisted his favorite movie moment of all time was the diner scene from the movie, where his character chooses to put his past as a contract killer behind him in a quest to find redemption, all while his associate Vincent Vega watches in amazement.
He explained: “So by the time Tim gets there and I have an opportunity to do that speech again, the same speech that I've been killing people with, and make it make sense in a whole ’nother kind of way, and, one, it's just the biggest threat you've ever heard in your life. And the next, the dude’s like sitting there making a revelation about who he is and where his place is in the world, and who he actually is.
“He said, 'I’d love to be the shepherd, and that would be great.’ They said that they didn’t know how the movie was supposed to end until I did that scene. But they had no idea that that's what all that s— meant until I did it.”Netflix Fall Movie Preview 2024: The Big Films Coming to StreamingThe 12 Best Stunts in Movie HistoryQuentin Tarantino Cancels His Planned Final Movie
