We’ve learned that Lionsgate is about to announce the 4K Ultra HD Steelbook release of Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill: Volumes 1 & 2 (2003/2004) along with Jackie Brown (1997).

Jackie Brown stars Pam Grier as a flight attendant who smuggles money into the US from Mexico for a small-time crime boss, and who is then used as bait by the police to catch him. The film is based on Elmore Leonard’s 1992 novel Rum Punch.
