Though 69-year-old actor Kevin Costner has been active in Hollywood for more than 40 years and is credited for many hit movies, his Western series 'Yellowstone' once again put him at the center of attraction after it did well both financially and critically. He is awaiting good times again with soon to be released 'Horizon: An American Saga'. Some critics and cinema experts have gone to the extent of predicting that it may prove the 'Oppenheimer' of the 2024 summer.

Kevin Costner: Promise of America

While participating in CinemaCon held in Las Vegas on April 9, Kevin Costner unveiled the look of his two-part western film. He said, "I think about the promise of America. There was a promise out here that if you could go if you were tough enough if you were mean enough, if you were resourceful enough, if you were lucky enough, you could take what you wanted in America."

Release Date

The first part of 'Horizon: An American Saga' is scheduled to be released on June 28, while the second part is likely to hit the theaters on August 16, reports 'Screen Rant'.
