Kevin Costner's 'Horizon: An American Saga': All you may want to know

Kevin Costner's Western movie, "Horizon: An American Saga," is set to hit theaters in 2024. The film will be released in two parts. The "Chapter 1" will be out on June 28, 2024, and "Chapter 2" on August 16, 2024. Warner Bros. and New Line are behind the release of the movie.

Kevin Costner planned to make "Horizon" into four separate movies originally, releasing them every three months. The movies were to be interconnected, forming a larger saga of different storylines. However, it's unclear if Costner still looks to follow the four-part plan.

Costner takes on many roles in the movie, not just as the director but also as one of the actors. He is joined by Sienna Miller, Sam Worthington and Luke Wilson. The story unfolds over 15 years in the American Western frontier and delves into the lives of settlers and Indigenous groups who inhabited the land.


Costner described the film as a portrayal of women trying to survive in a harsh world, often following their men to unsettled and dangerous territories. He emphasized the challenges and vulnerability they faced.

Kevin Costner is known for his role in popular series "Yellowstone," which made him one of the highest-paid actors on TV. But his involvement in the show's future remains uncertain due to conflicts with producers. They claimed Costner's availability had decreased as he focused on "Horizon," while Costner argued he was adjusting his schedule to accommodate Season 5 of "Yellowstone."

"Horizon: An American Saga" marks Costner's fourth directorial endeavor, following "Open Range" in 2003, "The Postman" in 1997, and the 1990 Oscar best picture-winner, "Dances With Wolves."
