Saddle up as we take a look.
PREMISE
Explore the lure of the Old West and how it was won. And lost through the blood, sweat and tears of many. Spanning the four years of the Civil War, from 1861 to 1865, embark on an emotional journey across a country at war with itself. Experienced through the lens of families, friends and foes all attempting to discover what it truly means to be the United States of America.
THE FUTURE
You would think that having two movies shot back-to-back would be more than enough. Not to Kevin Costner though. The two chapters that we will get to experience this summer are only the first half of what Costner wants to be a four-movie arc. Production of the third film was underway before the 2023 Hollywood labor disputes brought everything to a screeching halt. Now that they are over with, production can get back underway. That’s in addition to Costner’s commitments to the final season of Yellowstone where his character of John Dutton is expected to be killed off. Whether the actor returns or his character dies off-screen isn’t clear as yet.
Horizon: An American Saga Chapter 1 opens on June 28th. Chapter 2 will follow on August 16th.
