Everything you need to know about 'Horizon,' Kevin Costner's upcoming Western epic that he gave up his role on 'Yellowstone' to make

  • Kevin Costner is directing, cowriting, producing, and starring in a Western franchise titled "Horizon: An American Saga."
  • Two films will be released next summer, but Costner intends to make four.

"Horizon: An American Saga" is finally on the horizon.

The multi-film franchise that actor and director Kevin Costner has developed on and off for the best part of his career will debut its first two chapters in theaters in 2024, with two more expected to follow.

Set against the backdrop of Civil War-ravaged America, "Horizon" sits firmly in the Western genre and is expected to be a massive hit with the loyal audience Costner cultivated from his role on Paramount Network's "Yellowstone."

Earlier this year, while being questioned on the stand as part of a child support hearing following his separation from his wife Christine Baumgartner, Costner detailed how he ultimately decided to bet it all on "Horizon" when he realized pursuing the project and continuing with his commitments on "Yellowstone" wasn't going to be possible.

The 68-year-old testified that filming the most-watched show in America twice a year wouldn't allow him to work on his Western epic, which he is cowriting, producing, directing, and starring in.

So despite winning a Golden Globe for his performance earlier this year, Costner decided to hang up his spurs as John Dutton to tell his cowboy story.

Here's everything you need to know about the project.
