Despite mounting disappointment for the four-part film series, Kevin Costner has stubbornly refused to consider adapting his $100 million epic Horizon
An American Saga for television. He reportedly values the "experience" of being on the big screen too highly.
Chapter 2 of Horizon will be released in the US on August 16, 2024, following the publication of Chapter 1 on June 28, 2024,
however critics have panned the previous installment.
Costner, 69, who starred in Yellowstone and put about $38 million of his own money into the picture, told Empire that he is taking a risk by bringing the story to theaters.
"Someone told me, 'Listen, Kevin, don't do this. Let's do this.'" he explained.
However, I am pleased with my current actions. For me, nothing beats the huge screen.
In that experience, I have faith. My faith in what's on the horizon for your TV is strong as well.
