Comfortably nestled among my most anticipated films of 2024 is Kevin Costner’s “Horizon: An American Saga”. The 69-year-old Costner directs, co-writes (along with Jon Baird), and stars in this sprawling four-part big screen event. This ambitious cinematic adventure is a true passion project for Costner and seems pulled from the great Western epics of old. We were teased with a first look just a few weeks ago. Now we have the first full trailer and needless to say “Horizon” looks amazing.

Costner brings together a massive cast that includes names like Danny Huston, Sienna Miller, Sam Worthington, Jena Malone, Thomas Haden Church, Michael Rooker, Abbey Lee, Will Patton, Luke Wilson, Jeff Fahey, and of course Costner himself. The film spans four years during America’s Civil War and tells the story of a country at war with itself through the eyes and families, friends, indigenous people, and cold-blooded invaders. The size and scale of “Horizon” is truly breathtaking and I can’t wait to be swept away.

Chapter one of “Horizon: An American Saga” opens exclusively in theaters on June 28th. Chapter two opens “August 16th”. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.
