00:00These people think if you're tough enough, smart enough, and mean enough, all this will be there someday.
00:10The first full trailer for Kevin Costner's Horizon, an American saga is here.
00:15The project is a wildly ambitious four-part post-Civil War Western epic.
00:19Costner co-wrote, directed, and stars in it.
00:22They're not taking the full measure of this, Mary.
00:25I know the man I met was on his way to kill everyone in that house.
00:28He might as well have been walking up to get the mail for all I've bothered him.
00:32During a moderated discussion about the Horizon trailer, Costner said of making the Western,
00:37these are real lives.
00:38People just making their way, women just trying to keep their families clean and fed.
00:42I'm drawn to that.
00:42I'm always going to get to my gunfight, but I'm drawn to the little things that people had to endure.
00:47The first film will be released in theaters on June 28th, followed by its second chapter just two months later.
00:52The second two films in the four-part series haven't been shot yet.
00:55There's no army off this earth that's going to stop those wagons coming, little as they're wanted.
01:05The project has been a 30-year journey for Costner, who even took out a loan on his Santa Barbara home to help finance it.
01:11You use that much this year?
01:13Haven't had much need of it yet.
01:15Much of Horizon's press has revolved around how the film has impacted Costner's work on the Paramount Network hit series Yellowstone.
01:21The show's team complained that working on Horizon made Costner less available for the series,
01:25while the actor's team has blamed Yellowstone's script delays.
01:28In either case, it's very unclear if Costner will return to the show to finish patriarch John Dutton's storyline,
01:33when the show eventually returns for the second half of its fifth season.
01:36Paramount has announced those remaining episodes will end the series.
