The first full trailer for Kevin Costner's 'Horizon: An American Saga' is here. The project is a wildly ambitious, four-part post-Civil War Western epic. Costner co-wrote, directed and stars in it. During a moderated discussion about the 'Horizon' trailer, Costner said of making the Western, "These are real lives. People just making their way, women just trying to keep their families clean and fed…I'm drawn to that. I'm always gonna get to my gunfight, but I'm drawn to the little things that people had to endure."

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.
