Box office tracking for Kevin Costner's 'Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter One' is looking worrisome. The big-budget film is tracking to open to $12 million domestically. That's not great news for Costner and those backing the independently financed Western, considering it cost $100 million to make before marketing and is being followed quickly by 'Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter 2' on August 6th.

00:00Box office tracking for Kevin Costner's Horizon in American Saga Chapter 1 is looking worrisome.
00:06The big-budget film is tracking to open to $12 million domestically.
00:10That's not great news for Costner and those backing the independently-financed Western,
00:14considering it cost $100 million to make before marketing,
00:18and the fact that it's being followed quickly by Horizon in American Saga Chapter 2 on August 6.
00:23Warner Bros. is only handling the film domestically and has three weeks left to make a major marketing push,
00:28including helping Costner rally Yellowstone fans.
00:32Insiders say Costner believes that tracking isn't capturing his fan base,
00:35which largely resides in the middle of the country.

00:42That looks like a promising place.

00:48Meanwhile, Paramount's prequel A Quiet Place Day 1 starring Lupita Nyong'o also just hit tracking.
00:53It looks like it could easily scare off Horizon and top the chart with a decent $40 million.
00:57However, it's worth noting that tracking has been off its game lately,
01:01creating additional angst for an already troubled box office.
