5+ Years Later, Kevin Costner's Western Crime Thriller Finally Redeems Itself on Streaming

While Kevin Costner's love for Americana and the Old West precedes that of Taylor Sheridan, the Oscar-winner has found himself playing catch-up to the streaming maven following their fallout. The two worked together on the widely loved neo-Western series Yellowstone, which has spawned several spin-offs and significantly extended Costner's career as a leading man. However, Costner and Sheridan famously didn't see eye to eye during the show's final stages, which eventually led to its abrupt end in 2024. Since then, Costner has devoted himself to producing, directing, and acting in his magnum opus project, a five-film Western franchise titled Horizon: An American Saga. Now viewed as a rival project to Sheridan's work, the franchise debuted with its first installment in the same year as Yellowstone's final season. A second installment has been shot, while the third film is also in development.
