Kevin Costner unveils trailer for Western epic 'Horizon: An American Saga'

Kevin Costner is finally giving fans a glimpse of the movie that pulled him away from smash TV hit "Yellowstone."
The full trailer for the movie "Horizon: An American Saga" features staples of the genre like gorgeous scenery, gunfighting, romances, and more. The "Saga" will arrive in four different movies. The first hitting theaters June 28, the second two months later. The final two installments have not been shot. Costner co-wrote, directed, and will star in the productions.
“When no one wanted to make the first one, I got the bright idea to make four,” Costner said, according to The Hollywood Reporter . “So I don’t know what’s wrong with me. But I wanted it to step away from what we usually see in Westerns where there’s a town that’s already there. No one knows how [the town] came to be. There’s a guy comes in off the horizon, if you will. We don’t know much about him, except that he has some skills he’d like to put behind him and this town ends up needing those stills desperately."
Costner continued speaking about why he wanted to create these movies, saying the people in his Westerns are real and not "Disneyland."
"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," he said.
Asked about the bright colors in the movie's trailer, which are different than most modern Westerns, Costner said he's making a classic.
“I think they exist in any decade, and that’s the opportunity we have in cinema is to make something that lasts… I don’t have a tendency to follow trends or [look at] what’s really working," he said.
"Horizon" also stars Sam Worthington, Sienna Miller, Jena Malone, Abbey Lee, Michael Rooker, Danny Huston, Luke Wilson, Isabelle Fuhrman, Jeff Fahey, and Will Patton.
