Kevin Costner's Western 'Horizon' to Premiere on Max

Kevin Costner’s Western film, *Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 1*, is set to premiere on the streaming platform Max on August 23, following its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in May and a theatrical release on June 28. The film, which has garnered attention since its debut, will be available exclusively to Max subscribers. After concluding its theatrical run on August 8, *Horizon* grossed approximately $29 million domestically. The film's transition to streaming comes amid uncertainty regarding the future of its sequel, *Horizon Chapter 2*, which was recently pulled from its scheduled release date of August 16 by Costner’s production company and New Line Cinema. Costner has indicated that *Horizon Chapter 1* will be screened prior to the premiere of *Horizon Chapter 2* at the Venice Film Festival, although specific details about the sequel's release remain unclear. The anticipation surrounding the film's streaming debut reflects the ongoing interest in Costner's work and the Western genre. As the film prepares for its Max release, fans and subscribers alike are eager to see how *Horizon* will be received in the streaming landscape, especially given its performance in theaters and the potential for future installments in the saga.
