Kevin Costner's big-budget Horizon saga faces setbacks as the second installment is delayed following the first film's disappointing performance. Premiering at Cannes to negative reviews and earning just $11m at the box office, the western exploration films have failed to meet expectations despite a $100m budget. The delay aims to give audiences more time to discover the first film, which has received some support from fans and theater owners. Costner, who invested $38m of his own money into the project, remains optimistic about the series' potential success. With two more films planned and the third already in production, the future of Horizon remains uncertain. As Costner navigates this challenge, his departure from Yellowstone adds another layer of complexity to his film career.
