Kevin Costner and Horizon, An American Saga at the 77th Cannes Film Festival

by AMILCAR USA

The Cannes Film Festival is pleased to welcome Kevin Costner and present his latest film  Horizon, An American Saga  which will be screened on Sunday May 19, 2024.

Kevin Costner will present the first opus of Horizon, An American Saga  in world premiere, Out of Competition. A project in several episodes on the conquest of the American West of which he is the director and, alongside Sienna Miller, one of the actors.

Kevin Costner has always strived to portray America: its origins, its faults and its legends. For him, and we know it since  Dances with Wolves , the western has established itself as the genre of choice to express his political and environmental commitment.

“I would like to thank the Cannes Film Festival for including my film Horizon, An American Saga  in its selection this year,” says Kevin Costner. It’s now been 20 years since I had the pleasure of returning to the Croisette. I have been waiting for the right moment and I am proud to say that this moment has come.  Horizon, An American Saga  is a story that began 35 years ago and I couldn’t dream of a better place than the Cannes Film Festival to reveal to the world the result of such a beautiful adventure. The French have always supported films and believed deeply in cinema. As much as I deeply believe in my film…”

After forays into the series  Hatfields and McCoys  and  Yellowstone , he returns with  Horizon, An American Saga,  the genre that made the heyday of American cinema, through an ambitious project on the cost of wars and violence in the construction and the expansion of the United States of America.

Horizon, An American Saga  will consist of 4 episodes with the main roles: Sienna Miller, Sam Worthington and Jena Malone. Its release will extend over several months.

An accomplished actor appreciated by the public – we remember Eliot Ness in  The Untouchables  by Brian De Palma – Kevin Costner went behind the camera in 1990 with  Dances with Wolves , a humanist chronicle in which he played a soldier of the War of Near secession of a Sioux tribe. Having become cult,  Dances with Wolves  was a critical and public success which won 7 Oscars including that of best film.

Kevin Costner continued to exploit his talents as an actor, constantly revealing new facets of his game: he alternately played Robin Hood in  Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves  by Kevin Reynolds (1991), Jim Garrison, prosecutor in responsible for the investigation into the Kennedy assassination in  JFK  by Oliver Stone (1991), a bodyguard on the lookout in  Bodyguard  by Mick Jackson (1992) or even a fugitive with a big heart in  A Perfect World  by Clint Eastwood ( 1993).
