“I’d like to thank the Festival de Cannes for including my film Horizon: An American Saga in this year’s selection,” said Costner in a statement shared via Deadline.
The Yellowstone star stated, “It’s been 20 years since I’ve had the pleasure of being on the Croisette. I’ve been waiting for the right time to return and I’m proud to say that this time has come.”
“Horizon: An American Saga is a story that began 35 years ago, and I can’t think of a better place than Cannes to reveal to the world the result of such a wonderful adventure,” remarked The Bodyguard star.
Costner added, “The French have always supported films and believed deeply in filmmaking. Just as I believe deeply in my film.”
The multi-episode project, which is written by Costner and Jon Baird, showcases “the lure of the Old West and how it was won — and lost — through the blood, sweat and tears of many”.

In addition to Costner, Horizon: An American Saga also features Sienna Miller, Sam Worthington, Jena Malone, Owen Crow Shoe, Tatanka Means, Ella Hunt, Tim Guinee, Danny Huston, Colin Cunningham, Scott Haze, Tom Payne, Abbey Lee, Michael Rooker and so on so forth.
