On May 19, 2024, the Cannes Film Festival will host the world premiere of Horizon, An American Saga, an ambitious project by Kevin Costner. Director and actor alongside Sienna Miller, Kevin Costner will present out of competition the first episode of this epic saga about the conquest of the American West, testifying to his unconditional love for this founding chapter in American history.
Kevin Costner, an iconic figure in American cinema, is no stranger to epic tales and the staging of historical and cultural panoramas of America. His passion for the Western, already evident in works such as Dances with Wolves, finds new expression in Horizon, An American Saga. This return to the Croisette, twenty years after his last visit, symbolizes for him the opportunity to share a project of the heart, matured over more than three decades.
Horizon, An American Saga, which will run for four episodes, stars Sienna Miller, Sam Worthington and Jena Malone in the lead roles, promising a deep immersion in the often complex and painful realities of American history.
Through this saga, Costner invites reflection on the foundations of the American nation, using the western genre not only as a backdrop for action and adventure, but also as a means of interrogating the values, conflicts, and aspirations that have shaped American history. Horizon, An American Saga promises to leave a lasting impression at its Cannes screening, once again affirming Kevin Costner's talent for telling profound, universal stories.
