Kevin Costner Hoping Netflix Will ‘Bail Him Out’ of ‘Horizon’ Debt: A ‘Hole He Has Dug for Himself’
Kevin Costner put himself deep into debt financing his passion project, 'Horizon,' and a source exclusively tells Life & Style Netflix is his only hope.
Kevin Costner is seeing the light at the end of the tunnel now that his pricey Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter One is earning healthy viewership numbers on Netflix, but he’s still many tens of millions out of pocket and praying the streaming giant buys him out so he can settle debts and salvage some much needed pride in the process, a source exclusively tells Life & Style. The first installment of the four-part series released to disappointing box office numbers and tepid critical response, but found a home on streaming services, which has begun to make Kevin back some of the $60 million of his own money he reportedly put up to fund the project. The insider notes that Kevin “still doesn’t fully understand why the theatrical release of the first part of the story didn’t connect with most viewers, but he’s pressing forward with the rest of the films and he’s finally got some good news in the form of Chapter One ’s excellent showing on Netflix, where it’s landed in the top ten.”
