Kevin Costner Is a ‘Joke’ to Surfing Community as He Preps for New Film: ‘They Think He’s Lame’


Kevin Costner has been 'trying to get in the surfing community' because of his new film, but surfers think he's 'lame,' sources exclusively tell Life & Style.

“He’s been quietly trying to get in the surfing community for years and hasn’t even got a foot in the door because they think he’s lame and a Hollywood star who should stick to dry land,” a source exclusively tells Life & Style of the 69-year-old actor. Directed by Steven Holleran based on an idea he originated, the movie is described as a mashup that combines the “kinetic energy of surf culture with the suspense of horror,” according to The Hollywood Reporter. Kevin will play a washed-up American expat named Lazer who now lives in Bali, Indonesia, and recruits a group of surfers on a journey to an uncharted island.
