Kevin Costner’s ‘Horizon 2’ Pulled From August Release After First Movie Bombs at Box Office


Kevin Costner's "Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter 2" won't be hitting theaters on Aug. 16 anymore.

Kevin Costner ‘s “ Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter 2″ won’t be hitting theaters on Aug. 16 anymore. “Territory Pictures and New Line Cinema have decided not to release ‘Horizon: Chapter 2’ on August 16 in order to give audiences a greater opportunity to discover the first installment of ‘Horizon’ over the coming weeks, including on PVOD and MAX,” a New Line Cinema spokesperson tells Variety. In his review of the first film, Variety ‘s Owen Gleiberman wrote, “Instead of unfurling a Western saga in a solid powerful arc, Costner serves up three hours of anecdotes, cross-cutting among groups of characters, dropping in on situations that are dropped just as quickly, taking a skittery overview of life on the range, and asking the audience, in many cases, to stitch together the backstory of what they’re seeing.”
