Everything you need to know about Kevin Costner’s sweeping new Western Horizon: An American Saga Chapter One

Saddle up for a sweeping Western that chronicles the troubled and turbulent birth of contemporary America. Horizon: An American Saga Chapter One is directed by genre icon Kevin Costner whose 1990 epic Dances with Wolves stormed the Academy Awards and cemented itself as a classic horse opera.

What is the story of Horizon: An American Saga: Chapter One?

Horizon is a multistranded odyssey that charts the destinies of disparate characters amid the rapidly disappearing American frontier. Chapter One begins in pre-Civil War America in 1859 with a group of homesteaders, among them Sienna Miller's Francis who are attacked by an Apache raiding party.

This is just one of the plot strands. In another, Costner plays gunslinger Hayes who takes it upon himself to protect a prostitute (Abbey Lee) and a boy in her care. In another, Luke Wilson plays a man guarding a wagon train making its way through hostile Kansas territory.
