Kevin Costner thanked everyone who helped him with his cinematic endeavours after the Venice Film Festival confirmed the premiere of Horizon 2.
On Wednesday, the Waterworld star took to Instagram to praise "those willing to stand" for the movie, following the 2024 Venice International Film Festival's confirmation of intentions to screen the second instalment of Costner's film
He wrote, “I’m indebted to Alberto Barbera for his courage and leadership in committing to this cinematic journey.”
The Yellowstone star continued, “It is with gratitude and excitement that I return to the Venice Film Festival. Long live the movies and those willing to stand for them.”
He added, “The fact that now they have decided to show Chapter 1 earlier in the day and then the World Premiere of Chapter 2 that evening shows not only their belief in how the two films work together but their support of a director’s vision.”
Costner stated that it had always been his dream to premiere the second film in Venice.
Chapter 2 will be released on September 7, after Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1 was screened earlier in the day.
