‘Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter One’ is now streaming on Max

Is there a “Yellowstone”-sized hole in your life now that the show’s been on hiatus for over a year? We have just the thing to fix that.

Beginning today, “Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter One” is streaming on Max. “Horizon” is, of course, the first installment in a planned four-part Western epic starring Kevin Costner. In addition to starring in the film, Costner developed, wrote, produced, and directed the project, which follows families, friends, and foes during a period of westward expansion as the Civil War rages on.

It’s been a long time coming, too; “Horizon” was first commissioned as a single film back in 1988; since then, getting it made became Costner’s passion project and eventually contributed to his contentious exit from the series ahead of Season 5B.

If you want to check out “Horizon” and have three hours (!) to spare, here’s how to tune in.
