LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Set in San Pedro Valley in 1859, the epic Western flick 'Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter 1' takes viewers on a sweeping journey, crafting a tapestry of interwoven characters.

The film, starring Kevin Costner, explores the conflict between the Apaches and the settlers, as well as tensions inside the settler population itself, which are spurred by revenge and monetary benefits.

The rich premise of the movie has received a lukewarm reception from reviewers, but Western genre aficionados are bubbling with anticipation about whether there will be a sequel to this feature.

Fans of the film will be delighted to learn that 'Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter 2' is in production and set to be released on Friday, August 16, 2024.

In fact, the film is set to be part of a franchise since there are currently two other films in the works for the 'Horizon: An American Saga' series.

You can anticipate the release of 'Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter 3' soon after Chapter 2, as Costner said in an interview with Variety that there are 'four different movies' and that they would be released 'about every three months.'

'Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 2' will likewise be directed by Costner (who will reprise his role as Hayes Ellison) and will have more or less the same cast as its predecessor.

Chapter 2 is anticipated to expand on Chapter 1's character development as characters navigate their lives amid the struggle between the Apache and the settlers.

The sequel might go further into the aftermath of the White vigilante attack on the Apache tribe, examining how survivors rebuild and deal with the tragedy.

The second chapter might also potentially offer insight into Hayes Ellison's (Kevin Costner) background and motives. Furthermore, the forthcoming installment might provide more information on Frances Kittredge's (Sienna Miller) connection with First Lieutenant Trent Gephardt (Sam Worthington).

The second chapter is anticipated to delve further into the themes of identity, survival, justice, and cultural clashes on the American frontier.
