Epic Western from director Kevin Costner

Explore the lure of the Old West and how it was won-and lost-through the blood, sweat and tears of many. Spanning the four years of the Civil War, from 1861 to 1865, embark on an emotional journey across a country at war with itself, experienced through the lens of families, friends and foes all attempting to discover what it truly means to be the United States of America.

Our thoughts
After years of appearing in front of the camera in Yellowstone, Costner returns to the directing chair for this ambitious passion project. Costner knows westerns with Dances With Wolves and Open Range in his catalogue, and you have to admire the scale of this film. The aim is to tell this story over four separate movies over the next few years.
