Kevin Costner has been working on a ten-hour western

January 1, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Kevin Costner is certainly no stranger to westerns, having appeared in the likes of Silverado and Wyatt Earp, as well as directing and starring in the Oscar-winning Dances with Wolves and 2003’s Open Range. And, it seems he’s keen to get back get back in the saddle for both a return to the genre and the director’s chair, revealing to Variety that he’s been developing an epic ten-hour western.

“I’ve been working on it,” said Costner. “It’s about 10 hours long, how about that? Maybe I’ll make three features out of it. There’s a fourth one, too, so it’s truly a saga. I could do TV, or I could also make it like every six months, have a big western that’s tied together like Jean de Florette and Manon of the Spring. I think those are fun to watch.”

The western has enjoyed a resurgence of sorts in recent years through films such as Django Unchained, The Hateful Eight, Bone Tomahawk and The Magnificent Seven, so let’s hope Costner is able to pull this new project together.
