Mortgaged a house to pay for the movie

This A list actor/director is going to have to go back to the TV show to help pay for the disaster of his movie.

Kevin Costner
He mortgaged one of his California properties to finance “Horizon: An American Saga” for $100 million.

Kevin Costner’s highly anticipated tetralogy “Horizon: An American Saga” received a disappointing reception at the Cannes Film Festival, with most critics panning the first installment.

Despite the excitement surrounding the Western revival, early reviews on Rotten Tomatoes reflect a dismal 17% approval rating, later rising to 29% with more reviews.

Critics expressed concerns about the film lacking a coherent plot, credible characterization, and an engaging structure.

Many felt the movie attempted to juggle too many storylines and characters, resulting in a dull and unsatisfying experience reminiscent of a setup for a mini-series rather than a standalone cinematic endeavor.
