The 26 most anticipated movies of the summer
(June 28: Chapter 1/Aug. 16: Chapter 2, R)
Starring: Kevin Costner, Sienna Miller, Sam Worthington, Jena Malone, Abbey Lee, Michael Rooker, Danny Huston, Luke Wilson, Isabelle Fuhrman, Jeff Fahey, Will Patton, Tatanka Means.
What’s the story? Set to be released in two parts, this saga of the American West, set during the years leading up to and after the Civil War, is a longtime labor of love for director, co-writer and star Costner.
What’s the buzz? The scale of the story is epic. (Chapter 1 alone is three hours long.) Since its germination in 1988 as a conventional three-act western, the story has morphed and expanded. The saga now extends to four chapters, and at Cannes, Costner pledged to resume filming Chapter 3 and continue “as far as my money takes me.”
