Legal trouble may be brewing for Kevin Costner.
On Wednesday, May 28, United Costume Corporation filed in Los Angeles Superior Court a breach of contract lawsuit against Horizon Series, Costner's company under which the Horizon film series is produced.
The lawsuit seeks roughly $350,000 for unpaid costume rentals for Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter 1 and Chapter 2.
United Costume’s lawsuit points to two bills that remain unpaid and are accruing interest. One in 2022 for roughly $58,000 in costume rentals for Chapter 1, and another a year later for an estimated $285,000 for the sequel, according to the complaint.

Unfortunately, this is isn't the only lawsuit filed against the production. On Tuesday, May 27, a stunt performer for Chapter 2sued the production for sexual discrimination, harassment and retaliation, among other things, over an unscripted rape scene that was filmed without the presence of a contractually required intimacy coordinator.
Costner directed, co-wrote, starred in and partly financed Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter 1. Released in June 2024, the film, intended to be the first of four installments, grossed a measly $38 million worldwide, despite a $100 million budget for the first two films.
Chapter 2 was originally set to be released in August 2024, but due to the box-office disappointment of Chapter 1, it was announced that its release date had been indefinitely delayed until further notice.
The future of Chapter 3 remains uncertain - but Costner seems determined to finish the project.
At the 2024 Venice Film Festival, Costner told reporters, "I don't know how I'm gonna make [Chapter 3] right now, but I'm gonna make it."
Costner is believed to be looking for financiers to finish shooting the films. Under his deal with a group of investors, he deferred his fees, mortgaged his Santa Barbara waterfront property and put at least $38 million of his own money toward the venture, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
