Horizon: An American Saga: How to Watch ‘Chapter One’ of Kevin Costner’s Western Online

Max announced on Friday that Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 1, the Western epic starring Yellowstone’s Kevin Costner, will be landing on the streamer later this month.

The announcement was made on what was supposed to be the theatrical release date for Chapter 2.
