During CinemaCon at the stage, Costner said, “I think about the promise of America.” He added, “There was a promise out here that if you could go if you were tough enough, if you were mean enough, if you were resourceful enough, if you were lucky enough, you could take what you wanted in America.”
“That promise meant that we stepped on a whole group of people that had been here for thousands of years,” Costner said in reference to Native Americans. Horizon’s storyline is incorporated with that struggle as well, “If you could come west if you could survive it, you could make a home and at the expense of a lot of things. So to me, that's drama,” he went on to add.
