Kevin Costner is facing a new lawsuit related to the sequel to his Western box office bomb, “Horizon: An American Saga.”
Western Costume Leasing Company filed a lawsuit Monday in Los Angeles County Superior Court against Costner, 70, and his production banner Territory Pictures for breach of contract, claiming the defendants did not pay for rented costumes used in “Horizon: An American Sage — Chapter Two.”
The lawsuit is seeking roughly $440,000 from Costner and his producers, according to court documents obtained by The Post.
The complaint states that the defendants owe $134,256.82 in initial payments for the costumes. Costner and the producers allegedly “did not pay the agreed upon rate for the costumes and failed to return the costumes undamaged,” the lawsuit claims.
Western Costume Leasing Company is also asking for $150,000 in economic damages, $200,000 in attorney’s fees, $40,000 in accrued interest on the bills and $100,000 in punitive damages.
The lawsuit claims Costner and his producers “did not commit these acts out of any sincere or proper motive, but did so maliciously, oppressively and fraudulently.”
The company included alleged invoices of the rented costumes in the lawsuit to back up the claims.
The Post has reached out to Costner and Western Costume Leasing Company for comment.
Costner directed, produced and starred in “Horizon 2,” which did not get its planned theatrical release after the first film in the Western franchise bombed at the box office.
Instead, the sequel premiered at the Venice International Film Festival in Sept. 2024 and screened at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival in Feb. 2025.
Two more “Horizon” films are in the works, though Costner is allegedly struggling to finance them.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, last year the actor “met with top Saudi officials and pitched them on helping to finance the third and fourth installments,” but the deal didn’t go through.
Costner, who spent at least $38 million of his own money to make the first “Horizon,” previously spoke about the struggles of financing his blockbuster dreams.
“I need some more money — I do. I need some of these big billionaires, with f – – king boats ‘from here to here’ who are fond of telling people they’re billionaires to come with me and make a movie,” he said last year on The Hollywood Reporter’s “Awards Chatter” podcast.
“I don’t have the money they have and I’ve already made two of ’em. Where are you rich guys?” the “Yellowstone” alum added.
Costner is facing another lawsuit related to the production of his “Horizon” sequel.
In May, stunt performer Devyn LaBella filed a lawsuit against Costner, claiming she was “the victim of a violent unscripted, unscheduled rape scene” that was directed by the Hollywood star.
LaBella also shared alleged text messages exchanged with the film’s intimacy coordinator, Celeste Cheney, as evidence for her accusations.
Costner has denied LaBella’s claims.
“Ms. LaBella was doing a rehearsal on an Insert Shot for a scripted scene. There was no intimacy or anything sexual in the shot. There was tugging on a dress while she was fully clothed in a dress with long bloomers lying down next to a male actor. Numerous witnesses have contradicted Ms. LaBella’s meritless claims. She herself texted her supervisor after she wrapped stating ‘Thank you for these wonderful weeks,’” Costner’s lawyer, Marty Singer, told The Post in a statement in June.
“We look forward to the swift end of this specious lawsuit,” the statement added.
