Kevin Costner Is Hoping Netflix Can Bail Him Out Of His Horizon Debt, Or He Might Have To Sell His $200M Property Portfolio

大意是凱文在Horizon四部曲中投資了大筆金錢
由於第一部曲Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 1的票房很爛
使得後面續集的拍攝面臨壓力
所以希望口袋最深的Netflix乾脆買下整個系列
要不然他只能賣掉他1.45億的豪宅

No one can accuse Kevin Costner of not putting his money where his mouth is. How
ever, as the veteran Hollywood actor has learned, passion projects can be a dang
erous thing.

Costner was very vocal about his self-funded four-part Western drama Horizon and
 even quit the streaming hit Yellowstone to film it. Horizon, however, tanked at
 the box office. Recent solid Netflix numbers have been an unexpected salvation,
 and now, according to Life & Style, the Dances With Wolves star is hoping Netfl
ix will buy the entire series from him to recoup his losses. If not, he might be
 forced to part with some of his real estate holdings.

“I fit [Horizon] into the gaps,” Costner told Deadline of his leaving Yellowst
one. “They just kept moving their gaps.”

Despite hopes that Horizon might emulate the success of Yellowstone, box office
numbers failed to materialize, leaving the acting icon in a deep financial hole.

Horizon’s High Stakes Gamble

“Kevin is good at projecting calm, experience, and a generally level head, but
behind the scenes, the whole Horizon project has been stressful to him financial
ly, physically, and even intellectually,” a source who has worked closely with
Costner on the Western saga, was quoted as saying in Life & Style.

Costner reportedly sunk $60 million of his own money into Horizon. However, afte
r the first installment’s weak reception, the second installment didn’t even m
ake it to theaters despite a warmer critical response from the festival circuit.

After the success of the first Horizon on Netflix, which made it to the top 10,
Costner and his team hope the streaming giant will pick up the remaining series
and help recoup some of the money the actor poured into the project.

Netflix Cavalry To The Rescue

The insider quoted in Life & Style feature revealed: “Netflix is the only compa
ny with deep enough pockets to completely bail him out of the hole Kevin has dug
 for himself with these movies. It’s a big check to write,” the insider contin
ued “but if the first movie continues to perform well for Netflix’s viewers, t
he expectation around town and even within Kevin’s Hollywood circle is that Net
flix will eventually step up and buy the rights to the whole series and take Kev
in out of debt.”

Costner’s Real Estate Nest Egg

It’s not as if Costner sacrificed all his money for the Horizon project. Accord
ing to court documents from his recent divorce — as revealed in realtor.com —
the actor has a substantial net worth of $400 million. He earned $1.3 million pe
r episode for Yellowstone and used his considerable real estate holdings to bank
roll Horizon.

One property in particular provided the funding—a spacious compound in Carpinte
ria, California, purchased in 1988. He and his first wife, Cindy Silva, lived th
ere after marrying in 1978. They split in 1994. The property is estimated to be
worth $145 million, and Coster took out a mortgage on the home to pay for Horizo
n.

The Carpinteria property, which sits on 1.4 acres of land, comprises a main hous
e and two additional homes, all of which offer sweeping views of the Pacific Oce
an. When Costner and Silva divorced, Costner took sole ownership of the home.

The property was thrown back into the spotlight during the actor’s most recent
divorce from designer Christine Baumgartner last year when she refused to leave
and moved into one of the smaller homes on the land. However, because Costner pu
rchased the property before the two were married, his ex, according to standard
divorce law, would not have a claim to his pre-marital assets. Eventually, Baumg
artner did leave.

Funding His Artistic Vision

In using his primary asset to fund a risky movie venture, Costner turned a deaf
ear to his financial advisors. He told Deadline at the time: “I’ve mortgaged 1
0 acres on the water in Santa Barbara where I was going to build my last house.
But I did it without a thought. It has thrown my accountant into a f— conniptio
n fit. But it’s my life, and I believe in the idea and the story.”

Costner’s other real estate jewel is his sprawling Aspen, Colorado, ranch. He a
nd Baumgartner bought the property in 2000 for $300,000 and were married there i
n 2004. The vacation hot spot includes a lake, a baseball field, a sledding hill
, and three hot tubs. Full-time staff keep the ranch in pristine condition, enab
ling it to be rented out for $36,000 a night and as much as $250,000 per week.

Though Costner’s romantic life and film career have undergone the same triumphs
 and pitfalls as many others in his business — his real estate holdings have un
doubtedly been his best investment.
