Oscar-winner Kevin Costner recently shared his thoughts on comedian John Mulaney's humorous take on the classic baseball drama Field of Dreams during the Oscars ceremony. Mulaney, while presenting the Achievement in Sound award, playfully poked fun at Costner's iconic role in the 1989 film.
During his monologue, Mulaney joked about the significance of sound in movies and referenced memorable lines from films like Jaws and Field of Dreams. He humorously recounted the plot of Field of Dreams, highlighting Costner's character's decision to build a baseball field to watch ghosts play baseball instead of tending to his mortgage.
Costner responded to Mulaney's bit by sharing a clip of the segment on social media, acknowledging it as a 'not a bad summary' of the movie. He also extended his congratulations to all the winners of the night.
Costner's recent projects include the upcoming two-part release of his new Western epic, Horizon: An American Saga. The actor has faced challenges in recent months, including a high-profile divorce and reported conflicts over his involvement in the Yellowstone franchise's final season.
Despite the uncertainties surrounding his return to Yellowstone, Costner remains committed to completing the series. Fans eagerly anticipate the release of Horizon, with Chapter 1 hitting theaters on June 28, 2024, and Chapter 2 following on August 16, 2024.
The trailer for Horizon promises an epic Western tale that could rival Costner's acclaimed film Dances With Wolves. With the resurgence of interest in Western-themed content, fueled by the success of Yellowstone and its spin-offs, Horizon is poised to capture the attention of audiences seeking compelling storytelling in the genre.
