Actor and filmmaker Kevin Costner is facing a lawsuit from a stunt double involved in his upcoming Western film, Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 2. The stunt performer alleges they were subjected to an unscripted and sexually violent scene during filming, which was neither disclosed nor agreed upon beforehand.
According to court documents, the plaintiff claims the scene deviated significantly from the original script and was executed without proper warning, violating industry safety standards and personal boundaries. The suit names Costner, the film’s production company, and key crew members as defendants, citing emotional trauma and professional misconduct.
Representatives for Costner have not yet issued a public statement. The legal proceedings are expected to unfold in the coming weeks, potentially affecting the film’s release schedule and promotional campaign.
Horizon 2 is the second installment in Costner’s ambitious four-part Western epic, with a planned release later this year.
