Chapter 1 is set to hit theaters on June 28 while Chapter 2 will be released on August 16. Parts three and four of the project have not been filmed yet.

“When no one wanted to make the first one, I got the bright idea to make four,” Kevin said during a panel discussion about the trailer, according to The Hollywood Reporter. “So I don’t know what’s wrong with me. But I wanted it to step away from what we usually see in Westerns where there’s a town that’s already there. No one knows how [the town] came to be. … We have a lot of Westerns that aren’t good too because they get simplified. [But] this isn’t Disneyland. These are real lives.”

The project has been a 30-year journey for Kevin, who took out a second mortgage on his Santa Barbara house to help finance the movie. Kevin also noted that the first two movies has added $100 million to the economy in Utah, which is where they filmed.

Kevin also recently opened up about leaving Yellowstone in part to focus on Horizon.
