    About Kevin Costner

    Academy Award-winning filmmaker, actor and musician — and the work his management team represents today.

    Actor and filmmaker

    Kevin Michael Costner is an American actor, director and producer whose work has shaped modern American cinema for four decades. His breakthrough came with The Untouchables and Bull Durham, and in 1990 he directed and starred in Dances with Wolves, which won seven Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Director.

    Later landmarks include Field of Dreams, JFK, The Bodyguard, Tin Cup, Open Range, Hidden Figures and the Emmy-winning miniseries Hatfields & McCoys. Most recently he led the Paramount Network series Yellowstone as John Dutton, earning a Golden Globe for the role.

    Horizon: An American Saga and Honeymoon with Harry

    Kevin currently devotes much of his time to Horizon: An American Saga, the multi-part Western epic he directs, produces and stars in — a project he developed over many years and continues to bring to the screen chapter by chapter.

    He also stars in and co-directs Honeymoon with Harry, a story balancing grief and unexpected companionship, alongside his continuing work as a producer.

    Kevin Costner & Modern West

    Away from film, Kevin fronts the band Kevin Costner & Modern West, blending country and heartland rock. The band tours internationally and performs at benefit events, including the One805LIVE! concert in Santa Barbara, which Kevin hosts and performs at in support of local first responders.

    Philanthropy

    Kevin supports first responders, ocean and environmental causes, and community health initiatives. Much of this work is carried out quietly, through partnerships and benefit performances rather than public campaigns.
