“I thought the window was closing for me to be able to play an effective role in that movie.” And so I basically burned my ships.
“Like Cortés, we’re fucking around here. I’m going to make this. And I mortgaged real estate. Do you understand it now?’
He also said he put $38 million of his own money into the films.
“I think I could buy apartments and I could buy McDonald’s and I could buy a lot of things and just grow, grow, grow, grow….”
“That’s the message I want my children to understand about who I am: that I do what I believe in. I have anxiety, just like everyone else. I don’t want to be humiliated.’
They were also spotted with dad at the Palais des Festivals earlier today

And he was talking about his marriage when Christine fell apart.
‘Very serious things. And those things are very important. I have to deal with them,” he told GQ.
‘And I deal with it every day, emotionally, almost historically. And then there are the immediate needs of children. I’m not going to list things; I’m going to stop that immediately. That’s my job, to look at it and deal with it.’
He added: “I took big bites out of life, life took big bites out of me, right? I’m not going to lose myself because I’m bruised. I did that, but I’m not going to lose myself. And what I’m going to do is because we’re chasing the white whale now, okay?
“So I can’t let go of this rope, no matter how much my heart is on the ground, no matter how broken I am on a daily basis, I can’t let go of this rope, because if I do, this thing is called Horizon stops.

“And Horizon is not more important than the other things in my life, but I do have a certain amount of responsibility to the guys who invested with me, to the people who believe in me, to the people who want to do all four of those things to work. and am willing to put off other jobs on the hint that I might work.
“And so no matter how much water hits me in the face, I can’t let go of the rope that is this thing.
‘Pull. Don’t fucking hold on. Pull the damn rope too.”
Kevin also spoke to GQ about Yellowstone.
Yellowstone is not over yet.
It’s only halfway through the fifth season and there are no solid plans to conclude the saga of life on the farm.
Costner – who plays patriarch John Dutton on the number one TV show – shared some insights GQ.
The Oscar-winning star claimed he told creator Taylor Sheridan he would help end the series, but no scripts ever came his way.
He wrote and directed Horizon, in which he stars with Sienna Miller, Luke Wilson, Sam Worthington and Jena Malone.
And Costner also said he and Taylor have a “private” reason for not continuing, suggesting they have differences over how the show should end.
But the star, who is promoting his film Horizon, said he wants to help end the Dutton saga for the sake of the ‘public’.
Just hours after Kevin’s interview appeared, Paramount Network announced that Yellowstone had already begun production at the end of season five. currently filming in Montana.
The series returns on November 10, 2024.

Yellowstone premiered in 2018 and has since attracted a whopping 10 million viewers.
In the show, Costner plays John Dutton III, who fights to save his ranch; he has been compared to a Godfather character because he uses murder to keep his business and family together.
The show needs an ending, but it’s said that Kevin was too busy, wanted too much money, or wanted too much control to make it happen.
He said last week that he would no longer film at Yellowstone.
