Kevin Costner put up a big chunk of his own money to bring his dream Western saga to the screen, and it unfortunately landed with a thud in theaters. The first chapter of Costner’s Horizon: An American Saga was released over the summer and made just $38 million worldwide. That didn’t bode well for a planned four movie series — the second installment of which had already been filmed.

The future of Horizon has been in doubt, especially after Chapter 2‘s release date was removed from the Warner Bros. calendar. Now, months later, Horizon seems to be finding a bigger audience in the world of streaming, which could help better position its sequel for success.
Horizon was added to Netflix at the start of the year, alongside a few other big Warner Bros. releases. In just a few days, it has risen through the Netflix movie charts, establishing itself as the second biggest film on the service.
Sunday’s Netflix Top 10 Movies list shows Horizon trailing only In the Heart of the Sea on the charts, establishing just how much the film is catching on with fans. You can check out the full rundown of Sunday’s Netflix movie chart below!
