Kevin Costner Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
Kevin Costner has captured headlines this week with a moving tribute to his late Dances With Wolves co-star Graham Greene, who passed away on September first at seventy-three, after a lengthy illness. Costner took to Instagram on Tuesday, sharing a memorable scene from their Oscar-winning film and praising Greene as a “master at work and a wonderful human being.” He expressed gratitude for having witnessed Greene’s legacy, highlighting his commitment to learning the Lakota language and the recognition Greene received with his Academy Award nomination. Fans flooded the comments, lauding Greene’s trailblazing work for Native American representation and Costner’s role in making that possible. According to TMZ, one of Greene’s final wishes was to reconnect and thank Costner for his support of indigenous stories over the years. While the two weren’t able to speak before Greene’s passing, Costner’s heartfelt message made clear the deep admiration shared between them.
Career-wise, Costner’s recent chapter remains defined by his high-risk Horizon: An American Saga project. The actor-director, who financed the sweeping four-part film largely himself, faces uncertainty regarding the later installments after modest reviews and tepid box office—thirty-eight million dollars worldwide for the first, and the second still lacking a release date despite screening at the Venice International Film Festival last year. The Daily Wire notes that Costner’s decades-long dream of turning American West stories into epics echoes the artistic gamble and passion that propelled his earlier hits.
Costner’s Yellowstone legacy endures as well. The show’s 2024 finale drew over thirteen million viewers, reinforcing his standing as a pop culture mainstay. Meanwhile, classic Costner is enjoying a resurgence: Collider points out that his much-maligned Waterworld, now thirty years old, currently ranks as the fifth-most-streamed movie on Tubi, framing him as an icon who continues to find new audiences and spark pop culture debates.
On the personal front, Parade reports Costner is actively seeking love again, with his agent arranging dates about a year after his divorce from Christine Baumgartner. He addressed rumors about singer Jewel, clarifying they are just friends, despite previous media speculation. Social media has seen Costner’s Instagram tribute to Greene widely shared, and fans have reminisced about his classic roles and character both on and off screen.
