Little is known about it. Costner's upcoming Western movie's plotline spans decades, but its characters and plot are unknown.

This three-hour runtime likely refers to Chapter 1 of the two-part film.

The media outlet didn't say which segment (or both) will take three hours.

The project's length isn't surprising given its "epic" theme, and Yellowstone aficionados should be pleased.

Kevin Costner took a risk by leaving Yellowstone, a successful show, to work on the epic Western, but it could pay off.
