Production

[edit]

In June 2022, Costner revealed that the film series would consist of four distinct movies. It was intended that Chapter 3 would be released approximately three months after the second movie, with Costner explaining that he would like to see each installment debut in a similar amount of time between each release.[1][2] In October 2023, following the debut of the trailer and poster for Chapter 1 and Chapter 2, it was confirmed that work on the sequels was ongoing.[3]

In February 2024, amidst post-production on the first two installments, Costner commenced building a new production company named Territory Film Studios in Utah. Production on the third and fourth movie will begin later that year.[4] In May 2024, casting calls for background actors had commenced; while production was slated to begin later that month in St. George, Utah.[5][6]

Filming

[edit]

Principal photography began on May 13, 2024, in Utah.[7] One month following the completion of Chapter 2, Costner filmed a montage sequence that features scenes from Chapter 3. Costner stated that principal photography commenced on May 13, 2024; explaining that production had initially been planned to commence on April 25, before being moved to May 6 in order to accommodate funding.[8][9] Production of the third film was paused due to the writers and actors strike.[10][11] In August 2024, the filmmaker stated that though the first installment underperformed at the box office, production will be completed in spring of 2025.[12] At the 2024 Venice Film Festival, Costner told reporters, "I don't know how I'm gonna make [Chapter 3] right now, but I'm gonna make it."[13]
