I just wanted to reach out and let you know that after this long year and a half of working on Horizon and doing all the things that it takes, and thinking about Yellowstone – that beloved series that I love, that I know you loves it – I just realized I can’t continue season 5b or the future,” Costner announced somberly as he stared into the camera.
