When Your Career Is Over....

Western genre darling Kevin Costner is developing with A&E a miniseries about post-Civil War conflicts during the settlement of the West.

At the moment, Costner is simply executive producing, but he may direct parts of the series, as well as star in it.

According to A&E’s senior vp drama programmer, Tana Nugent Jamieson, “Costner understands the Western better than anybody, and he respects the genre. He knows every bit of detail about the West; this is a genre he feels a lot of passion for. It’s a perfect fit.”
