Kevin Costner showed off his toned, tanned legs as he soaked up the sun on a yacht while touring his new movie through Europe.
He starred in, directed, co-wrote and poured $38 million of his own money into his passion project, the four-part Western epic Horizon: An American Saga.
Part 1 debuted and flopped at the US box office in June, but is now receiving screenings in Europe, including at the Zoo Palast in Berlin this past Sunday.
Between red carpet events, Kevin, 69, made the most of his downtime, lounging on a glamorous white vessel from the Italian company Pardo Yachts.
The Yellowstone alum could be seen stretching himself across the deck and drinking in the Mediterranean air in an Instagram album posted by the firm.

In one especially eye-catching picture, Kevin could be seen breaking into a broad grin, radiating his inimitable movie star charisma.
He was decked out in a thin, short-sleeved white shirt and a matching pair of tiny shorts, accessorizing with a snappy set of shades.
When Kevin uploaded two of the images to his own Instagram, the comments section was flooded with lusty messages from his swooning fans.

One of them was none other than Savannah Chrisley, 26, the daughter of reality star couple Todd Chrisley and Julie Chrisley, who are both currently in prison for bank and wire fraud, tax evasion and conspiracy.
‘The smile he gives when he sees me for the first time,’ wrote Savannah in Kevin’s comments, adding smiley face and crying laughing emojis.
Four days before the album went online, Kevin was in Berlin attending a screening of Horizon at the historic Cold War-era Zoo Palast.
His journey through the backstage of the 791-seat theater randomly landed him inside a kitchen where he warmly greeted the uniformed staff.

‘This is Germany!’ Kevin announced to laughter in the room. ‘We’re in Germany right now. I’m in a kitchen. I’ve been in a lot of kitchens, uh, but thank you guys. You guys look really nice! Alright, make sure you see this movie.’
After the staff dutifully agreed to see Horizon, Costner made his way inside the venue where he introduced the first part of his four-part western.
On the red carpet, the two-time Oscar winner looked dapper as ever wearing a navy-blue suit over a white shirt, no necktie, black Oxfords, and black-framed glasses.
Kevin is still filming and raising money for chapters three and four of Horizon after the first two chapters had a combined budget of $100M (including $38M of his own money).
Costner had to mortgage a beachfront property in Santa Barbara in order to help fund his epic, set before and after the Civil War.

Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 1 received a dismal 48% critic approval rating (out of 145 reviews), and yet managed to eke out a decent 70% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.
After chapter one only earned $34M back from its $50M budget at the global box office, New Line Cinema decided to cancel the August 16 US release for chapter two on July 11.
Luckily, Venice Film Festival swooped in on July 31 and announced they would host the world premiere of Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 2 out of competition on September 7.
‘My dream was always to show @horizonamericansaga Chapter 2 at the Venice Film Festival,’ the Emmy winner – who boasts 4.7M social media followers – wrote on Instagram.
‘The fact that now they have decided to show Chapter 1 earlier in the day and then the world premiere of Chapter 2 that evening shows not only their belief in how the two films work together but their support of a director’s vision.
‘I’m indebted to Alberto Barbera for his courage and leadership in committing to this cinematic journey. It is with gratitude and excitement that I return to the Venice Film Festival. Long live the movies and those willing to stand for them.’
