“This is one of the best scripts I have seen in my career. Kevin is a legendary actor who brings so much depth and charisma…”
Almost thirty years after briefly sinking his career with the 1995 stinker Waterworld where he played a mutated human with gill-like structures and webbed feet, capable of surviving in the post-apocalyptic, water-covered Earth, Kevin Costner will have another swing at an oceanic epic next year with a surf horror film set in Bali.
The almost seventy-year-old Kevin Costner, whom you last saw as the murderous patriarch John Dutton in the television series Yellowstone, plays Lazer, “a washed-up American ex-pat with a mysterious past who finds himself living in Bali, Indonesia. Lazer recruits a group of surfers led by Bima, a local photographer, on a journey to an uncharted island to pioneer a ‘perfect wave.’ To their surprise, the island is home to an ancient tribe of headhunters guarding the land at all costs.
“What ensues is an adventure turned survival story of epic and bloody proportions on a tropical island which once seemed to be paradise but is actually closer to hell.”
Kevin Costner has joined up with Scott Steindorff and his Stone Village Films to bring the Headhunters to life.
“For decades, my friend Kevin Costner and I have been searching for the right project to collaborate on,” Steindorff said. “This is one of the best scripts I have seen in my career. Kevin is a legendary actor who brings so much depth and charisma to his roles, and has written an iconic horror script with Steve.”
Sounds like it has a shot at the worst movie ever made, don’t it?
Or does that crown forever belong on the head of the 2016 remake of Ghostbusters?
