Kevin Costner’s Rarely-Seen Youngest Son, 15, Makes Acting Debut in Dad’s Movie

In a move that echoes the charisma and talent of his famous dad, Kevin Costner’s youngest son, Hayes Logan Costner, is making waves with his acting debut in the much-anticipated movie “Horizon: An American Saga.” At the tender age of 15, Hayes steps into the limelight, showcasing his acting prowess in a gripping scene alongside Sienna Miller, who plays his mother in the film saga.

The trailer showing the scene in which he appears—a vivid portrayal of a family’s struggle for survival—has marked Hayes as a rising star to watch. Kevin, a revered figure in Hollywood known for his roles in epic tales and Western dramas, not only stars in the two-part movie but also co-wrote and directed it.

Although the movie is only coming out now, the 15-year-old was just 13 when the movie was filmed. Of casting Hayes, the devoted dad who prays that he sticks around to continue raising his young kids, divulged, “I kind of did it on purpose, so he could be hanging out with me. And the same thing for Cayden, same thing for Grace. I’m like any other parent, I’m trying to figure out, like, ‘This is really neat. You should come be with me.'”

Kevin’s kids—in addition to Hayes, Cayden, and Grace Costner, Kevin is also a dad to his older kids, Joe, Lily, and Annie Costner—mean the world and more to him. Apart from the pride he has for Hayes’ career pursuits, Kevin also previously talked about Joe’s career, gushing, “My son Joe just got his first job out of college—he’s a sound engineer at a music studio. I’m so proud of Joe, Lily, and Annie.”

More than just his debut, Hayes’s role in his father’s saga shows that he inherited Kevin’s knack for acting and highlights the father and son’s shared passion for storytelling. Interestingly, when the young boy was born, his dad previously revealed that he was named after a “cowboy character” from a Western movie he had planned to make. Lo and behold, Kevin’s plan came to fruition with “Horizon: An American Saga.”

“Horizon: An American Saga” promises not only to be a visually stunning piece but also a heartfelt exploration of familial bonds, resilience, and the untamed spirit of adventure that defines the American frontier.

As audiences await the release of this epic saga, the spotlight shines brightly on Kevin Costner‘s son, whose performance is poised to captivate hearts and highlight the arrival of a new talent in Tinseltown.

As previously reported on September 4, 2023:

Kevin Costner has opened up about his contentious divorce from his estranged wife, Christine Baumgartner. Costner and Baumgartner were married for 18 years until the designer filed for divorce in May 2023.

The couple got married in 2004 and have three kids: Cayden Costner,16, Hayes Costner, 14, and Grace Costner, 13. Ever since Baumgartner filed for divorce, the pair have engaged in wild accusations as court proceedings went on.

The actor accused Baumgartner of dating his close friend Josh Connor because the two vacationed together in July 2023. Costner also said his ex received $20,000 in cash from Connor.

Baumgartner also accused Costner of withholding evidence of his finances. She said this accusation through her lawyer, but the actor denied it on the stand. The designer filed a request that the father of her three kids pay her $175,057 in monthly installments for their three kids.

She later reduced the request to $161,592. Costner’s ex made this demand, with her lawyer arguing that luxury was now a part of the kids’ DNA. In August 2023, the court ordered Costner to pay $63,209 in child support per month. This is down from the initial $248,000 per month that Baumgartner had requested in June 2023.

After his child support win, Costner opened up about the separation from his wife for the first time. “This is a horrible place to be, but this is where we’re at. It feels so bad. We’re talking about somebody I love on the other side. I just can’t,” he said.

On September 2, 2023, Costner was spotted in public with his youngest son as they relaxed and enjoyed breakfast in Santa Barbara.

The Oscar winner confessed that he still had love for his ex. Costner also clarified a joke he made on the stand. When Baumgartner’s attorney said the actor’s ex believed he wasn’t honest about his wealth, Costner responded, “Oh good, we’ll have to have a treasure hunt to find it.”

Costner’s statement caused the court to laugh. However, he later said he wasn’t laughing about the divorce proceeding regardless of the joke he made.
