Taylor Sheridan reveals Kevin Costner was only meant to appear in Yellowstone for the first three seasons, but network pressure to keep the star turned the hit into a longer run, with Costner remaining for two additional seasons before quitting in 2023 to focus on Horizon. He cited scheduling conflicts and a lack of scripts, noting he wouldn’t miss contractual obligations, while the Yellowstone franchise pressed on with spin-offs.

Horizon Hunters Gathering Sets Horizon's Next Move, Horizon 3 Still Years Out

Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier reports Guerrilla Games is focusing on the PS5/PC co-op title Horizon Hunters Gathering, pushing Horizon 3 years into the future.

Moon on the Horizon Appears Bigger: The Brain's Size Trick

The Moon looks larger near the horizon due to the Moon Illusion, a brain-based effect in which our perception of distance and size is distorted by contextual cues (like trees, buildings, or a flat horizon). Refraction actually makes the Moon look squished, not bigger, so the size increase is not atmospheric. The leading explanation involves Emmert's Law: the retina records the Moon’s size, but we judge its distance and thus its apparent size based on context, a two-step process that makes horizon objects appear larger even though nothing about the Moon’s actual distance changes.

The case is ongoing, with Sony seeking to move forward with discovery.
