Costner’s ambitious project didn’t just fail to hit the mark—it pretty much nose-dived straight into disaster territory. And now, it seems like one of his A-list peers is having a hard time trusting him with anything big again.

TheLegally Blondestar had calledHorizona one-of-a-kind project, but as critics weighed in, Wilson reportedly looked like he’d seen a ghost. Even though he believed in Costner’s direction, the negative feedback’s left him, and possibly other cast members, shaken. The source shared:

Costner, a Hollywood legend with Oscars, Golden Globes, and an Emmy to his name, ain’t new to setbacks. Despite the stinging reviews, he remains hopeful. “He’s a man of faith and hope,”says the source, noting that some of Costner’s biggest hits, likeThe Bodyguard, were initially underestimated.
