Kevin Costner’s Top 9 Iconic Western Movie Scenes

Kevin Costner may not have as many Westerns as other icons of the genre, but he still has plenty of iconic scenes under his belt. Kevin Costner’s Western run began in earnest with 1985’s Silverado, and after that he quickly became one of the biggest stars in the world.

From 1987 to 1994, Costner had a miracle run of hits that included The Untouchables, Field of Dreams, JFK and The Bodyguard. While he may not have the same quantity as the likes of John Wayne, Costner has also become a latter-day Western icon.From Dances with Wolves to his Horizon movie saga or even his neo-Western series Yellowstone, anytime Costner’s returns to the genre becomes an event. He also makes the kind of old-fashioned epics that harken back to Hollywood’s Golden Age, though he injects a layer of reality and grit those more traditional “Oaters” lacked.
