The cast included Sienna Miller, Sam Worthington and Giovanni Ribisi. The film also featured, among others, 15-year-old Hayes Costner. – There are young people who would do anything to be in a movie, and I want these kids to be in them. If my children are not interested in this business, I am not going to just give them something because I know that there are other people for whom this is a dream – says the director/father in an interview with “Metro”.
However, the rest of his statement proves that he had his own interest in casting his son. – I’m also a father and it was just a spur of the moment decision, I wanted him to be close to me. I was away from home, I needed to be close to my family and this was a way to trap him. I thought he was just beautiful in the movie, adds Kevin Costner. Hayes Costner appeared with the rest of the filmmakers in Cannes. More photos can be found in the gallery.
