Luke Wilson spoke to Fox News Digital about filming with his horse, Charm, for Kevin Costner's 'Horizon: An American Saga,' which bowed in theaters Friday.

Luke Wilson's transformation into his 'Horizon: An American Saga' cowboy character brought with it 'respect' for his horse, Charm. Wilson, who starred as Matthew Van Weyden in Kevin Costner's passion project, opened up about what filming was like during an interview with Fox News Digital. The first of four films hit theaters Friday. 'I love Charm, and if Charm's watching out there in Southeastern Utah, I miss you. I'll see you in August,' Wilson joked.

Throughout filming, Wilson came to have a lot of 'respect' for the horse. 'But Charm, you know, Charm could hit his mark from 200 yards. And I have trouble walking into this room and hitting a mark. So, I have a lot of respect and, yes, love for Charm,' he said. Wilson was one of the first people to hear from Costner about starring in the passion project that the 'Field of Dreams' star spent decades working on, Deadline reported. 'For me, it was one of the most important conversations in my life,' he told Fox News Digital about receiving the phone call. Wilson referred to Costner as 'somebody I respect so much, somebody I loved as a kid, somebody I'd admired as an adult.

Horizon' also stars Costner, who wrote and directed the four films. The 69-year-old actor backed the saga with his own money after deeming it a passion project nearly 30 years ago. 'I know they say I've got $20 million of my own money in this movie,' he previously told GQ magazine. 'It's not true. I've got now about $38 million in the film. That’s the truth. That’s the real number.
