Kevin Costnerā€™s film debut came in the independent film Malibu Hot Summer (1981). However, Costner was uncomfortable with this movie because of its sex scenes. Costnerā€™s big break came when he played Jake, a cowboy in the western film Silverado (1985). His first starring role was as Eliot Ness in The Untouchables (1987).
