Not pleased: Bobby Brown does not think a remake of his late wife Whitney Houston’s 1992 film The Bodyguard is a good idea
Bobby and Whitney were wed from 1992 until 2007. She passed away in 2012.
In 1993 they welcomed daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown who passed away in 2015, which was three years after her famous mother died.
One of the highlights of Whitney’s career was The Bodyguard, which spawned the hit song I Will Always Love You.
On Wednesday it was claimed by Variety that the film is going to be remade with writer Matthew López, the Tony-nominated playwright of The Inheritance.

The Bodyguard is about a former United States Secret Service agent turned bodyguard Frank Farmer (Kevin Costner) who is hired to protect a famous singer Rachel Marron (Houston) from an stalker.
Along the way the two fall in love.
The new movie is said to be ‘inspired’ by Whitney and Kevin’s romantic drama.
Lawrence Kasdan of Kasdan Pictures is producing the movie with Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich of Rideback.

Kasdan was the writer-producer of the original.
He had written the script in the mid-1970s, which was earmarked for Steve McQueen and Diana Ross, but it fell through.
The new project has been discussed since 2011 but never got off the ground.
The casting will not be easy as Houston not only looked great on screen, she also had that intense voice.
And Kevin has movie star appeal that has made several films, like Bull Durham and Field Of Dreams, into mega hits.
