There is talk of a remake of The Bodyguard and Bobby Brown is not feeling it. The original film starred late icon Whitney Houston, Brown’s ex-wife. TMZ cameras caught Bobby on the go in the airport and asked if the remake was a bad idea. He kept it very short, “yeah.”
According to Variety, the remake will be inspired by the 1992 original. The first film starred Houston alongside Kevin Costner and has one of the best-selling film soundtracks of all time. The new film will be led by Matthew López, the Tony-nominated playwright of The Inheritance.
Lawrence Kasdan of Kasdan Pictures, Dan Lin, and Jonathan Eirich of Rideback will produce the new film. Rideback’s Nick Reynolds will executive produce. Kasdan was also the writer and producer for the original film.
