Directed by L.A. Story’s Mick Jackson, The Bodyguard centered on a Secret Service agent-turned-bodyguard (Kevin Costner) who’s hired to protect a Hollywood starlet (Whitney Houston) from a stalker.
The movie would become a hit at the box office, finishing its theatrical run with a $411 million against its $25 million budget.
During their time together, the two, despite their differing backgrounds, become incredibly close, and a romance gradually blossoms.
While it received relatively lukewarm reviews, the film did strike a chord with audiences.
