Actor Kevin Costner wants to do a sequel to his movie The Bodyguard but with a different celebrity--Jessica Simpson. This was reported on Dark Horizons.
According to Kevin 'I don't like sequels' Costner, that proposed sequel to "The Bodyguard" is still something he's keen to do one day - but Whitney Houston need not wait by the phone.
"Ideally, it would be great to get someone like Jessica Simpson on board to take the story to the next level", he tells OK! Magazine.
Costner has already written the script for the sequel - which at one time he envisioned as a potential vehicle for the late Princess Diana - so it's possible we'll hear something official - like it or loathe it - on this soon.
In the original script for the sequel, Princess Diana was going to play Julia, a woman working in Hong Kong for the release of political prisoners. Costner's character, the professional bodyguard who protected a singer in the first film, guards Julia and eventually falls in love with her. No word on whether Simpson - or whatever young hottie he ropes into co-starring - would play Julia or another character.
