After a bomb explodes in her dressing room, her manager Bill Devaney seeks out professional bodyguard Frank Farmer, a former <a href="/wiki/United_States_Secret_Service" title="United States Secret Service">Secret Service</a> agent who served on the <a href="/wiki/Jimmy_Carter" title="Jimmy Carter">Jimmy Carter</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ronald_Reagan" title="Ronald Reagan">Ronald Reagan</a> presidential details, to protect her. </p><p>Frank reluctantly accepts Devaney's offer, but he feels Rachel is a spoiled <a href="/wiki/Diva" title="Diva">diva</a> who is oblivious to the threats against her life. She soon accuses Frank of being paranoid, complaining that his extensive protection techniques are intrusive. However, he and Rachel grow closer when he rescues her from danger after a riot erupts at one of her concerts. Her existing bodyguard Tony resents Frank's presence, leading to a brawl between the two in Rachel's kitchen. </p><p>Though Frank tries to remain professional, he and Rachel sleep together; he breaks off the affair the next day, realizing it compromises his ability to protect her. Hurt, she begins to defy Frank's security measures. Then, to make him jealous, Rachel flirts with his former Secret Service colleague, Greg Portman, whom she meets at a <a href="/wiki/Miami" title="Miami">Miami</a> party. </p><p>When her stalker places a threatening phone call to her, Rachel finally recognizes the seriousness of the situation and her need to trust Frank completely. Frank, Rachel, her son Fletcher, her older sister Nicki, and her driver, Henry, then travel to a large lakefront cabin in the mountains, the home of Frank's father Herb. </p><p>The next day, Frank rescues Fletcher from a small motorboat just before it explodes. After he secures the house for the night, a drunken Nicki, upset that her nephew could have died, admits she had hired a hitman to kill Rachel during a fit of jealousy. However, the letters from the stalker had come before that. Nicki has already paid in full and does not know the killer's identity. </p><p>Abruptly, the hitman breaks into the dark house and fatally shoots Nicki. Frank pursues the killer into the woods; he shoots at them, misses, and the assailant escapes. He then learns that the stalker had been apprehended earlier that day, and was in custody when Nicki was killed. </p><p>A few days after Nicki's funeral is the Academy Awards ceremony, where Frank gives Rachel a panic button in the shape of a cross to immediately alert him to any trouble. Despite this, a plethora of backstage technical issues hamper Frank's efforts to monitor the proceedings closely. While presenting an award, Rachel freezes and runs offstage, angry at Frank for embarrassing her with overprotective measures. </p><p>Later, Rachel is announced as the winner for <a href="/wiki/Academy_Award_for_Best_Actress" title="Academy Award for Best Actress">Best Actress</a>, but as she comes on stage to accept the award, Portman is revealed to be the hitman, masquerading as the bodyguard for the ceremony's host. Frank notices Portman pointing a gun disguised as a camera at Rachel and preparing for the fatal shot. He runs onstage and leaps in front of Rachel and is wounded by the bullet meant for her. As chaos erupts amongst the audience, Portman targets Rachel again, only to be shot and killed by Frank. While Rachel urges Frank to remain conscious and calls for help, he slowly passes out. </p><p>Frank recovers from the shooting and bids farewell to Rachel at the airport, both knowing their relationship would never work out. After the plane starts to take off, Rachel suddenly orders the plane to stop, jumps out and runs to Frank for one last passionate kiss. </p><p>Some time later, Rachel performs "<a href="/wiki/I_Will_Always_Love_You_(Whitney_Houston_recording)" title="I Will Always Love You (Whitney Houston recording)">I Will Always Love You</a>" on a stage, while elsewhere Frank is at an annual dinner keeping a vigilant eye on his next assignment. A minister is seen holding a cross similar to the one he gave Rachel. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Bodyguard_(1992_film)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1184024115">.mw-parser-output .div-col{margin-top:0.3em;column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .div-col-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .div-col-rules{column-rule:1px solid #aaa}.mw-parser-output .div-col dl,.mw-parser-output .div-col ol,.mw-parser-output .div-col ul{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .div-col li,.mw-parser-output .div-col dd{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}</style><div class="div-col" style="column-width: 25em;min-width: min(25em, 100%);"> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Kevin_Costner" title="Kevin Costner">Kevin Costner</a> as Frank Farmer</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Whitney_Houston" title="Whitney Houston">Whitney Houston</a> as Rachel Marron</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Gary_Kemp" title="Gary Kemp">Gary Kemp</a> as Sy Spector</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Bill_Cobbs" title="Bill Cobbs">Bill Cobbs</a> as Bill Devaney</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Ralph_Waite" title="Ralph Waite">Ralph Waite</a> as Herb Farmer</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Tomas_Arana" title="Tomas Arana">Tomas Arana</a> as Greg Portman</li> <li>Michele Lamar Richards as Nicki Marron</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Mike_Starr_(actor)" title="Mike Starr (actor)">Mike Starr</a> as Tony Scipelli</li> <li>Christopher Birt as Henry Adams</li> <li><a href="/wiki/DeVaughn_Nixon" title="DeVaughn Nixon">DeVaughn Nixon</a> as Fletcher Marron</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Gerry_Bamman" title="Gerry Bamman">Gerry Bamman</a> as Ray Court</li> <li>Tony Pierce as Dan</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Robert_Wuhl" title="Robert Wuhl">Robert Wuhl</a> as Oscars host</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Richard_Schiff" title="Richard Schiff">Richard Schiff</a> as Skip Thomas</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Chris_Connelly_(journalist)" title="Chris Connelly (journalist)">Chris Connelly</a> as himself</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Debbie_Reynolds" title="Debbie Reynolds">Debbie Reynolds</a> as herself</li> <li><a href="/wiki/David_Foster" title="David Foster">David Foster</a> as Oscars conductor</li></ul></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Production">Production</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Bodyguard_(1992_film)&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Production"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Lawrence_Kasdan" title="Lawrence Kasdan">Lawrence Kasdan</a> was an advertising copywriter who wanted to get into filmmaking.

It wasn't until I wrote 'The Bodyguard' and sensed it was different that I realized I was writing an increased level of density. A good script has levels of action going on, unexpected turns. Movies are an economical form. Your script must communicate in the tersest possible way an emotional feeling, imply it in a mosaic of tiny scenes. An unknown screenwriter selling a speculative script must deliver a delight. An established writer gets a lot of rope. The producer reads his script and says, 'I don't feel any delight but he must know what he's doing.' A lot of times he doesn't, and you have a lousy movie.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <p>Kasdan wrote it in 1975 and the script succeeded in getting him an agent, but it took the agent two years to sell the script—he says 67 people passed on it.
