Season 1

Lawrence Kasdan originally wrote his script for The Bodyguard in the late 1960s as a vehicle for Steve McQueen; by the time it reached the screen, Kasdan's star was another movie hearthrob, Kevin Costner.

When musical superstar Rachel Marron begins receiving death threats, she is compelled to hire a bodyguard.

Enter Frank Farmer, who immediately incurs the wrath of Marron and her entourage by imposing prison-like security measures.

An ex-Secret Service agent, Farmer still hasn't purged himself of his guilt feelings over his inability to protect President Reagan from would-be assassin John Hinckley (in the original concept, the agent had been guarding JFK in Dallas, but Costner was too young to make this credible; besides, he and Oliver Stone had been there before).

Gradually, and inevitably, Farmer and Marron fall in love.

The Bodyguard was a huge box-office success, helped along in no small part by Whitney Houston's bestselling rendition of the old Dolly Parton hit "I Will Always Love You."

Tagline: Never let her out of your sight. Never let your guard down. Never fall in love.
