March 17, 2009 Rihanna To Remake ‘The Bodyguard?’

rihanna-nyc-fur-031509-61

Love muffins, rumor has it that Good Girl Gone Bad Rihanna is interested in remaking Whitney Houston’s classic movie, The Bodyguard. Instead of doing it exactly the way Whitney did it, they are going for a “younger and sexier” take on the movie.

She is also linked to a new Charlie’s Angel film, while she works on her new album. Her team are currently dismissing acting plans. Houston, 45, reached out to Rihanna, saying, “Don’t make the same mistakes I did,” following claims the Barbadian star was struck by Brown in February [Source]

I think it’s time for a change of pace since her personal life is causing more headlines then her music.

Thoughts?

    In the wake of a report in New York’s Daily News that Rihanna is in talks to star in a remake of “The Bodyguard,” (for which she would take the role made famous by Whitney Houston in the 1992 flick) — as well as possible roles in a forthcoming “Charlie’s Angels” sequel and an unspecified film with Justin Timberlake — Rihanna’s rep denied that the singer is in talks for any of the films.

    Rihanna was in New York over the weekend and was photographed extensively while en route to reported business meetings. The Daily News report claimed that an “insider” said that Rihanna would take on Houston’s role in a “young and sexy take” on “The Bodyguard.” The site also reported that she is also considering working on a “Charlie’s Angels” sequel, as well as possibly starring alongside Justin Timberlake, with whom she collaborated on her single “Rehab.”

    However, a rep for Rihanna denied the movie reports to MTV News on Monday (March 16).

    In other misleading Rihanna news, a CNN report from last week that claimed Rihanna and Chris Brown had recorded a new duet after their alleged altercation on February 8 was debunked by a rep for producer Polow Da Don on Friday. The track in question was actually a demo of the song “Bad Girl” that the pair recorded with Polow last summer, and which the producer talked with MTV News about after it leaked onto the Internet in January. The song was ultimately recorded by the Pussycat Dolls for the recently released “Confessions of a Shopaholic” soundtrack.

    i think rihanna should take a break from everything and stay out of the public eye and get help

  • this has proven to be false. But she looks great in the most recent shots. I heard she dumped Brown. Yay if that is true.

    Aint nobody takin’ her slot so she could take some “me time” and come back even bigger.

  • I just hope that whatever she decides to do with her career that she does not let anyone abuse her verbally or physically anymore. Prolonged exposure to abuse can cause PTSD.

  • Charlie’z angels yes. I would love 2 see her in that..love love love! Body guard..not so much..maybe another bring it on sequeL…lol…. I want even waste time making a “bodyguard” joke…lmfao…

  • Are they serious? Why would they want her, of all people, to remake “The Bodyguard?” Someone who is only known for their looks and NOT their voice. Come on people. LOL I like Robin just as the next person but we all know that girl is not a real singer. Oh well… I guess it’s whatever sales.

  • i am glad it isn’t true, because that is when i would stop watching movies.

  • 1st of all “The Bodygaurd is not even old enough for a remake and it doesn’t need one. Hollywood needs to get new ideas and stop effin up old classics.

  • I love ri ri. She is holdin her head high. Im just tired hearing about the situation. I wish they get off of it. She is movin on and doin other things. They need to give a rest. Yes we kno chris brown gave her the beat down. Thanx 4 tellin us a trillion and 1 times. I think we got the memo. Don’t yall agree?

  • nahhh…This Movie Is Whitney Houston’s and only whitney’s… i cnt see rhianna singing “i will always love you” haha
