The iconic 1992 movie starring Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner is being updated with a remake written by Matthew López, who became the first Latino playwright to win a Tony Award for Best Play, for his epic work The Inheritance, after Sunday's ceremony. López recently revealed that his new script for The Bodyguard will center on a "young Latina" character in the lead role.

What about Camila? Why even mention her? Is she mentioned in the article? 

Let's not act like there aren't black Latinas. Ethnicity doesn't equal race.

I really wish Hollywood would stop remaking everything. How is the film industry supposed to evolve and expand if these money hungry idiots just keep tracing back over everything in sharpie (most of time, an ugly colored sharpie, at that)?

I saw his play on Broadway and was shocked to see it was all-white gay cis men. I also hated it, so there's that.

Not excited about this at all.
