Whitney Houston's 'The Bodyguard' Marks 25th Anniversary With 'I Wish You Love'


Twenty-five years ago, Whitney Houston stole our hearts when she released The Bodyguard, her iconic 1992 feature film debut, along with its accompanying chart-topping soundtrack. Although the legendary singer ultimately broke our hearts back in 2012 with her untimely passing, her legacy lives on through the music she left behind. To commemorate The Bodyguard's impending anniversary, Legacy Recordings, in conjunction with the late singer's estate, will release I Wish You Love: More From The Bodyguard on Nov. 17.

The album is set to feature unreleased live recordings from Houston's The Bodyguard World Tour, alternate versions of audio recordings from the film and an alternate version of the her "I'm Every Woman" cover remixed by Clivilles & Cole. The project will also include additional artwork taken from the film and will be available digitally, on CD and as a limited edition purple vinyl double album.

In addition to the updated soundtrack, The Bodyguard's 25th anniversary will also be celebrated with a reissue of the film on Oct. 31. The Warner Bros. Home Entertainment disc will come complete with previously released special features and will be available on both Blu-ray and DVD. Meanwhile, The Fountainbleu Miami Beach Hotel, which was used during the movie's filming, will commemorate the silver anniversary with an invitation-only listening party and movie screening on Nov. 4. Eager fans can RSVP for the special event via Houston's official website.
