According to reports, Lizzo was quick to give her approval for her fans' suggestions to feature her opposite Chris Evans in Whitney Houston's The Bodyguard remake. She reacted, "Screaming. yall tew much[sic]." 

On Wednesday, Variety confirmed that 1992's classic romantic drama will be remade and that the casting has not been finalised yet. As soon as the report was published, many fans and followers started trending Lizzo and Chris Evans in The Bodyguard remake on their social media platforms. A fan had tweeted that the Rumours singer and Chris could be cast in the remake. Thus, many other Twitter users also joined in and expressed their excitement about the possibility. However, Chris is yet to react to the casting pitch.

Well, this isn't the first time that the singer has expressed her admiration towards the A-list hunk. According to E Online, in April, the Truth Hurts star had dropped a TikTok video where she revealed that she had sent three emojis — gust of wind, woman-playing-basketball and a basketball — to Chris. The next day, she shared yet another video displaying that Chris had responded to her by writing, "No shame in a drunk DM (face-throwing-a-kiss emoji) God knows I've done worse on this app lol (facepalm emoji)." 

Last month during her conversation with the host on a talk show, Andy Cohen's show, Lizzo revealed Chris has said he plans to attend one of her upcoming concerts. Meanwhile, the new movie, The Bodyguard's remake will be produced by Lawrence Kasdan of Kasdan Pictures and Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich of Rideback. Rideback's Nick Reynolds will serve as executive producer, while Kasdan will also serve as the writer.
