After the death of Whitney Houston records sales for all of her music have skyrocketed. Now her first film, the box office hit The Bodyguard, is due to be re-released in movie theaters for one night only. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the film, Warner Bothers and NCM Fathom have teamed up to re-release the film. The Hollywood Reporter reports that The Bodyguard will be available on March 28th at 7:30pm in 400 selected theaters nationwide.

It has been 20 years since Whitney Houston’s box-office hit The Bodyguard first hit theaters, and to celebrate that anniversary, Warner Bros. and NCM Fathom have teamed to release the film in theaters throughout the country for one night.

Fans who want to see the film, starring Houston as a famous singer who hires a former Secret Service agent (Kevin Costner) to act as her bodyguard and protect her from violent stalkers, can head to one of the 400 select theaters nationwide at 7:30 p.m. local time March 28.

The Bodyguard was the second-highest-grossing film worldwide in 1992. The soundtrack became the best-selling soundtrack of all time, selling more than 42 million copies worldwide. It featured several of Houston’s most well-known and fondly remembered songs, including “I Will Always Love You,” “I’m Every Woman” and “Queen of the Night.”
