KEVIN COSTNER - COSTNER USES DVD RELEASE TO REFUEL BODYGUARD SEQUEL

KEVIN COSTNER is using next week's (01FEB05) special DVD release of THE BODYGUARD to refuel talk about a sequel.

The new special edition DVD, which features never-seen-before-behind-the-scenes footage, has given Costner renewed energy in his bid to get a sequel to the hit 1992 film, which co-starred WHITNEY HOUSTON.

He says, "I think there's a window into that movie now."
