Never knew that.
But somehow i cant see Diana Ross in that role at all especially after seeing her act in The Wiz.

You should watch Lady Sings The Blues before judging Diana'a acting ability.
Must admit, I can't really see her as a Bond girl, either.

The Bodyguard was originally written as a vehicle for Diana and Ryan O'Neal I thought the plan was for Diana Ross to co-star with Steve McQueen (before his health deteriorated fast due to asbestos exposure, so maybe that is where Ryan O'Neal entered the frame) before she got (unfairly) stung by the criticism of The Wiz, and withdrew from the project, and serious acting projects for well over a decade.
If we are going to go sideways off topic into alternative musicians for film roles ... just think (despite what he said at the time) Bradley Cooper's first choice for his co-star in his 2018 reboot of A Star Is Born, or at least was until she did a screen test run through was Taylor Swift.... until she revealed her acting abilities & lack of chemistry were far more suitable to 2019's Cats than to an Oscar nominated vehicle.
