Netflix always rolls out a fresh slate of romantic comedies for the holiday season, and its latest festive offering is "Guarding Stars," which premieres Nov. 18. The streamer has now unveiled the movie’s first trailer and a batch of first-look photos, giving fans an early glimpse ahead of its arrival next month.
Inspired by Katherine Center’s 2022 novel "The Bodyguard," the film follows Hannah, a sharp and decisive bodyguard assigned to protect Jack, a charismatic action star, as he returns home for the Christmas holidays. Jack does not want his mother to worry, so he asks Hannah to conceal her true identity. His solution: She must pose as his girlfriend.
