A Star is Born is getting a fourth remake (most will recall the Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand versions), this time with Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga in the leading roles.
This rendition of the classic tale has a country music take as Cooper plays Jackson Maine, a country music star on the brink of decline when he discovers a talented unknown named Ally. Gaga plays Ally, but she’ll be billed as Stefani Germanotta, her real name, for the movie.
The singer and American Horror Story actress shared the following on Instagram:
She captioned the photo, "I am so excited to star in my first movie alongside someone I'm so lucky to call my friend. I always wanted to be an actress on the big screen. The story of A Star Is Born is so special and I'm so grateful to Bradley for making my dream come true. Can't wait for you to meet Ally. She has her first scene in 5..."
A Star is Born marks Gaga’s first film role and Cooper’s directorial debut.
Warner Brothers also announced yesterday that the film would be shooting concert scenes for the film at Coachella. Cooper and Gaga will team up onstage to film the scenes at the festival today and tomorrow.
It hits theatres on September 28th 2018.
