The iconic A Star is Born is getting another remake, this time with hot and talented Bradley Cooper starring opposite one of today’s biggest music stars Lady Gaga. And yes, Cooper is at the helm making his directorial debut.
Clint Eastwood‘s Malpaso Productions produces alongside legendary Hollywood producer Jon Peters and his Peters Entertainment shingle, who not only won a Golden Globe in the 1976 remake but also famously dated its lead actress Barbra Streisand, who also won for Best Actress.
Cooper with the beard and long hair resembles Kris Kristofferson who also won a Golden Globe for Best Actor opposite Streisand, and yes one might argue superstar singer/musician/entertainer Lady Gaga has some Barbra comparisons too.
Cooper plays country music star Jackson Main who discovers an unknown but talented singer named Ally whose career quickly starts to sizzle as Jackson’s starts to fizzle.
The romantic drama hits theaters October 5.
Take a peak.
