Lady Gaga To Star In “A Star Is Born”
Lady Gaga is in talks to star opposite Bradley Cooper in “A Star Is Born,” the remake that Cooper also will direct. Frankly, I’m not sure Cooper is the right captain for this project, but Gaga does seem solid casting as the lead. The movie, based on the 1937 film starring Janet Gaynor and Fredric March, centers on a movie star who helps an aspiring young actress find fame, even as age and alcoholism send his own career into a downward spiral. It was subsequently remade in 1954 by director George Cukor, with Judy Garland and James Mason starring, and again in 1976, with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson headlining.
