Bradley Cooper sings!
Warner Bros. has released the first trailer for the actor’s directorial debut “A Star Is Born,” also starring Lady Gaga.
Cooper, who is seen crooning onstage in the newly released footage, plays seasoned musician Jackson Maine who discovers struggling artist Ally (Gaga). She is about to give up on her dream of being a singer until Maine coaxes her into the spotlight. And, yes, the new trailer offers a sample of Cooper and Gaga singing together.
The film co-stars Sam Elliott, comedian Dave Chapelle and Andrew Dice Clay.
“A Star Is Born” is produced by Bill Gerber, Jon Peters, Todd Phillips, Lynette Howell Taylor and Cooper, while Basil Iwanyk, Heather Parry, Michael Rapino and Ravi Mehta are serving as executive producers. Cooper, Will Fetters and Eric Roth wrote the screenplay, based on the 1937 classic story by William A. Wellman and Robert Carson.
The film has been remade twice before, in 1954 with Judy Garland and James Mason, and again in 1976 with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.
