Cooper also wrote the screenplay with Will Fetters and Eric Roth. A remake of the 1937 film of the same name, it stars Cooper, Lady Gaga, Andrew Dice Clay, Dave Chappelle, and Sam Elliott, and follows a hard - drinking country musician ( Cooper ) who discovers and falls in love with a young singer ( Gaga ). It marks the third remake of the original 1937 film ( which featured Janet Gaynor and Fredric March ), which was adapted into a 1954 musical ( starring Judy Garland and James Mason ) and then remade as a 1976 rock musical with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson. Talks of a third A Star Is Born remake began in 2011 with Clint Eastwood attached to direct and Beyoncé set to star. The film languished in development hell for several years with various actors, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Will Smith and Tom Cruise, approached to co-star. In March 2016, Cooper signed on to star and make his directorial debut, and Lady Gaga joined the cast in August 2016. Principal photography began at the Coachella music festival in April 2017. A Star Is Born will premiere at the 75th Venice International Film Festival in August 31, 2018 and is scheduled to be released in the United States on October 5, 2018, by Warner Bros. Pictures.

In April 2012, writer Will Fetters told Collider that the script was very inspired by Kurt Cobain. Talks with Leonardo DiCaprio, Will Smith, and Christian Bale failed to come to fruition, while Tom Cruise still remained in talks. On October 9, 2012, Beyoncé left the project, Johnny Depp also rejected the film, and Bradley Cooper was in talks to star. Eastwood was interested in Esperanza Spalding to play the female role. On March 24, 2015, Warner Bros. announced that Cooper was in final talks to make his directorial debut with the film, and potentially to star with Beyoncé, who was in talks to rejoin. Cooper would eventually star alongside Lady Gaga in the film. On August 16, 2016, it was reported that Gaga had been officially attached and the studio had green - lit the project to begin production early 2017. On November 9, 2016, it was reported that Ray Liotta was in talks to join the film in the role of the manager to Lady Gaga 's character, a role that later went to Sam Elliott. On March 17, 2017, Elliott was added to the cast, with Andrew Dice Clay entering negotiations to play Lorenzo, the father of Lady Gaga 's character. In April 2017, Rafi Gavron, Michael Harney, and Rebecca Field joined the cast of the film. Filming began on April 17, 2017. In May, Dave Chappelle was cast in the film. In April 2018, it was announced Halsey had been cast in the film. After seeing him perform at Desert Trip festival, Cooper approached Lukas Nelson ( son of country music legend Willie Nelson ) and asked him to help work on the film. Nelson agreed and wrote several songs, which he sent to the producers. Nelson subsequently met Lady Gaga and began writing songs with her and she, in turn, provided backing vocals on two tracks on his self - titled 2017 album.
