The musical film remake, directed and cowritten by Cooper, is scheduled to hit theaters next Friday.
In advance of its nationwide release next week on Friday, October 5, the Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga remake of A Star Is Born has released what is essentially a music video for one of its featured numbers, "Shallow," featuring footage from the upcoming film. Check out the full song below:
The reboot is based on William Wellman's 1937 film, starring Janet Gaynor and Fredric March. The film was remade in 1954, starring Judy Garland and James Mason, and again in 1976 with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson. The new film will feature songs written and performed by Gaga.
Cooper plays Jackson Maine, a country music star on the brink of decline who discovers a talented unknown named Ally (Gaga). The two begin a passionate love affair, which is put under strain as Ally's budding fame begins to eclipse Jackson's.
