Trailer: A Star Is Born (2018)
Surely this is becoming one of the most remade films? Although I have only seen the 1954 version with Judy Garland which I totally love! Therefore I am very much looking forward to seeing a more modern take on the film, Bradley Cooper is also directing as well as starring opposite Lady Gaga. From this first trailer it really does look like it’s going to be a special film with a great soundtrack!
Due for release in the UK on the 8th October, could well be an early Oscar contender?
