Hello all, Mad Dashiell here and thanks for joining me today.
The first trailer for A Star Is Born has been released. Bradley Cooper, the Four-time Oscar nominee is making his directorial debut with this film. Cooper will don the dusty role of musician Jackson Maine making him the fourth incarnation for the role of this jaded struggling artist character. The surrealist queen of pop stars Lady Gaga will light up the screens as Ally, this marks her first starring role. The movie will follow this pair along their ups and downs with the music scene as their backdrop. Also, an unexpected wizened voice of Dave Chapelle marks their entrance in the trailer. The Diceman himself Andrew Dice Clay and Sam Elliot also star in the film.
-Gaga was nominated for an Oscar with her 2015 song, "Til It Happens to You". Gaga has recorded original songs for A STAR IS BORN. They were written with Cooper and a handful of artists, including Lukas Nelson, Mark Ronson, and Jason Isbell.
-A STAR IS BORN- is set to hit theaters Oct. 5.
A STAR IS BORN, 1976-
A STAR IS BORN, 1954-
A STAR IS BORN, 1937-
Thanks for joining me for a trip down film incarnation lane, each film prior has been musically set appropriately for their time and this version sets the stage with country western music. I already hear people saying this is Cooper's vanity project but there is a chance this could be pretty good. I know Gaga gives whatever she is working on her all and I look forward to seeing what she brings to the big screen. Until next time this is Mad Dashiell signing off.
