Rumor has it that the latest version of the film, starring Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper, has a stage adaptation in the works!
POPULAR
A Star Is Born is a story that has been adapted on film several times, beginning in 1937, with subsequent films in 1954, 1976, and finally, most recently, in 2018, starring Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. Now, rumor has it that this story is finally hitting the stage, after a previous edition was rumored in 2017.
As BroadwayWorld reported in 2017, a stage version of the show, based on the 1954 film, was set to be directed by Bill Condon. No further information was revealed about this iteration, and it never came to fruition.
Now, Showbiz 411 has reported that, according to ‘sources’, a stage adaptation of the 2018 film is underway, and will feature the songs sung, and made popular, by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. 
This new version of the stage show will reportedly not be directed by Condon, but no other details on a director, cast, or timeline have been announced at this time.
Read the original story on Showbiz 411.
