LONDON - Hollywood actor Russell Crowe and singer Beyonce Knowles will star in a remake of classic movie A Star Is Born.
The “Gladiator” star Crowe is the new favourite to play an ageing, alcoholic musician who mentors and falls in love with a younger female star, reported contactmusic.com.
The film was a big screen hit in the 1930s and it has already been reworked twice, with Judy Garland and James Mason in 1957 and Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson in 1976.
Nick Cassavettes is onboard to direct the film.
