Gaga "elated" to land role in Bradley Cooper's remake of "A Star Is Born"

Singer-songwriter and actress Lady Gaga has landed a role in Bradley Cooper's upcoming remake of "A Star Is Born". 

This movie will be Cooper's directorial debut and Warner Bros. has now given the highly anticipated project the green light. Studio executive Greg Silverman confirmed that Gaga will be in the film in an official statement, which reads: 

"For those of us lucky enough to watch him work as an actor and producer, it has been clear that Bradley would make this transition to director. We are honoured that he is doing it, here, at his home - Warner Bros. - and with Lady Gaga as a collaborator and co-star. The world is in for a treat as these great artists craft an all new vision of A Star is Born."

Tweeting about the exciting news much earlier this morning, the 'Born This Way' sensation explained that she is "elated" to be involved in the project: "I'm elated to be directed by & starring w/Bradley in this project. He's a brilliant visionary artist. #AStarIsBorn #AStarIsBornCooperGaga."
