Singer Lady Gaga and Oscar-nominated actor Bradley Cooper are joining forces to remake classic Hollywood musical drama, A Star is Born.

Warner Bros has given the go-ahead to the movie, and production will begin early next year in California. It will mark Cooper's directorial debut, and will be Gaga's first feature film acting role, reports deadline.com.

Cooper will also star in the film.

A Star is Born is the story of an aspiring young starlet who arrives in Hollywood and is helped by an ageing leading man. Gaga will feature as a singer who rises as her troubled lover/mentor's fame is falling. She will also compose and perform new music for the film.

The Born This Way hitmaker said on Twitter that she was "elated" to be part of the project. She had been rumoured to be joining the film since earlier this year.

The singer made her acting debut in FX's show American Horror Story: Hotel, playing the vampire countess. She will soon be seen in American Horror Story Season Six -- to be aired in India on Star World Premiere this September.
