"Bradley Cooper has denied that he will star with Beyonc\u00C3\u00A9 in director Clint Eastwood&amp;#039;s A Star is Born remake. Cooper was rumored in August to be in talks to play a mentor-turned-love interest for Beyonc\u00C3\u00A9&amp;#039;s rising music star in the upcoming movie.   The actor downplayed the likelihood of his casting in A Star is Born at the Hollywood premiere of his new film The Worlds. &amp;quot;[It was] just a rumor,&amp;quot; Cooper told E! News. Cooper further explained that while he believes Eastwood is &amp;quot;one of the best directors alive&amp;quot;, he&amp;#039;s not sure the project is a good idea. &amp;quot;There are like three versions already [of A Star is Born],&amp;quot; he noted. The original A Star is Born was released in 1937 and starred Janet Gaynor and Frederic March. A 1954 remake paired Judy Garland and James Mason, with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson updating A Star is Born 22 years later. Beyonc\u00C3\u00A9 confirmed her casting in Eastwood&amp;#039;s A Star is Born last summer, saying at the time that she was &amp;quot;so honored&amp;quot; to win the starring role.
