The popular movie A Star is Born, starring Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga, is coming to Hulu on November 8th.
The movie A Star is Born features Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga as Jack Maine and Ally Campana. It tells the story of a seasoned musician, Jack, battling alcoholism, who falls for a talented newcomer, Ally. As Ally’s career takes off, their relationship is tested, and Jack must also confront his personal struggles with her growing success.
Bradley Cooper didn’t just act in A Star is Born – he also directed, produced, and co-wrote it. This was his first time directing, and the film was a huge success with both critics and audiences. Made on a budget of only $36 million, it went on to earn over $436 million around the world. The film was also a favorite among industry professionals, receiving eight Academy Award nominations and five Golden Globe nominations. Its soundtrack was incredibly popular too, winning a BAFTA and four Grammy Awards.
A Star is Born is receiving widespread praise, earning a ‘Certified Fresh’ rating of 90% on Rotten Tomatoes based on reviews from over 500 critics. Audiences also love the film, giving it an 80% approval rating from more than 10,000 viewers.

Cooper’s Directing Put a Fresh Spin on A Star is Born’s Beloved Story
The story of A Star is Born has been retold several times over the past century, and the 2018 film offers a contemporary version. It’s actually the fourth American movie based on this tale, which first appeared in 1937 with Janet Gaynor and Fredric March. A musical remake followed in 1954 with James Mason. Then, in the 1970s, Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson starred in another adaptation.
Bradley Cooper’s remake of A Star is Born received acclaim for both honoring the previous versions of the story and offering a new perspective. Unlike earlier films, it didn’t portray the female lead’s success as the primary reason for the male lead’s struggles. Instead, the movie provided a more complex and heartbreaking depiction of his battle with alcoholism and his eventual decline. By combining a classic love story with a realistic look at the perils of addiction and the music industry, the film resonated strongly with audiences.
A Star is Born will be streaming on Hulu on Nov. 8.
