A Star is Born

Bradley Cooper's critically-acclaimed film starring himself and Lady Gaga is coming to home video in February.

As previously reported, Warner Brothers is working on A Star is Born for 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray and Blu-ray later this year, and now the date has been set for February 19.

In A Star is Born, Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga fuse their considerable talents to depict the raw and passionate tale of Jack and Ally, two artistic souls coming together, on stage and in life. Theirs is a complex journey through the beauty and heartbreak of a relationship struggling to survive.

In this new take on the iconic love story, four-time Oscar nominee Cooper ("American Sniper," "American Hustle," "Silver Linings Playbook") makes his directorial debut, and also stars alongside multiple award-winning, Oscar-nominated music superstar Gaga in her first leading role in a major motion picture. Cooper portrays seasoned musician Jackson Maine, who discovers and falls in love with struggling artist Ally. She has given up on her dream to become a successful singer until she meets Jack, who immediately sees her natural talent.

The film also stars Andrew Dice Clay, with Dave Chappelle and Sam Elliott. In addition to playing Ally, Gaga performs original songs in the film with Cooper, which they wrote with a handful of artists, including Lukas Nelson, Jason Isbell and Mark Ronson. The music is original and all vocals for the movie were recorded live during filming. "A Star Is Born" recently received five Golden Globe nominations, including Best Motion Picture – Drama; Best Director – Motion Picture, Bradley Cooper; Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama, Lady Gaga; Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama, Bradley Cooper; and Best Original Song in a Motion Picture, "Shallow." The film also received three awards from the National Board of Review, including Best Director Bradley Cooper, Best Actress Lady Gaga, and Best Supporting Actor Sam Elliott, as well as four Grammy Award nominations for "Shallow" for Record Of The Year, Song Of The Year, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, and Best Song Written For Visual Media.

The 4K UHD will feature a Dolby Vision HDR presentation of the film, a Dolby Atmos track, and supplements include:

    Jam Sessions and Rarities ("Baby What You Want Me To Do","Midnight Special", and "Is That Alright")

    The Road to Stardom: Making A Star is Born

    Music Videos ("Shallow", "Always Remember Us This Way", "Look What I Found", and "I'll Never Love Again")
