With 20 super-hero movies per year and as many live-action remakes no one asked for, these films come and go and hardly make an impact anymore. And you'd want Gaga do be drowned in all that?

Sorry, I have bigger ambitions for my girl.

They're part of a cinematic universe, so out of those 20 movies, Gaga will probably appear in the majority of them. It's not like it's hard to record those parts, and they bring a lot of money and mainstream exposure, so I don't think they should be underestimated. They could be very good for her career.

You really think money and mainstream exposure is what she prioritizes when choosing a project?

I highly doubt Gaga would do this - the media and GP would have a field day with this constantly putting Gaga and Barbra Streisand (who starred in the original funny girl and also the 70's iteration of 'A Star Is Born')  against each other like they did with Madonna. I just think it's a bit far fetch if i'm being completely honest. 

Wasn't she also rumoured to be starring in the broadway musical adaption of  "The Nanny" - I think that'd make a better fit tbh, I mean at the core of it all she's a street smart New Yorker right? it's perfect. 

Only difference would be babs would praise her not try to start drama

Apparently everyone here would  I guess I'm too old to understand the appeal, I stopped getting excited about super-hero movies a long time ago.

Gaga's voice is literally made for broadway. It's surprising she chose music and film acting before going for broadway.

As much as I try to love everything Gaga does, I hate Broadway  I’ll be supporting from afar ig lol. If the rumours turn out to be true, I hope she does a f*cking good job, as usual

Dude those tickets will be like golddust anyway bc she will most likely do a limited run

[Tinnitus15 50,643]

Didn’t GagaNow confirm she’s not doing it?

The twitter user in the OP said it was a joke, so yeah no.

Hey friends,

Sadly it's all but confirmed that Gaga is not doing this revival. It's a transfer of Michael Mayer's London production that Sheridan Smith starred in. (Sadly, Sheridan is not doing the Broadway production either).

Casting is due to be announced at any time but those holding hope for Gaga, don't keep those hopes up.
