Beyonce and Clint Eastwood are in talks to produce a remake of A Star Is Born.

Associated Press reports that Warner Bros has confirmed that the two are negotiating to film a version of the oft-remade 1937 film.

The film centres around an aspiring Hollywood actress and her relationship with an actor on the wane.

It was remade in 1954 with Judy Garland and James Mason and again in 1976 with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.

The producers of the 1976 version, Billy Gerber, Basil Iwanyk and Jon Peters, are slated to produce Clint Eastwood's new version.

Beyonce has long been attached as the lead but there is no word so far on the male co-star.

A Warner Bros spokeswoman said that deals have not been finalised but that negotiations are taking place.

In a cute little coincidence, Beyonce's husband Jay-Z had a Kanye West-produced song called 'A Star Is Born' on his 2009 album The Blueprint 3.
