Cint Eastwood To Direct Remake Of A Star Is Born

Here we go again. This time Clint Eastwood's name is attached.
Here is the IMDB report that was posted half an hour ago:

"This is a real shocker, and not just Hollywood but the rest of America should
love it. What a coup for Warner Bros getting The Man. Of course, Clint Eastwood
wiIl produce as well as direct the script by Will Fetters along with producers
Billy Gerber and Jon Peters (who made the infamous 3rd version of A Star Is Born
with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson). No male lead is cast yet, but the
possibilities are endless. The project, which has been at WB for several years,
had hoped to pair Beyonce and Will Smith. But how about P Diddy (who's turning
into a surprisingly fine actor along with Beyonce's husband Jayz), Eddie Murphy
(reteaming with Beyonce after Dreamgirls), or any white guy imaginable though
Robert Downey Jr and Jon Hamm are names that have been floating? Of course,
Clint has had a huge interest in music on screen."
