RAY LIOTTA is in talks to join Lady Gaga in “A Star Is Born.”

    The “Goodfellas” actor also will be joining Bradley Cooper in the musical remake, which will act as the American Sniper actor’s directorial debut.

    “A Star Is Born” centers on a young singer who, with the help of an already established but fading star, finds success.

    Judy Garland and James Mason headlined the 1954 feature, while the 1976 version of the film starred Kris Kristofferson and Barbra Streisand, who earned an Oscar nod for best original song.

    Jon Peters, Bill Gerber and Basil Iwanyk are set to produce alongside Cooper.

    Liotta (“Field of Dreams”) recently wrapped filming on Matthew Coppola’s “Alone,” in which he stars opposite Sophie Turner (“Game of Thrones”).

    Warner Bros. on Wednesday dated the feature for a Sept. 28, 2018 release. The studio also has dated the YA adaptation “Everything, Everything” for Aug. 18, 2017. Nick Robinson (“Jurassic World”) and Amandla Stenberg (“The Hunger Games”) star in the teen romance that centers on a girl who is allergic to almost everything.

    Other notable releases next August include Ridley Scott’s “Alien: Covenant” and Sony Picture Animation’s “Emoji” movie. The Dwayne Johnson action-thriller “Rampage” also has been dated by Warner Bros. for an April 20, 2018 release.
