Singer-turned-actress
Beyonce
Knowles
has
recently
been
roped
to
play
the
female
lead
in
the
movie
A
Star
Is
Born,
but
the
production
of
director
Clint
Eastwood's
upcoming
project
might
postponed
due
to
her
pregnancy.
The
speculation
about
the
delay
in
shooting
started
spreading
after
Beyonce
announced
at
the
2011
MTV
VMAs
that
she
is
expecting
her
first
baby
with
Jay-Z,
whom
she
married
in
April
2008.
According
to
reports,
Warner
Bros.
Pictures
wants
to
begin
filming
as
early
as
February
2012,
but
Beyonce
Knowles'
first
pregnancy
might
force
the
the
studio
to
push
the
production
ahead.
Clint
Eastwood
is
yet
to
finalise
the
male
lead
for
the
film.
If
the
remake
project
is
postponed,
the
director
will
have
more
time
to
look
for
a
suitable
male
co-star
for
the
wife
of
Jay-Z.
A
Star
Is
Born
is
an
updated
version
of
a
romantic
relationship
between
an
alcoholic
star
on
his
way
out
and
a
young
female
artist
on
the
rise.
Clint
Eastwood
has
been
considering
several
A-listers
like
Leonardo
DiCaprio,
Christian
Bale
and
Will
Smith
for
male
lead,
but
no
deal
has
yet
to
be
sealed.
However,
Beyonce
Knowles
first
revealed
the
news
about
being
pregnant
with
her
first
child
while
attending
the
2011
MTV
Video
Music
Awards
at
Nokia
Theaters,
L.A.
on
Sunday,
August
28.
Later,
MTV
tweeted,
"OMG
Beyonce

made
a
huge
announcement
on
the
#vma
carpet!
