On Wednesday morning, the trailer for the much-anticipated, and much-delayed, Lady Gaga vehicle A Star Is Born hit Twitter. The film, directed by Bradley Cooper and starring Cooper and Gaga, is another version of the oft-remade film, which first starred Janet Gaynor in 1937, Judy Garland in 1954 and Barbara Streisand in 1976.

The clip is, like Lady Gaga’s Joanne, soaked in Americana — full of country music, pickup trucks and Bradley Cooper’s gruffy drawl accent.
But let’s be honest, Gaga looks mothereffing electric (chapel!) in the entire clip. Though she’s previously won a Golden Globe for her work on American Horror Story: Hotel, Gaga looks next-level in the clip and people on Twitter took notice of the actress’ chops.

Me 90% of the time: it’s so fucked up that movies that get nominated for best actress get shut out of other categories!!!
Also me: I hope Lady Gaga gets an Oscar nomination and the rest of the contributions are forgotten— The Zama Llama (@RealToddHaynes) June 6, 2018
Whether the film — and Gaga’s performance — lives up to the trailer is yet to be seen. According to the trailer, the film is set for release in October.
