London, March 13
Actor Tom Cruise is having talks to star alongside Beyonce Knowles in the new version of the classic film, "A Star Is Born", which is being directed by Clint Eastwood.
It's still very early days for the discussions, but Tom is said to be interested as he is keen to work with Clint, reports variety.com.
If he signs up, Tom will play Beyonce's older and troubled mentor.
Hugh Jackman, Will Smith, Leonardo DiCaprio and Christian Bale were also up for the role of the ageing musician who falls for Beyonce's character even though he's trying to turn her into a worldwide star.
