Beyoncé's Pregnancy Delays "A Star Is Born" Filming

Aug 29 | by Natasha

Her love is indeed on top...and in her belly...and that's Beyoncé's priority. So due to her newly revealed pregnancy, her lead role in A Star Is Born is reportedly about to be put on hold until after she drops the new Baby Carter.

Deets inside...

Deadline Hollywood reports Warner Brothers wanted to begin filming Clint Eastwood's new remake of A Star Is Born February 2012. Beyonce would either be in her last days of pregnancy or had just given birth around that time. So the studio is likely pushing back the production date. Plus, they still need to find a leading man.

I’ve learned that Warner Bros was hoping to start production on Clint Eastwood’s musical remake of A Star Is Born as early as February 2012. But now insiders tell me it “could push” because Beyoncé announced her pregnancy tonight at MTV’s VMAs. That will give the studio more time to settle on a male co-star for the singer/actress since Eastwood’s first choice, Leonardo DiCaprio, isn’t doing the pic.

Leading men being considered: Will Smith & Christian Bale.

The movie has been in pre-production for years and the mom-to-be seems to be the leading woman they're intent on keeping no matter what. At least they didn't drop her like the studio dropped Hilary Duff from the Bonnie & Clyde remake once she announced her pregnancy.

Congrats again to Beyoncé for all the BIG THINGS in the works!

You people crack me up you're

You people crack me up you're bickering and fighting over a woman who does not know you not only that could careless if you like her are not. Classic. You put these stars as a priority just the fact that some of you act like you have to defend her when she is not thinking about you. I have my favorite stars but I do realize that the are human and not trophies or need to be put on this GOD pedestal. SMH LMBO!!!! They read some of tis they would not want to meet you as they would think you are crazy

Stalker you still after me

Stalker you still after me following me in each thread? We all know that Beyonce can't act. I remember she wanted to get the female lead in Superman or Spiderman and she went around telling the tabloid reporters to pray for her because she was auditioning for the lead. Guess what? It wasn't the producers who put that out it was Beyonce herself and she didn't get the role! Beyonce needs to shut her mouth until she's on the actual set.

Gosh, you sure do "remember"

Gosh, you sure do "remember" an awful lot of what Beyonce has done in her life! Yet, you have the nerve to try and call someone else a stalker. Bwahahahahaha! Whew, so fun to get you silly people riled up over something that has absolutely no affect on your life!

Don't get upset! You are my

Don't get upset! You are my stalker. It's funny that you're following me all over this website. I made a mistake in that I should have replied after your comment and look how you alone knew that I was talking about you. Only a true stalker would react like that. Yes, I have a good memory. I had seen Beyonce on TV and she said she was going for the female lead in either Spiderman or Superman. I don't remember which one it was. It was a big deal because some of the die hard comic folks didn't want her to get it. They went to the movie website and complain.

Bitter Baby, you are nothing

Bitter Baby, you are nothing to get upset over. Oh, you made a mistake, huh? Sure you did. I knew you were referencing my comment because you have replied to everything I have said. So, who is stalking who? LMAO. Yes, stalkers tend to have good memories, particularly when it concerns someone that they supposedly don't care for. Funny how that works...but you continue to stay pressed! Maybe you can re-audition and show your stuff for Clint. Keep hope alive Bitter Betty! Bwahahahaha.

Stalker just look whose screen name you have to swagger jack? You responded to my comments. Stalker I remember everything because my memory is sharp! I'm not an actress and neither is Beyonce. Beyonce already showed her stuff that's the only reason she got the meeting with Clint.

FIGURES, THE PERFECT SCAM, I CALLED IT Too many movie blogs were complaining about Clint making a HUGE mistake so Surprise surprise the perfect excuse, girl said she wasn't having a baby before she accomplished an Oscar, girl was overly excited about working with Clint, girl said she didn't want to let him down, but girl suddenly stopped taking her birth control SURE THIS WAS PLANNED, SURE Clint fired that ass and planned the perfect cover up.

I don't think a final

I don't think a final decision about Beyonce playing the lead in the A Star is Born was officially announced. I never read anything officially announced. I think Beyonce took it upon herself to announce that she was the lead and that Clint Eastwood was directing her in the movie. Alot of the Hollywood reporters didn't think that this movie will ever see a production set because it was supposed to be made back when Whitney made the Bodyguard. I think it is a good thing that Beyonce got pregnant because the producers can now look for a singer who can really act to pull off this movie.

Well, its a good thing that Clint Eastwood is the director and not you! You also have not seen Clint issue a statement saying that Beyonce is NOT starring in the movie either. What happened - did you audition too but lost out to Beyonce? On the real, that would be awful because Beyonce is not that great of an actress. It's just so funny that you are so distraught over her being in the movie. Once the movie is made and Beyonce is walking the red carpet with Clint and whomever the leading man is, you will still be on your stance that she is not going to be in the movie. LOL, you are the true definition of pathetic!

First she got pregnant to

First she got pregnant to help build her album sales, but from the looks of her stomach she was pregnant before it was even released. Now she is pregnant to hide that fact that according to you she was fired from the movie. You people on here are something else. Maybe she got pregnant because she was ready to have her husband's child.

Let's be honest here we all

Let's be honest here we all want that baby to look like her ,but Jay Z is a second time offender. News flash this is not his first kid he has another baby boy who lives in Trinidad with the mother of the child. Now that his wife is pregg he needs to be a real family man and include that other child so those kids can know each other.

Yeah, but it makes it no less scary to develop a personality even if you do have support. Let's face it it's hard not to want to bask in the glow of a relationship for a little while longer. It was cute taking a "year" just for yourselves. Sometimes we get comfortable in roles and we're not ready to give them up.

Its ashame my people don't

Its ashame my people don't know good when good is staring them in the face. Don't know great when great is staring them in the face. Don't know blessings when blessings is staring them in the face which means they don't know God when his blessings are all around. I blame the church. The church taught us so much about the what the devil likes they forgot to teach us about God's likes (Godlike behavior). God is good, God is greatness, God is knowing and acknowleging the blessings all around. And God is seeing that ear to ear smile on Jay n Bey's face last night and feeling the energy of all that were watching and happy for them at that moment!!! That is God. That is all!
