Better mark the calendars, A Star Is Born is going to be on TV next week

In what could be the best news to kick off the weekend, A Star Is Born is landing on Sky Cinema and NOW TV this month.

To be more precise, it will be arriving on Friday, July 12. The Oscar-winning musical tells the story of Ally, a struggling artist, who gets discovered by by seasoned but troubled musician Jackson Maine. Jackson immediately recognises her raw talent and reinvigorates her dreams to make it as a singer, but finds their relationship strained by his downward spiral into alcoholism and co-dependency. It starred Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper (who also directed the film). Combined with its songs, including the so-catchy-you-can't-help-but-sing-along Shallow, and...well, we know what we'll be watching next weekend.   It comes as it was recently announced the soundtrack to A Star Is Born has surpassed more than 6 million sales across the globe. According to Variety, the album - which was released back in 2018 - remains the highest-selling album of this year to date. The soundtrack has also been certified double platinum in the United States. Shallow, which was written by Lady Gaga, Mark Ronson, Anthony Rossomando, and Andrew Wyatt, won a 2019 Academy Award for Original Song. It also won two Grammys for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance and Best Song Written for Visual Media, as well as a Golden Globe for Best Original Song. Four other songs from the A Star Is Born soundtrack also ranked in Billboard's Hot 100: I’ll Never Love Again, Always Remember Us This Way, Is That Alright? and Maybe It’s Time.
