About this listen
Bradley Cooper is having a highly public and professionally significant week as headlines swirl around his latest directorial project and personal milestones. The major story dominating the entertainment landscape is the announcement that Cooper’s new film, Is This Thing On, will close the prestigious 2025 New York Film Festival. According to Variety and the Los Angeles Times, the film, which Cooper directed and co-wrote, will have its world premiere at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall on October 10. Is This Thing On draws inspiration from the life of British comedian John Bishop and stars Will Arnett and Laura Dern as a divorcing couple stumbling through midlife transformation in New York’s stand-up comedy scene, with Cooper himself also appearing in a supporting role. Festival director Dennis Lim described the film as a bittersweet, intimate departure from the epic scope of Cooper’s previous directing credits, A Star Is Born and Maestro. The first-look images were released this week, creating buzz about its distinct visual style and personal storytelling. Searchlight is backing the project, though the theatrical release date remains under wraps.
On the personal front, the ongoing romance between Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid continues to captivate both the gossip columns and mainstream outlets. Page Six and Reality Tea report escalating speculation, bolstered by insider sources, that Cooper is “considering marriage and kids with Gigi” and could propose within months. This speculation follows a series of increasingly public appearances, including Hadid stepping out with a visible ring for her 30th birthday celebration and the pair enjoying family outings with their respective daughters who are reported to be growing close. Over the past week, celebrity social media has tracked Cooper joining Hadid and her A-list friends, including Taylor Swift, at exclusive gatherings. While neither Cooper nor Hadid have made official statements about an engagement, the social signals and witness accounts have elevated the rumored proposal to the realm of likely future development, but it remains unconfirmed at this stage.
Adding fuel to the Hollywood rumor mill, Superman director James Gunn revealed in an interview with Mens Journal and was echoed by ScreenRant’s recent Instagram post that he had conversations with Cooper about a potential role in an upcoming Superman project, even specifically mentioning the character Lex Luthor. Gunn clarified the talks were brief and no commitments were made, so this remains industry speculation.
On social media, the official New York Film Festival Instagram page celebrated Cooper’s directorial achievement, and film and celebrity feeds have amplified both his professional and personal milestones, keeping his name at the center of entertainment discourse this week.
