Everything we know about "The House Of Gucci": Murders, infidelities and a lot of fashion

The cast of The House of Gucci has all the glamor that a film about the famous Italian fashion brand should. Lady Gaga, Adam Driver, Jeremy Irons, Al Pacino, Salma Hayek and Jared Leto are just some of the actors who share the screen in this cast formed by Ridley Scott. Filming began in February 2020 and is now in post-production. Just a few months ago we could see images of the actors dressed in costumes that will surely win the odd nomination at next year’s Academy Awards. Ridley Scott is not stopped by anyone, not even a pandemic, with which the experienced director meets the deadlines that the production marks to the letter. Although the truth is that this is a strange terrain for a director skilled in science fiction and period drama. It is possible that what is attractive about the project to the director of Blade Runner is the truth of its events related to the world of crime in such a glamorous context.A true story (possible plot spoilers) House of Gucci follows the story of love of Patrizia Reggiani (Lady Gaga) and Maurizio Gucci (Adam Driver) who was the grandson of the founder of the Gucci fashion empire. The couple lived more than 10 years of happy marriage, in which Patrizia became an icon of the press of the heart and in which Maurizio consolidated his power within his family’s fashion house.

Patrizia was diagnosed with a brain tumor and three years later hired a hit man who killed Maurizio on the job.All of this led to a series of trials in a short story based on the 2001 book The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Insanity, Glamor and Greed.A project that has passed through many handsThe house of Gucci is a project with the that Scott has been in his mind for many years. In 2006 he made a gesture in which Angelina Jolie and Leonardo Dicaprio were to be the protagonists. The production did not come out and it passed into the hands of Ridely’s daughter, Jordan Scott, who thought of Penelope Cruz to play Patrizia, but once again everything remained in pre-production. The name of Wong Kar Wai also came up in 2016, although in 2019 Ridley Scott returned to lead the project.The Gucci house is not enthusiastic about the project, in fact The Cut reported that Maurizio’s cousin, Patricia Gucci, told the Italian newspapers who feel cheated and betrayed by Giannina Facio, Scott’s wife and producer of the film for what told him that the final work would be a biographical piece of Gucci.
