    The Gucci family has made it clear that they are not pleased with “House of Gucci”. When speaking of the film which narrates the drama of Maurizio Gucci’s murder, his second cousin Patrizia Gucci accused the movie of stealing their identities to make a profit.

    “We are truly disappointed,” Patrizia told The Associated Press. “They are stealing the identity of a family to make a profit, to increase the income of the Hollywood system…Our family has an identity, privacy. We can talk about everything, but there is a borderline that cannot be crossed.”

    Patrizia also took issue with how her family members were portrayed in the movie. “My grandfather [Aldo Gucci] was a very handsome man, like all the Guccis, and very tall, blue eyes and very elegant. He is being played by Al Pacino, who is not very tall already, and this photo shows him as fat, short, with sideburns, really ugly,” she argued.

    Patrizia went on to rage, “Shameful, because he doesn’t resemble him at all.” She then weighed in on Jared Leto’s portrayal of her father, Paolo Gucci, who is shown with unkempt hair and a lilac corduroy suit. “Horrible, horrible. I still feel offended,” she stressed.

    Patrizia divulged that she has reached out to director Ridley Scott’s wife, Giannina Facio, to discuss “House of Gucci”. However, she has yet to receive a response. Giannina herself met with some of Gucci’s family members in the early 2000s to discuss another potential project, but she reportedly did not reach out to them for the new film.

    Starring Lady GaGa and Adam Driver, “House of Gucci” is based on a book about the 1995 murder-for-hire of Maurizio, one of Guccio Gucci’s grandchildren. It also tells about the subsequent trial and conviction of Maurizio’s ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani, who was slapped with a 16-year prison sentence for committing the crime.

      The ‘From Dusk till Dawn’ actress becomes the latest addition to the star-studded cast ensemble of the upcoming true-story drama about the murder of fashion icon Maurizio Gucci.

      AceShowbiz –
      Salma Hayek has joined the star-studded cast of Lady Gaga’s new movie “House of Gucci”.

      The Mexican actress will play clairvoyant Pina Auriemma in the drama, which chronicles the murder of fashion empire heir Maurizio Gucci.

      Adam Driver, Al Pacino, Jeremy Irons, Jared Leto, and Jack Huston will also appear in the movie, currently shooting in Italy.

      “So happy to have my good buddy Salma join our wonderful cast!” producer Giannina Scott tells Deadline. “I’ve been talking with her about this Gucci project for 20 years! Now it’s happening and she is a part of it.”

      Gaga leads the cast as Patrizia Reggiani, who was sentenced to 25 years behind bars in 1998 for plotting to kill her husband, Gucci, played by Driver.

      Maurizio allegedly angered Patrizia, whom he shared two daughters with, after he left her for another woman.

      While she was depicted as a hot blooded woman out for revenge and dubbed the Black Widow, her children blamed her actions on the aftereffect of the medical procedure where she had a brain tumour removed.

      Giannina Scott reportedly has been eyeing the movie for a long time. The producer started to pursue the movie, framed around the rise of a family business that denigrated into squabbles over control of the business and greed, at a time when Gucci was being corporatised.

      The script is penned by Roberto Bentivegna and is based on “The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour, and Greed” by Sara Gay Forden.

      The MGM movie is slated for release on November 24, 2021.
