Eric is Norlar Aver Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 https://deadline.com/2019/11/lady-gaga-ridley-scott-movie-maurizio-gucci-patrizia-reggiani-murder-gucci-family-giannina-scott-1202774518/ Quote EXCLUSIVE: Ridley Scott has committed to direct a film about the tumultuous Gucci family fashion dynasty and the murder of the grandson of founder Guccio Gucci. Lady Gaga is attached to star as Patrizia Reggiani, the ex-wife of Maurizio Gucci, who was tried and convicted of orchestrating her ex-husband’s assassination on the steps of his office in 1995. She served 18 years before being let out of jail in 2016. It is the first project Lady Gaga has attached herself to since her Best Actress nomination in a breakout turn opposite Bradley Cooper in A Star Is Born. She won an Oscar for writing the song Shallow, one of a number of hits on the soundtrack. The combination of actress and director is already starting to draw interest but the first stop will be Fox/Disney, where Scott Free has its first look, and where Scott will next direct The Last Duel, with Matt Damon, Adam Driver, Jodie Comer and Ben Affleck in a coproduction between Scott Free and Pearl Street. The Gucci murder tale is scripted by Roberto Bentivegna, based on the Sara Gay Forden book The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour, and Greed. Scott plans to move quickly to direct the film after he first helms The Last Duel. He will produce the Gucci saga with Giannina Scott, and Scott Free Productions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

35MM-18 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) This sounds interesting. Considering that it's Ridley Scott we're talking about, I'll only have faith in it happening when the cameras start rolling (other than that, it's possible this could be his follow-up to The Last Duel).

BoxOfficeFangrl Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) The Deadline article literally says Ridley plans to make this movie shortly after he wraps The Last Duel. But then, Scott has been attached to many projects that ended up not happening with him at the helm, so, stay tuned, I guess. In terms of subject matter, this Gucci story doesn't seem all that far removed from All the Money in the World, which I liked except for Wahlberg. His filmography is kind of all over the place in a good way. Thought for sure the next Gaga album would be out well before there was solid news about her next movie role. Anyway, sounds like a part that could be a big contender for a Best Actress win. Edited November 3, 2019 by BoxOfficeFangrl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like Scott and Spielberg are trying one-up each other in the 'announcing films they never end up doing' department. When you have a whole Wikipedia page devoted to projects you never ended up doing, it gets kinda-sorta out of hand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMP Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Quote Though Ridley Scott still has to finish shooting his period drama The Last Duel, his follow-up is looking to land a monster cast. We are hearing Adam Driver, Jared Leto, Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Jack Huston and Reeve Carney are all in talks to join MGM’s Gucci. Lady Gaga is attached to star as Patrizia Reggiani, the ex-wife of Maurizio Gucci, who was tried and convicted of orchestrating her ex-husband’s assassination on the steps of his office in 1995. She served 18 years before being let out of jail in 2016. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

35MM-18 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Knowing Scott (not personally, but by reputation), this'll probably start shooting about 6 hours after he finishes post-production on The Last Duel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

35MM-18 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Gaga and Driver look pretty good. Also looks like the film is now titled House of Gucci after the book. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
