MGM accquires Ridley Scott’s Gucci (Gaga is playing Patrizia Reggiani)

[GaGaAst 13,023]

 

The Hollywood Reporter has learned that MGM is acquiring Ridley Scott’s Gucci — a true crime drama about the murder of fashion trailblazer Maurizio Gucci — and is in negotiations for Lady Gaga to star. The studio beat out Netflix and at least one other streamer for the project about the machinations behind the fabled fashion house. MGM won out partly because it offered the opportunity for a theatrical release, a key appeal for Scott, according to sources.

Gaga would star as Patrizia Reggiani, Gucci’s ex-wife who was convicted of orchestrating his hit after he had an affair. The script by Roberto Bentivegna is based on The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour, and Greed, written by Sara Gay Forden and published by William Morrow in 2001. The book used the murder to delve into the complex yet dishy family history, filled with infighting, corporate intrigue and gobs of money. Maurizio Gucci was the grandson of Guccio Gucci and ran the company in a declining period in the 1980s after wresting it out of an uncle’s hands.

This means the project is almost confirmed and will soon roll out for production. Earlier she was rumoured to play but this means the project is go ahead and we can see Gaga being in it.

This is definitely still happening. 

Gaga mentioned movies in her recent interview, and this rumour keeps resurfacing.

It's basically confirmed at this point, lol.

The talks of her being in the movie yes but at the time it was a project floating around for grabs but now it's been confirmed (Hollywood Reporter is a reliable source) that a studio endorsed it so that makes it more concrete than just an idea.

So, maybe two more roles ahead? Gucci and maybe Cleopatra... We stan!
