Jared Leto on the set of Gucci House
Relatives of the late head of the fashion house, Maurizio Gucci, were offended by the upcoming film about his murder. Reported by the Associated Press.
The second cousin of the businessman killed in 1995 spoke about the creation of the picture. “We are very disappointed. I speak for the whole family. They steal family identity to make a profit. There are boundaries that cannot be crossed, ”explained Patricia Gucci.
It is noted that the woman tried to contact the director of the film, Ridley Scott, to express her complaints about the appearance of the artists who will represent her family members in the new film. “My grandfather was a very handsome man, like all Gucci, tall, elegant, with blue eyes. He is played by Al Pacino – short, in the photo from the set he is a fat short man, very ugly. It’s a shame, he doesn’t look like him at all, ”the businessman's relative was outraged.
She also criticized Jared Leto, who had to radically change his image for the role of Paolo Gucci. Patricia noted that such an image of her relatives is offensive to the Gucci family.
The creators of the upcoming picture have not yet commented on this appeal.
The film “House of Gucci” tells about the relationship of Maurizio Gucci, played by actor Adam Driver, with his ex-wife Patricia Reggiani, played by pop singer Lady Gaga. In particular, the tape will reveal the story of the contract murder of the head of the fashion house in 1995, the plan of which was approved by the ex-spouse.
