The Gucci heirs want to file a complaint against the film "House of Gucci"

Ridley Scott's film takes on one of the most resounding news stories of Italy in the 1990s, the murder of Maurizio Gucci (played by Adam Driver), heir to the Italian house, ordered by his ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani (Lady Gaga).

The heirs of the Italian luxury house Gucci unhappy. They threatened on Monday 29 November to take legal action against the Ridley Scott film House of Gucci, released last Wednesday in French cinemas, which they accuse of depicting the family members as "hooligans". The film is based on one of the most resounding events in Italy in the 1990s, the murder of Maurizio Gucci (played by Adam Driver), heir to the Italian fashion house, ordered by his ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani (Lady Gaga).


"The Gucci family reserves the right to take any initiative to protect its name and image, as well as those of its relatives," assures a letter published by the Italian news agency ANSA and signed by the heirs of Aldo Gucci (1905-1990), the founder of the luxury brand. The letter states that the Gucci heirs were particularly hurt by the description of Patrizia Reggiani, "a woman convicted of ordering the murder of Maurizio Gucci (presented) as a victim". She also regrets that Aldo Gucci and his relatives are portrayed as "hooligans, ignorant and insensitive to the world around them".
