But that’s not all. The movie also has Lady Gaga and Adam Driver in the lead roles, along with Jared Leto and Salma Hayek. Plus, it’s directed by esteemed director, Ridley Scott, so we know it's going to be good.
The House of Gucci won’t be streaming or showing in cinemas until the 25th November but we do have the first trailer to show you and it looks amazing. The movie is inspired by the shocking true story about the Gucci family empire behind the infamous Italian fashion house.
Based on the book titled The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour, and Greed by Sara Gay Forden, The House of Gucci tells us what happened behind the scenes and if the trailer is anything to go by, it’s going to be sensational.
The story spans three decades of love, betrayal, decadence, revenge - and ultimately murder. We get to see what the name means, what it’s worth, and how far a family will go for control of it.
The song called Heart of Glass from Blondie provides the soundtrack for the trailer. We see the Gucci fashion shows, the couple's wedding and wild nights at the disco which are all part of the drama leading up to the murder.
Lady Gaga plays socialite, Patrizia Reggiani, Maurizio's ex-wife who was tried and convicted of orchestrating his murder after he left her for a younger woman.
She served 18 years in prison, where she gained the nickname Black Widow, before being released in 2016.
"I don't consider myself to be a particularly ethical person," says Gaga as Patrizia, "but I am fair."
