It promises to be Succession meets Inspector Montalbano meets Dynasty. House of Gucci, directed by Ridley Scott, opens in cinemas next week, starring a roll call of Hollywood actors, including Adam Driver, Lady Gaga, Al Pacino and Salma Hayek. Based on a book by Sara Gay Forden, it’s a tale of murder, money, greed, handbags, villas and yachts, all inspired by the Gucci family.
The film will be spectacular – judging by the glimpses released on Lady Gaga’s Instagram, it’s straight out of the pages of Seventies Vogue. But the real life story is even more incredible.
