Adam Driver and Lady Gaga are a force to be reckoned with. Driver, a scorpion; Gaga, a ram. Some may call them an explosive match, which seems fitting given their new project: Gucci’s house. The co-stars lead Ridley Scott’s upcoming murder drama about the murder of Guccio Gucci’s grandson Maurizio, played by Driver. Gaga first glimpsed the film on Instagram on March 9, where she and Driver posed for a snap-in character titled “Signore e Signora Gucci”.
Phew, there is a lot to unzip in these set pictures. First, there’s a driver with glasses who wears the shit out of a chunky Chris Evans-style sweater Knife out. Then Gaga gives her best ally Maine in Italy, complete with brunette hair and gold chains that would make Gen Z shake. Filming resumed March 10th in Milan, where Gaga seemed to be doing something shady while Driver was just looking after his business in the same market. You know Gaga’s character does business with that feathered hair and fur coat. On March 11th, the two saw some intimate moments in character while Gaga and Driver enjoyed a lovely Italian pastry. Then, on March 15th, Jared Leto entered the chat and looked completely unrecognizable while wearing a bald head, prosthetic legs and a purple suit for his role as Paolo Gucci. Two days later, Gaga and Driver were seen filming by the pool in Como, Italy.
Their actions and outfits could be a nod to the tense plot in which Gaga will take on the role of Patrizia Reggiani, Maurizio’s ex-wife. Patrizia was convicted of plotting Maurizio’s murder in 1995 after he left her for another woman. Known as the “Black Widow” of Italy, she served 18 years before being released from prison in 2016. There are still plenty of unknowns as the real story hits the big screen, but we expect a lot of will to unfold before the expected November 24th release date.
