MGM released Thursday the first trailer for the upcoming movie "House of Gucci".
The movie, directed by Ridley Scott, details the assassination of Italian businessman Maurizio Gucci (Adam Driver) and the aftermath of his death after his ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani (Lady Gaga) hired a hitman to kill him.
The duo married in 1973 and finalized in 1991 their porce. The former couple’s marriage ended in May 1985 after the businessman left his wife for a younger woman after 12 years of marriage.
Reggiani, then Maurizio’s wife, was convicted of orchestrating Guccio Gucci’s grandson’s death after he had an affair. She served 18 years in prison, where she gained the nickname Black Widow, before being released in 2016.
