Gucci heirs threaten legal action against Ridley Scott film House of Gucci over family’s ‘painful’ portrayal
The Independent says The Gucci family has threatened House of Gucci with legal action over their portrayal in Ridley Scott’s new film.
The heirs of Aldo Gucci (played by Al Pacino in the film) alleged that “production of the film” did not “bother to consult” them before describing the president of the company for 30 years and “members of the Gucci family as thugs, ignorant and insensitive to the world around them.”
“This is extremely painful from a human point of view and an insult to the legacy on which the brand is built today,” the statement, published by Italian wire service ANSA on Monday (29 November), read.
