While director Ridley Scott is reportedly eager to make a film about the famous Gucci dynasty, Patrizia Gucci, who is the great-great granddaughter of Guccio Gucci, fear the film will only sensationalise the family name. 

Sources say that the film will center on Maurizio Gucci, who took control of the family empire in 1983 until his death in 1995, when he was murdered. Maurizio’s wife, Patrizia Reggiani, was later convicted of murder and sentenced to 26 years in prison.

Patrizia Gucci recently told The Guardian that she believes a film about the family is offensive:

“It seems to me the idea is to make a very aggressive film. I find it offensive. It does not seem to me to be worthy of Ridley Scott, who is a great director.”
