Lady Gaga makes her long-awaited film comeback alongside Star Wars' Adam Driver in the first look at House of Gucci.

Half-biopic and half-crime drama, Sir Ridley Scott's movie retraces the infamous 1995 murder of fashion boss Maurizio Gucci (Driver) by his ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani (Gaga).

The murder made headlines around the world, plunging the entire House of Gucci into a scandal that remains infamous to this very day.

Scott's incredible international cast also features Oscar winners Al Pacino, Jeremy Irons and Jared Leto, plus Call My Agent! star Camille Cottin, Marvel's Eternals actress Salma Hayek and stage veteran Reeve Carney.

Shot on location in Italy, House of Gucci has attracted considerable controversy due to complaints from the famous family depicted in the movie.

Patrizia Gucci, one of Maurizio Gucci's second cousins, has publicly complained that Sir Ridley Scott's version of events is not true to life.

"We are truly disappointed," she told The Associated Press. "I speak on behalf of the family. (The filmmakers) are stealing the identity of a family to make a profit, to increase the income of the Hollywood system.

"Our family has an identity, privacy. We can talk about everything, but there is a borderline that cannot be crossed."

House of Gucci remains poised for an Oscars push regardless, as it is set for release in the heart of awards season later this year.

The film is set to hit US cinemas on November 24 and arrives in the UK two days later on November 26. In the US, House of Gucci will also be streaming on Paramount+.

  • Taiwan chipmaker UMC warns of muted auto, industrial demand

    Taiwanese chipmaker UMC said on Wednesday it expected a rise in wafer shipments in the second quarter as inventory levels for computing, consumer and communications segments improved, but warned of muted auto and industrial demand. Investors have been on edge about chip demand after UMC's much larger peer TSMC shocked the market last week by dialling back its expectations for the sector's growth this year, especially in more mature technologies used in sectors like autos. United Microelectronics Corp (UMC) focuses on more mature nodes, unlike Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC), the world's largest contract chipmaker, which is investing big in the most advanced 2 and 1 nanometre technology to power artificial intelligence (AI) applications.

  • After battle with Republicans, Biden to sign Ukraine aid package

    President Joe Biden will sign a bill into law on Wednesday that provides billions of dollars of new aid to Ukraine for its war with Russia, a bipartisan victory for the president as he seeks re-election and a boost to allies who have looked to Washington to support Kiev. Biden, a Democrat who is expected to face Republican former President Donald Trump, a Ukraine aid skeptic, in the November election, has pressed lawmakers for six months to approve more funding for Ukraine, which has been fighting a full-scale Russian invasion for more than two years. Despite bipartisan support, a proposed package of aid idled amid opposition mostly from Republicans closely tied to Trump.

  • EMERGING MARKETS-Stocks rally for third day; Indonesia delivers surprise rate hike

    Emerging market stocks rose on Wednesday, extending their recovery for a third day, supported by a more than 2% jump in the Hong Kong, South Korea and Taiwan bourses, while Indonesia's rupiah strengthened after the central bank raised interest rates unexpectedly. The rupiah rose 0.4% against the dollar after Bank Indonesia's surprise 25 bps hike, in efforts to support the currency which has fallen to four-year lows on growing risk aversion and a delay in the expected timing of any U.S. policy easing. "We reckon that today's hike will prove to be a one-and-done, and continue to believe that BI will start a gradual normalisation of policy in Q4, as soon as headline inflation falls below its actual 2.5% target," said Miguel Chanco, chief emerging Asia economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics.

It also helped Wall Street shrug off the company's weak results that included its first quarterly revenue decline in nearly four years and a lower-than-expected profit. "First impression for us is CEO Elon Musk is appeasing the market by accelerating new product launches," Jefferies analysts, led by Philippe Houchois, said in a note.
