Irons joins a cast that includes Adam Driver, Jared Leto, Al Pacino, Jack Huston and Reeve Carney.
It is the first project Lady Gaga has attached herself to since her Best Actress nomination in a breakout turn opposite Bradley Cooper in 2018's A Star Is Born. She won an Oscar for the song `Shallow,` one of a number of hits on the soundtrack. MGM landed rights to the Gucci package back in April with plans to go into production after Scott finished shooting The Last Duel, which goes back into production next week.
The Gucci murder tale is scripted by Roberto Bentivegna, based on Sara Gay Forden's book The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour, and Greed. Scott Free Productions and Kevin Walsh are also producers on the film.
Irons most recently starred in HBO's blockbuster limited series Watchmen, earning an Emmy nomination, and is currently in production on Netflix's Munich, an adaptation of Robert Harris' acclaimed novel, playing British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlin.
