In addition, Jared Leto was seen as the businessman and designer Paolo Gucci in the historical film House of Gucci recently. His depiction has been receiving many backlashes and criticisms relating to real-life events and personalities. The actor opened up about it in an interaction with Screen Daily.
Leto believes that he has done his best in the movie, and has dug as deep as he could. He thinks that people getting pissed off doesn’t mean he is doing something wrong, so he doesn’t pay attention to reviews, comments, or critics. He also added that an actor would require breaking things a bit to pull it off, which everyone would not understand.
Leto portrays the one-time main designer and vice president of the fashion firm, who is depicted as an uneducated, talentless member of the family. The actor discussed in detail the character, outlining the same and his acting techniques as well, along with responding to the criticisms. He also affirmed that he is happy with what he has done, and so he is happy with the complaints too.
Helmed by Ridley Scott, the movie also stars Adam Driver, Lady Gaga, Jeremy Irons, Salma Hayek, and Al Pacino. The movie has also received tonal concerns, along with complaints about the presentation of many real-life characters. Several other actors also faced the same, turning the House of Gucci into one of the most divisive competitors of the era.
The movie follows Patrizia Reggiani and Maurizio Gucci, played by Lady Gaga and Adam Driver, whose romance transforms into an enmity over control of the iconic Italian fashion brand. The House of Gucci is based on the 2001 book titled "The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamor, and Greed," penned by Sara Gay Forden.
