The movie will be produced by Gianna Scott alongside her hubby Ridley through their Free Banner and stated that: “This project has long been a labor of love for both Ridley and me.  “The story is so epic, the stakes so high and the characters so richly are drawn that we were determined to get it to the big screen. To say we are thrilled to be teaming with Mike De Luca and his brilliant film group at MGM is an understatement.”

Besides MGM chairman De Luca said that: “Nothing typifies bold, audacious originality more than a film by Ridley Scott,” and “all of us at MGM are incredibly excited to be in business with Ridley, Giannina and the whole team at Scott Free.”

Ridley, who is currently filming ‘The Last Duel’, will complete it and kick start ‘Gucci’.
