Academy Award-winning director Ridley Scott has unveiled the trailer for his much-anticipated new film, "House of Gucci."
Adam Driver plays assassinated fashion mogul Maurizio Gucci, while an almost unrecognizable Jared Leto plays his cousin, Paulo Gucci. Lady Gaga plays Maurizio's ex-wife, Patrizia Reggiani, who was convicted of arranging his murder. Maurizio was the grandson of the iconic label's founder, Guccio Gucci.
As Blondie's "Heart of Glass" plays in the background, Gaga says in an Italian accent, "It was a name that sounded so sweet... Synonymous with wealth, style, power. But that name was a curse, too."

"You need to take out the trash," Gaga's Patrizia tells her husband.
"But they're my family," Driver's character protests.
"So am I," the ambitious Patrizia replies.
"You picked a real firecracker," Oscar winner Leto's balding, bloated Paulo replies, rolling his R's in a way that would make any Italian language teacher proud.
As the trailer takes a dark turn, title cards flash on screen reading: "Money," "Family," "Power," "Betrayal," "Sex," "Loyalty," "Scandal," "Ambition" and, ultimately, "Murder."

In the final scene, she makes the sign of the cross, saying "Father, Son, and House of Gucci."
"House of Gucci" also stars Salma Hayek, and Oscar winners Al Pacino and Jeremy Irons. It hits theaters Nov. 24.
