Ridley Scott Cursed Out One Reporter Over Comment About 'The Last Duel'

At some point over the Christmas and New Year holidays, an AMPAS member will open up the Academy’s screener app and begin watching Ridley Scott’s “The Last Duel.” The movie has significant buzz among members, but there is one great performance that has somewhat gotten lost in the zeitgeist, Jodie Comer’s impressive turn as the woman at the center of the historical drama, Marguerite de Carrouges.

Ridley Scott and Bradley Cooper are shooting wide smiles across cyberspace, trying to recall the last time they laid eyes on one another.“I haven’t seen you since Los Angeles — it was like a year and a half ago?” Cooper wonders aloud.

For 15 years filmmaker Ridley Scott wrestled with finding the perfect feature adaptation of Sara Gay Forden’s novel about the murder of Maurizio Gucci by ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani.  At one point Leonardo DiCaprio and Angelina Jolie were even circling the project. However, the 544-page book proved a challenge for several screenwriters.

Ridley Scott swore at a journalist after they asked him a question about the “realism” of his new film The Last Duel.The director was doing a junket about the medieval-set film starring Jodie Comer and Adam Driver when one journalist suggested it was “more realistic” than some of his previous efforts.“It’s a very realistic film,” the interviewer began. “It looks more realistic than Kingdom of Heaven or Robin Hood if you’re talking about -.”Scott then interjected: “Sir, fuck you.

Let it never be said that Ridley Scott does not speak his mind.

Now that Denis Villeneuve has proven that “Dune” can be faithfully adapted from its classic source material, film fans are beginning to look back at the earlier attempts with new eyes. And the biggest attempt to get re-examined is David Lynch’s 1984 film version, which has been controversial since its release.

House of Gucci director Ridley Scott has responded to the Gucci family’s criticism of the film, calling it “alarmingly insulting”.The filmmaker spoke to Total Film about the family’s complaints about Al Pacino in particular, who plays Aldo Gucci in the film.Scott said he tried to be “as respectful as possible by being as factual as possible” about the events which led to the assassination of Maurizio Gucci, but said he thought the family writing to the production was “alarmingly insulting”.“The

“House of Gucci” isn’t making the Gucci family very happy.

“House of Gucci” is now in theaters and people are absorbing the over-the-top cast doing their best (and sometimes not-so-good attempts at) Italian accents as they portray the opulent Gucci family. Though critics have either been in love with the choices on-screen or absolutely against the campy nature of the performances, the Gucci family itself is not happy.

Ridley Scott is responding to the criticism his film House of Gucci has faced from members of the Gucci family.

Nick Vivarelli International CorrespondentThe heirs of Aldo Gucci, who was chairman of the Gucci fashion house from 1953 to 1986, have issued a statement saying they are “a bit disconcerted” about what they claim is their inaccurate portrayal in Ridley Scott’s “House of Gucci” film.“The production of the film did not bother to consult the heirs before describing Aldo Gucci — president of the company for 30 years [played by Al Pacino in the film] — and the members of the Gucci family as thugs,

At 83 years young, director Ridley Scott shows no signs of slowing down. He’s already released two 2021 studio feature films within months of each other (“The Last Duel” and “House Of Gucci,” and he’s already prepping his next project at Apple Studios with “Kitbag.” That epic, a Napoleonic film, will see him reunite with “Gladiator” actor Joaquin Phoenix and “The Last Duel” star Jodie Comer as cameras are expected to begin rolling in early 2022.

A frightening twist. Idris Elba believed he had genuinely been shot by costar Denzel Washington while working on Ridley Scott‘s American Gangster.

Ridley Scott revealed Idris Elba had a terrifying moment while shooting “American Gangster”.

American Gangster, according to director Ridley Scott.The actor played a dealer called Tango in the 2007 crime film, alongside Denzel Washington, Russell Crowe and Chiwetel Ejiofor.Speaking to MailOnline, Scott recalled a scene where Frank Lucas (Washington) puts a gun against the forehead of Tango (Elba), explaining that the weapon used on set had a solid filled-in barrel with no bullets or blanks in it.To provoke a realistic reaction from Elba, Scott told the actor to lean his head against the

Ridley Scott’s next film may very well be coming to a cellphone screen near you — because he has very specific thoughts about why his latest flick, The Last Duel, bombed at the box office!

Ridley Scott is no stranger to films that underperform at the box office. Hell, one of his most famous films, “Blade Runner,” is often thought of as a box office bomb.

Ridley Scott is currently in the middle of promoting his second film of 2021, “The House of Gucci.” But even for a guy that has released two films in 2021, he still has a number of other projects in the pipeline, including a new Joaquin Phoenix film “Kitbag,” which will film in early-2022 and two new TV series based on his most famous franchises, “Blade Runner” and “Alien.” READ MORE: Ridley Scott Compares The “Exceedingly Disappointing” ‘Last Duel’ Box Office To His ‘Blade Runner’ Experience
