  • Adam Driver starred in two Ridley Scott films in 2021, The Last Duel and House of Gucci.
  • The legendary director praises Driver as “one of the best in the business” in this exclusive behind-the-scenes clip.

Still just 38-years-old, Adam Driver has already established himself as one of the elite A-list actors in Hollywood, having starred in massive franchises such as Star Wars and prestige drama films such as Silence, BlacKkKlansman, Marriage Story, and more.

During his rise to superstardom, Driver has worked with some of the industry’s elite filmmakers, ranging from the likes of Noah Baumbach to Martin Scorsese to the legendary Ridley Scott, who still remains at the top of his game after decades in the business.

Scott is obviously quite a fan of Driver’s, as he not only cast the Oscar nominee to star in his two 2021 films — The Last Duel and House of Gucci — but he recently praised the star as being a “rare breed” and “one of the best in the business right now” in this exclusive behind-the-scenes look at House of Gucci, which details how Driver approached his role and the sleek style that was Maurizio Gucci.

Directed by four-time Academy Award nominee Ridley Scott, the captivating star-studded film about the iconic Italian fashion house showcases incredibly powerful and emotional performances from Academy Award winner Lady Gaga as Patricia Reggiani and Academy Award nominee Adam Driver as Maurizio Gucci.

In addition to Gaga and Driver, House of Gucci boasts an extraordinary ensemble cast including Academy Award winner Jared Leto, Academy Award winner Jeremy Irons, Jack Huston, Academy Award nominee Salma Hayek and Academy Award winner Al Pacino. The film will be available on-demand beginning on February 22.
