Of course, as with any production based on true events, Versace has drawn criticism from people who lived through the tragedy, most notably Antonio D’Amico, the real life former lover of Gianni Versace. “The picture of Ricky Martin holding the body in his arms is ridiculous,” D’Amico told The Observer after seeing behind the scenes photos. “Maybe it’s the director’s poetic license, but that is not how I reacted. There has been so much written about the murder, and thousands of suppositions, but not a trace of reality.” Watch the teaser, below.
