American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace is a new television series on FX based on the life of legendary fashion designer Gianni Versace. I was so hype to see the commercials start for this particular season. I’ve always heard of that famous word Versace all the time but I had never truly took the time to learn about the history of Versace itself, along with the creator, Gianni Versace. So far the second season of American Crime Story is very shocking. They pretty much give a full rundown about everything that happened leading up to the tragic murder of Gianni Versace.

Andrew Cunanan, played by Darren Criss, is the first person we see in the first episode. He seems to be really….really upset about something and he seems to be in poor health. At first I thought it was a jelly fish on his leg but taking a better look, you can see if has a very bad rash on his leg. After a short amount of time, his sadness turns into pure rage by the end of the first episode. His character plays the man who shot and killed Gianni Versace in real life.

Gianni Versace, played by Edgar Ramirez is the main character of the series, and the legendary fashion designer of Versace. He is a very wealthy designer who lives lavishly. Based on his actual life and true events, the series highlights what led up to his death. We soon learn why Andrew was so angry even after the first episode of the season.
*Sidenote: You may remember Edgar Ramirez from our previous post Bright.*

Donatella Versace, played by Penelope Cruz, is the sister of fashion designer Gianni Versace. She is a fashion designer herself who soon becomes the head of Versace after her brother’s sudden death. You can tell briefly towards the end of the first episode that she seems to not be too fond of how her brother’s death is being handled by the local area police, along with how he is being discussed throughout the media. She also disapproves of how her brother handles his personal life through media even brother his death.
Antonio

Antonio, who is played by Ricky Martin, is the first person by Gianni Versace’s side immediately after he is killed, shown in the first episode of the series. He seems to be the most emotional person after the whole ordeal. From his character’s appearance throughout the second season of American Crime Story, you would think he was just Versace’s assistant, but in reality he is Versace’s long term companion.
