Lady Gaga Reveals Oscar Winner She Wants to Work With Next

Lady Gaga has certainly put in the work to be called one of the best actresses in Hollywood. Coming off her role as Italian socialite Patrizia Reggiani in House of Gucci, Gaga has revealed who she’d like to share the screen with next.

“I have to say, one of my fellow Icon Award winners, Tom Hanks, I would love to work with Tom Hanks,” Gaga shared with ET’s Lauren Zima at the Palm Springs International Film Awards. “I think he is one of the most brilliant actors of all time.”

Gaga also praised Meryl Streep and Glenn Close as women she’s inspired by.

Gaga isn’t too big of a star to be reminded of the small moments in her career that have defined her. Her “made it” moment was when her family found out she’d be working with Al Pacino in House of Gucci:

“I can assure you they’ve never heard such a bellowing sound out of my father,” said Gaga. “My Italian father went absolutely crazy. ‘Pacino?! Pacino?! No! Stefani!’ He was so excited, my mother was excited, my sister was excited, everybody in my family was excited. … It was such a great privilege.“
