It’s been published the first photo taken from the set of the new film Spencer and at first glance it is hard to think that the one portrayed is not Lady Diana, but rather Kristen Stewart, who plays the role of the eternal People’s Princess in Pablo Larrain’s new film project.
The image spread on social media portrays the Lady Diana with that melancholy gaze to which the media and the whole world had become accustomed, a gaze that contained all her feeling inadequate and distant from the British Royal Family: the transformation of Kristen Stewart is nothing short of incredible.
He film Spencer was written by Steven Knight (former creator of the hit TV series Peaky Blinders) and tells of that Christmas holiday weekend spent with the Royal Family at the historic Sandringham estate in Norfolk, where Princess Diana matured the decision to divorcing Prince Charles. A crucial moment in the life of the young Diana already widely told in the TV series The Crown aired on Netflix that has fascinated the whole world.
The launch of Spencer is expected after the autumn of 2021 and fans are already dreaming in front of the image shared on social media: Kristen Stewart, born in 1990, appears perfectly placed in the part of the Princess of Wales: the same iconic haircut, red jacket, black hat and veil dropped over her face.
Recently interviewed, Kristen described Spencer come:
“A dip into the emotional imagination of who Diana was at a fundamental turning point in her life”.
In addition to her, the cast includes the names of Timothy Spall, Sally Hawkins and Sean Harris. There are those who say that Stewart, who has long been involved in auteur films, the Golden Globes nomination could be played precisely with this independent project.
Meanwhile, in 2022, it falls the 25th anniversary of Lady D’s death and several commemorative events are expected, including the inauguration of the statue in London in her honor which could bring together the entire British Royal Family for the celebrations, including William e Harry who at the moment – as is well known – live separately, in two different countries, with their respective wives Kate and Meghan.
