Hollywood star Kristen Stewart, who is set to play Princess Diana in filmmaker Pablo Larrain’s upcoming biopic, believes the film is a poetic internal imagining of the UK royal’s story.
Titled Spencer, the movie will centre around the Princess of Wales’ decision to leave Prince Charles while holidaying with the British royals.
Stewart, who most recently featured opposite Mackenzie Davis in Happiest Season, discussed the project during an interview with Entertainment Tonight.
“It’s a really meditative project. There are so many perspectives of her and of her story… it’s just not a black and white thing and it’s a very slippery, really emotionally-packed story for a lot of people,” the 30-year-old actor said.
