Kristen Stewart is set to play Princess Diana in “Spencer,” which Pablo Larraín (“Jackie”) will direct, an individual with knowledge of the project told TheWrap.

Steven Knight (“Peaky Blinders,” “Taboo”) wrote the screenplay and production is set to begin in early 2021. Larraín is producing alongside Juan de Dios Larraín through their Fabula banner. Jonas Dornbach, Janine Jackowski and Paul Webster are also producing.

FilmNation Entertainment will represent the international rights and will introduce the film to buyers at the upcoming virtual Cannes market. CAA Media Finance, which arranged financing for the film, will represent U.S. distribution rights. Endeavor Content is co-repping domestic sales.

“Spencer” will look at Princess Diana over the course of one of her final Christmas holidays with the House of Windsor in their legendary Sandringham estate.

Bad casting.

LOL

[BenLurkin]

Need someone who can play a scary/crazy rich girl.

[Blue Highway]

Princess Diana always wore a smile on her face. Kristin Stewart never smiles. This will be Oscar material if she can pull this 0ff.

For the vision-challenged members.

Yeah, I look at her and see Princess Diana. /sarcasm

Not that I really care. I will never bother seeing it. 8>)

[Sans-Culotte]

I never found Diana to be attractive at all.

[NotSoFreeStater]

Same. I think Kate is much nicer looking.

[shotgun]

as I am one of those I thank you!

[fieldmarshaldj]

I agree. That “dowdy” English type. Not very bright, either. Though she was used by the royals.

[EQAndyBuzz]

She was good in “American Ultra.”

[fieldmarshaldj]

I was talking about Diana, not Kristen. She’s kinda cute, but something “off” about her.

Mr Ed was not available to play Camilla

[leaning conservative]

Brilliant!

[60Gunner]

Kristen Stewart has worse acting chops than a piece of low-density particle board left out in a monsoon.

[Quanah]

“She runs the gamut of emotions from A to B.” Wonder who’s playing Charles....Steven Segal?

[Buckeye McFrog]

Isn’t she the one who sat in the FBI’s office and cried for two hours after they told her that her naked selfies had been hacked from the cloud?

[bgill]

That nasty “Twilight” creature. Just no.

Hope Diana will tell little Harry to stay away from gold diggers.

[bgill]

Where’s the diversity in that?

Krappernick would be great as Charles. He’s got that bored spacey look down pat.
