Before Kristen Stewart had strangers driving her around in Spencer, she was driven to school by her dad in his Porsche. She looks the same now as she did when she was 9 in that 1999 commercial.
Nicole Kidman was interviewing Kristen Stewart for Variety. The chat between the two potential Oscar nominees was going well until one of Stewart’s dogs decided to chime in. Actually, it barked just as she was talking about a three-headed animal. It is as if the pooch knew she was talking about it. What do you think?
Kristen Stewart sat down with W Magazine and talked about how she got the role of Princess Diana in Spencer.
Stewart said that Pablo Larraín called her asked if she wanted to play Diana Spencer. The actress says she didn’t know who that was. Then the director told her it was Prince Diana. I guess it would be weird to hear the late Royal being called by born name because we never her called her that.
As we know, Stewart accepted his offer, but she had to do a lot mentally to prepare to play the beloved legend. She told the interviewer, “I think physically seeing how much I could put myself through. How cold I could get. How skinny I could get. How tired I could get. I still felt 10′ tall.” She attributes the last one to the strength that Lady Di had throughout her marriage to Prince Charles.
Can you think of a time we ever saw Princess Diana appear weak? She stood tall and in charge, even with everything she was put through in front of the public and behind closed doors.
The first full trailer is out for Spencer, and can you see why the critics are raving about Kristen Stewart’s performance? I don’t.
She just doesn’t have Princess Diana’s beautiful essence. Stewart is also reserved, but not the same way as Lady Di. She is just not her to me. Stewart is more of a Meghan Markle.
What do you think? Will you go see it on November 5th?
After months of teasing us with photos of Kristen Stewart as Princess Diana in Spencer, we finally got a trailer. In print, you can see the resemblance. In video, it doesn’t work.
The actress is not as feminine as Lady Di. She is also too bony. I just see Bella from Twilight and not the woman we revered.
There was a sweetness to Diana, and Stewart has a toughness about her. That is why she was perfect to play Joan Jett, but not the right person for the Princess of Wales.
And don’t get me started on the actor who is playing Prince Charles. At least that is who I think that man in the trailer is supposed to be.
What do you think? Do you agree with the people who say she will get an Oscar for the role?
