Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s failed marriage will be revisited in an upcoming movie starring Kristen Stewart.
While speaking with Deadline, director Pablo Larrain opened up about the project. He said that he is eyeing the movie as a potential candidate at the Cannes Film Festival.
The untitled movie will revolve around the critical weekend in the early 1990s when Princess Diana finally decided that her marriage to Prince Charles wasn’t working. During this time, the Princess of Wales decided to finally leave the heir to the throne.
Meanwhile, Larrain also talked about Stewart’s casting and said that the Twilight star is one of the great actors today. He also said that Stewart can do a lot of things and the actress can also be very mysterious, very fragile, and very strong, which is what they need.
The Princess Diana movie won’t discuss the tragic death of Prince William and Prince Harry’s mom. However, it will revolve around the late royal’s love for her two boys.
Larrain revealed that the movie’s script is written by Steven Knight. However, production has yet to commence due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Meanwhile, Princess Diana also made headlines this week amid claims that her eldest son, Prince William will have an emotional birthday because he misses her.
While speaking with OK! magazine, royal author Katie Nicholl said that it must be emotional for the Duke of Cambridge to not be able to share his birthdays with Princess Diana.
Even though it’s been over two decades since she passed away, the Princess of Wales is still a significant part of her sons’ lives. As such, Princess Diana will be in Prince William’s thoughts on his birthday.
Nicholl also said that the dad of three is doing everything that he can to keep Princess Diana’s memory alive. Photos of the late royal are reportedly displayed inside Prince William and Kate Middleton’s home.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge also share stories about Princess Diana to their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
Prince William will celebrate his 37th birthday on June 21. He and his family are expected to have a simple celebration at Anmer Hall.
While speaking with Express, royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams said that it is highly likely for Middleton to surprise her husband on his birthday.
Just like the previous years, Middleton may give Prince William photographs of their family taken by his wife.
