&quot; Kristen is one of the big names in cinema today, &quot; he said in a statement. &quot; To play&nbsp;this role, you need something very important in cinema: mystery. Kristen can be many things and she can be very mysterious and fragile and, ultimately, very strong too - and that&#39;s what we need .The combination of these made me think of her. The way she responded to the script and how she approaches the character is very beautiful to see. I think she will do something impressive and intriguing at the same time. She is this force of nature. &quot;

He continues: &quot; Kristen&#39;s films are so diverse that they are incredible, showing different layers and her diversity and acting strength. We are very happy to have her, she is very committed. As a filmmaker, when you have someone who can bear so much, both dramatic and narrative weight just with your eyes, you have what you can offer and that is what we are looking for. &quot;

Kristen Stewart will be the second actress to play&nbsp;Lady&nbsp;Diana for the screen. Before her, the British actress Emma Corrin , unknown till then, was chosen for this role in the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficiel.be/art-culture/the-crown-emma-corrin-interprete-la-princesse-diana-dans-la-serie-netflix" target="_blank">season 4 of the super production of Netflix The Crown</a> . For his biopic, the director decided to dissect the story to tell the story of how a woman decided not to be the Queen of England.

Spencer production should start early in 2021.
