After much anticipation, the complete trailer for ‘Spencer’, the biopic featuring Kristen Stewart as Princess Diana, has finally dropped. Many are already predicting that this role could earn her an Oscar. Set during the Christmas holiday of 1991, the film delves into Diana’s inner turmoil as she grapples with the crumbling marriage to Prince Charles, coming to terms with the fact that it’s time to part ways.
According to the film’s official synopsis, “The marriage of Princess Diana and Prince Charles has long since grown cold. Amidst swirling rumors of affairs and divorce, the royal family gathers for Christmas at the Queen’s Sandringham Estate. While the festivities include feasting and hunting, this year, everything will change. ‘Spencer’ imagines what may have transpired during those pivotal days.”
Stewart not only captures Diana’s accent and appearance but also delivers a poignant and haunting performance, particularly in a moment where she asks a friend, “Will they kill me? Do you think?” Shortly after this turbulent Christmas, the couple separated in 1992, leading to their divorce in 1996, just a year before Diana’s tragic death.
Although ‘Spencer’ will not be released in theaters until November 5, 2021, it has already debuted at the Venice Film Festival and boasts an impressive 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. While Emma Corrin received praise for her portrayal of a younger Princess Diana in Netflix’s ‘The Crown’, the buzz surrounding Stewart indicates she is a strong contender for an Oscar nomination. IndieWire’s awards expert, Max Harrison, mentioned that the Best Actress Oscar is “Kristen Stewart’s to lose,” highlighting how she draws viewers into the emotional struggles of Diana as she seeks solace from her two sons.
Critics have described ‘Spencer’ as an exploration of psychological horror, with Robert Daniels from Polygon stating that it is a “survivalist picture carried by an uncannily immersive Kristen Stewart, in the best performance of her career.” Alison Willmore from Vulture remarked that “the film is Stewart’s to carry, and she does so by embracing the absurdity of Diana’s situation while portraying her suffering with depth.”
Stewart herself understands the immense responsibility of playing such an iconic figure. She described ‘Spencer’ as a deep dive into Diana’s emotional landscape during a crucial moment in her life, emphasizing the struggle to return to her own identity. “It is a physical assertion of the sum of her parts, which starts with her given name; Spencer,” Stewart explained.
From her ‘Twilight’ beginnings to this potential Oscar nod, Kristen Stewart is certainly making waves.
