Director Oliver Hirschbiegel (DOWNFALL) is bringing the life of Princess Diana, aka Diana Spencer, to the big screen in the new biopic DIANA, starring Naomi Watts as the late Princess of Wales and today we have a look at the first teaser for the film. Princess Di, as she was called, is known as the “most photographed woman in the world,” which is highlighted significantly in the teaser and is something that would follow her to her death in 1997 in a tragic car accident. I’m not sure how well a Princess Di movie will do, but Watts is a fine actress to fill the role and I have no doubt that, if anything, her performance will elevate the film.
Take a look:
Here’s the synopsis:
The last two years of Princess Diana’s life: her campaign against land mines and her relationship with surgeon Dr Hasnat Khan.
DIANA, starring Naomi Watts and Naveen Andrews, is set to open on September 20, 2013 in the U.K., with a U.S. release yet to be announced.
