The first look of the upcoming Princess Diana movie starring Naomi Watts has premiered, giving a glimpse into the last years of the People’s Princess’ life.
“It was a story that was going to be told, and I just felt like she was a fascinating woman,” Watts told ABC last year about “Diana.”
She continued, “It’s delicate because her boys are still around, obviously. Very much so. But, like I said, it was going to be told. Maybe it was more recent than people [expected].”
The Olivier Hirschbiegel-directed film focuses on the last two years of Diana’s life. It portrays her effort to eradicate military landmines and how she became involved in a romantic relationship with Dr. Hasnat Khan (Naveen Andrews).
“Diana” opens in the UK in September while a stateside release date is pending.
