The first trailer for Spencer, the Princess Diana flick starring Kristen Stewart as everyone’s favourite royal, has just dropped and ooh boy, it’s fucking chilling. CHILLING.
Set in 1991, Spencer showcases the deterioration of Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage and the final years of her life (her maiden name is Spencer, hence the title of the flick).
In the trailer, we cop a glimpse at all the major players, from Charles to Camilla to William and Harry.
The trailer begins with Queen Elizabeth, perhaps the most major player, seeming ticked off that Diana is supposedly late, hinting at their strained relationship.
And that chilling part I mentioned? Well, towards the end of the trailer, Diana says she’s concerned that the Royal Family are going to “kill” her, then in the very next scene, we see her driving her car.
If that didn’t give you actual goosebumps, then I dunno what’s wrong with ya!
The cast also includes English actor Jack Farthing as the heir apparent to the throne, Olga Hellsing as Sarah, Duchess of York; Amy Manson as Anne Boleyn; and Niklas Kohrt as Prince Andrew (*voms*).
Have a peek at the trailer below:
Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight wrote the screenplay for Spencer, and Jackie filmmaker Pablo Larrain directed the flick.
Spencer is coming to Australian cinemas on January 26th 2022.
