Netflix has recently expanded its catalog by adding Spencer, the critically acclaimed 2021 film starring Kristen Stewart as Princess Diana. This addition allowed subscribers to stream the movie directly on the platform. Delivering a performance that was both hauntingly intimate and emotionally raw, Kristen Stewart left the audience speechless as she portrayed the life of Princess Diana.
Set during a tense Christmas at Sandringham in the early ‘90s, the film reimagined Princess Diana’s emotional struggles as she contemplates leaving the royal family. Balancing fragility and quiet defiance, Stewart embodied Princess Diana’s isolation, making every glance and hesitation feel deeply personal. Yet, even with such a transformative role and an Oscar nomination to her name, she has spoken out about Hollywood’s tendency to favor certain actresses in the name of 'women empowerment'.
The intrigue of monarchy has certainly caught the attention of Netflix as it keeps expanding its royal lineup, bringing more films and series that dive into the extravagant lives of the royals.
