Twitter Has Lots of Thoughts About Kristen Stewart Playing Princess Diana In a New Movie
It was announced earlier today that Kristen Stewart would be portraying Princess Diana in a brand new movie called Spencer.
Directed by Pablo Larraín, the film “covers a critical weekend in the early ‘90s, when Diana decided her marriage to Prince Charles wasn’t working, and that she needed to veer from a path that put her in line to one day be queen.”
After the news broke, social media had a lot of opinions about the casting.
“Kristen Stewart playing Princess Diana is a joke. She hasn’t got any of Diana’s positivity, upbeat energy, angelic smile, her radiances… Please!” one Twitter user claimed on the social platform.
However, for every bad tweet, there is a good one about how Kristen is going to be amazing in the role.
“#KristenStewart with a new movie and, as usual, all the haters comment. They’ll always comment even if the role is Kristen Stewart as Kristen Stewart,” another said. “But, guess what? she is a queen, a talented, beautiful, hard working queen. So, stay healthy and f**U”

I'm convinced there is a conspiracy with #KristenStewart
so strange that she always gets these big roles but they always flop and never lives up to them.
I always feel like shes being pushed and forced upon us, she hasn't ever stood out in anything. #PrincessDiana #conspiracy— Cheezy Crackers (@CrackersCheezy) June 18, 2020
That bag of no-depth dust? Wow. That's truly a slap in the face of the grace and warmth of Diana. #PrincessDiana #KristenStewart

Oh dear? I doubt she is the right choice🤦♀️Princess Diana's face is full of smiles and emotions. Kristen stewart does not have a single expression on her face.

I love me some #KristenStewart but this is a bit suspect. I hope she does this role justice because this is potentially a career breaking move. Diana was a world renowned woman and KS better do this role the justice it deserves!!! https://t.co/R2td1KmovP

People moaning: Kristen Stewart portraying Diana in a new film.
These were probably the same ones who were up in arms about Heath Ledger playing Joker or Meryl Streep playing Thatcher. It's called…..ACTING.

If I see one more hate tweet about Kristen Stewart being cast as Princess Diana, I WILL set this app on fire

As a longtime #KristenStewart stan, she can absolutely convey the subtle emotion we see when rewatching Princess Di's interviews, I'm like the only person pumped for this I swear https://t.co/2toRA2MjIg

I understand some of the comments of the people from UK. It is a controversial casting. It is. But it is not on Kristen Stewart’s hability to perform, to demostrate, to capturate moments, because she is good. She is. And she doesn’t take these things lightly. pic.twitter.com/0jooDpQZzN

Against type, bold move because Princess Diana wasn't as she appeared, with "Acid Raine" a villain and savior. Could be epic. #KristenStewart https://t.co/bsMUTOJLmi

I can actually see #KristenStewart playing #PrincessDiana – lots of enigmatic staring and not much dialogue. Sounds perfect for her… 👍🏻

Kristen Stewart has proven her acting skill before, and her role as Princess Diana will only confirm that again.
The hate she gets for a few sour films will hopefully dissipate, but it's clear how negative an impact films like #Twilight have had.#KristenStewart https://t.co/xiHn3u9m6E
