PRINCESS Diana asks if the royal family “will kill her” in the official trailer of the upcoming film Spencer.
The movie – named after Diana’s maiden name – takes place at the royal family’s Sandringham Estate.
As she spends time with her family over the festive period, Diana realises that her marriage to Prince Charles has unravelled and starts to reevaluate her life.
The trailer begins with the Princess of Wales, played by Twilight star Kristen Stewart, turning up to the Estate late with everyone waiting for her.
She tells herself in the mirror: “Three days. That’s it.”
Prince Charles, played by actor Jack Farthing tells his wife: “You have to be able to do things you hate…
“There has to be two of you, the real one, and the one they take pictures of.
“Diana, for the good of the country.”
In frustration, the Princess of Wales replies: “For the good of the country?”
As the trailer continues Diana starts to realise what she wants in life.
The last scene shows her looking out into a field and as she turns around, she asks: “Will they kill me do you think?”
Many fans were left feeling emotional after watching the trailer, and in particular, that end scene.
One wrote on in the comments section: “‘Will they kill me ya think?’ DAMN!! Powerful line.”
Another said: “I cried at the last line…SO POWERFUL.”
A third added: “Honestly not sure why but the trailer brought me to tears.”
Meanwhile others are excited to watch American actress Kristen play the role.
A fourth chimed in: “Oh my gosh, chills, absolute chills all over. I think this is going to be so good. Love Kristen Stewart!”
Another commented: “kristen’s work is phenomenal, she’s a genius omg.”
The blockbuster, which focuses on Diana’s journey of self-discovery, is directed by Pablo Larraín and written by Steven Knight.
American actress Kristen Stewart is joined on screen by the likes of Stella Gonet, who plays Queen Elizabeth II in the film, and Richard Sammel who plays Prince Philip.
A young Prince William is played by Jack Nielen and Prince Harry is portrayed by Freddie Spry.
Back in 2020 it was revealed that Kristen would be portraying Diana in the upcoming biopic.
Some fans were left furious as they felt that a British actress should play the role.
Speaking on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Kristen explained: “It’s hard not to feel protective over her. She was so young.
“Everyone’s perspective is different, and there’s no way to get everything right, what is fact in relation to personal experience.”
Spencer is released on November 5 2021
