#Spencer, a new biographical drama about Princess Diana, just dropped this incredible new poster showing off Kirsten Stewart in the lead role 😍

During production Kristen Stewart has spoken extensively about taking on the role of Diana - saying "#Spencer is a dive inside an emotional imagining of who Diana was at a pivotal turning point in her life"
"It is a physical assertion of the sum of her parts, which starts with her given name; Spencer. It is a harrowing effort for her to return to herself, as Diana strives to hold onto what the name #Spencer means to her."
"I remember imagery from the funeral as a really little kid," she said. "I remember being really viscerally affected by that.”
"I think that there is like, this sort of unbridled, open, intimate exchange that she's had with the public that was so striking for people that were like, used to a sort of different face of the royal family. That wasn't something I grew up with."

ICYMI: Superhero fans around the world have spent the past 4 weeks obsessing over #WandaVision - and we’re no different ✨ To get the lowdown on how the show was made, we spoke with showrunner Jac Shaeffer πŸ‘‡

First up, we asked about the challenge of bringing #WandaVision to life, she said: "We had a lot of goals. There were a lot of different levels. When I think about the early stages of breaking it – I remember a lot of headaches, and just being like, 'How do we hold this all in?'
"We had so many different systems and color coding and formats to make it all work. And the decision-making of what's too much? What's gilding the lily? What's not enough? All of those early development decisions are really hard." πŸ’ͺ
