Princess Diana the movie: Hollywood blockbuster to be made about divorce from Charles... but who will play her?

Princess Diana is set to be played by a leading Hollywood actress in a £30million movie based on the years before her divorce from Prince Charles. Oscar-winning South African actress Charlize Theron, 36, and Carey Mulligan, the 26-year-old English star of An Education, are both being tipped for the lead role. British film producer Stephen Evans, who has scored success with The Iron Lady about former Prime Minister Baroness Thatcher, is basing the film on Diana's bodyguard's memoirs. Evans said he wanted to show the world the truth behind what happened to Diana, who would have turned 51 this year, before her 1996 split from her husband. It will be told partially from the point of view of Ken Wharfe, who could be played by Ewan McGregor, 40. Wharfe was trusted to look after her sons Princes William and Harry, who called him 'Uncle Ken', and released a controversial book called 'Diana: Closely Guarded Secret' in 2007. Evans told the Sunday Mirror that the film, due for release in 2013, deals with the 11 years of her life 'just after' she gave birth to Harry. It will not cover her relationship with Dodi Fayed or conspiracy theories about her death in a Paris car crash in 1997. 影视帝国香港热片 热韩热片 欧美热片
