Kristen Stewart talking about her role said that everyone's perspective is different and that there is no way to get anything right because what is fact in relation to personal experience.

Kristen stated that it's this really poetic internal imagining of what that might have felt like rather than giving new information. She said that they love the late Princess and don't have to hit a mark as such. Kristen's latest movie is a queer holiday film, titled The Happiest Season, which will release on Thanksgiving, November 26.
