Spencer director Pablo Larraín was drawn to Princess Diana — played by Kristen Stewart in the film — as both a mother and an unknowable cinematic figure. He didn't realize he was making a movie about motherhood at the beginning, but discovered it when he saw Stewart's interaction with the young actors who play princes Harry and William (Freddie Spry and Jack Nielen).
Larraín also talks with us about not treating the royal family as caricatures, why the film used real food in its opulent dining scenes, and how much of his "fable based on a true tragedy" is factual, and how much is novelistic imagination.
