Naomi Watts has been circling an Oscar for a while now and this biopic may be her best shot at scoring gold. Chartering the final two years of the iconic “princess of the people,” Diana draws from the novel “Diana: Her Last Love” by Kate Snell which brings Diana’s secret love affair with Pakistani heart surgeon Hasnat Khan into the light.

From Oscar nominated director Oliver Hirschbiegel (Downfall), Diana brings together Lost‘s  Naveen Andrews who has not yet had such an opportunity to prove himself outside of the television realm.
