Actress Naomi Watts is concerned about what Princes William and Harry will think about her portrayal of Princess Dianaa in the upcoming movie Diana.
The actress is said to be worried it will upset the late Princess’ sons.
Watts says she agonised over accepting the role in which she went to extremes to perfect the beloved royal’s look and mannerisms.
“The biggest reason that made me pause was how the Princes were going to be feel about this,” she told U.K.'s Sunday Times.
“There was actually quite an eerie moment in London when I did see Prince William in a restaurant, and I got very nervous, because if I caught his eye I didn’t want to interpret a look and think he had a negative feeling about this idea, so I made sure not to look.”
She continued: “I do care deeply about how the Princes feel, of course. I am a mum of two boys. But it was a story that was bound to be told at some point, and it’s possibly fresher than people expected.”
Watts initially turned down the role of Diana twice.
“There was something very intriguing about this woman’s life. It was extraordinary. She always lived a privileged life, but there was nothing ordinary about the construct she moved into.
“I liked the idea that there was this fame – no one at that level can really survive it, I think.”
