Entertainment One has been good enough to announce the release date for their new biopic Diana. In a recent press release, the studio says that the Princess Diana biopic will open in limited U.S. release on November 1.
The film chronicles the final months of Princess Diana’s life and her romance with Dr. Hasnat Khan, before a fatal car crash took her life in 1997.
The move obviously places Diana in the Oscar season, where Naomi Watts is expected to make a large impact as having played the title role. The film was previously shopped at Cannes where Entertainment One bought the rights, and the picture has plenty of eyes targeted at its release.
The picture also stars Naveen Andrews of Lost as Khan and Douglas Hodge as Paul Burrell.
