The beauty and dept of the poster is already teasing the intensity and drama that will be packed into the film.
On June 17, 2020, Stewart’s casting for the role of Dianna was announced by Deadline.
“Kristen can be many things, and she can be very mysterious and very fragile and ultimately very strong as well, which is what we need,” Larraín, the directer said to Deadline. “The way she responded to the script and how she is approaching the character, it’s very beautiful to see. I think she’s going to do something stunning and intriguing at the same time… As a filmmaker, when you have someone who can hold such a weight, dramatic and narrative weight just with her eyes, then you have the strong lead who can deliver what we are looking for.”
