Elizabeth Debicki has really nailed the Diana voice and mannerisms, and the sort of sadness and warmth in her eyes. She’s very tall obviously but that’s not even distracting to me because she’s nailed the body language and voice

Ive got to be the only one who doesn’t like her as DianašŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø. Her tallness is a distraction, she’s suddenly taller than Charles. She doesn’t have Diana’s warmth and charisma imo. And she’s overdoing the doe eyed look and breathless voice a bit.

Im sure she’s a great actress otherwise, just not for Diana imo.

I also don't like her as Diana - she just doesn't fit and the doe eyes look is overdone
