The primary have a look at Yolanda Kettle as Princess Diana in an upcoming play about her notorious 1995 “Panorama” interview is here.
The 35-year-old actress looks similar to the late Princess of Wales in photos released Wednesday from “The Interview,” which can debut at London’s Park Theatre at the top of the month.
Kettle donned a virtually an identical blazer and skirt that Diana wore to talk with disgraced journalist Martin Bashir.
Tibu Fortes, 33, will portray Bashir.
Kettle is just not recent to acting within the lifetime of the royals. She previously appeared on Netflix’s “The Crown” because the wife of inventor Jeremy Fry.
“The Interview” is described as giving “an insight into the story behind the interview: the lady who gave it, the person who made it occur and the institution that broadcast it.”
Nevertheless, playwright Jonathan Maitland previously revealed that the play will only include “substantial chunks” of the interview for copyright reasons — and out of respect for Prince William.
Diana’s eldest son demanded a boycott of the interview in 2021 after an investigation by UK Supreme Court Justice Lord Dyson found that the BBC had covered up Bashir’s “deceitful behavior” as he apparently faked documents to earn Diana’s trust.
“The things that led to the famous interview and the events that got here after it revealed much about our country and its institutions,” Maitland told the Day by day Mail concerning the historic conversation.
“It’s definitely the stuff of drama and I can’t wait to see our superb solid and good director Michael Fentiman bring all of it to life.”
The Post has contacted reps for Prince William, in addition to Prince Harry, for comment.
Part 1 of the series finale of “The Crown” is ready to premiere on Nov. 16, and Part 2 will premiere on Dec. 14.
