Keira Knightley to play Princess Diana in new biopic?

Keira Knightley is supposedly the frontrunner for the leading role in a new movie based on the life of the British Princess Diana. At the Cannes film festival there was a heavy bidding war going on for the rights to the book Diana and the Papparazzi, which movie producers hope will turn into a very successful movie. Film producer Quentin Reynolds is one of the people bidding on the book, and he had this to say to WENN about the movie, and Knightley's role in it. "Already the word in Hollywood is 'get Knightley'. It's a story that has everything: pathos, tragedy, comedy, adventure...and Princess Diana. For every pound The Queen makes, a film about Diana will make ten."
