Emma Corrin was amazing in her portrayal of Diana and captured her youth and zest for life so perfectly. Watching it back now we’re at season 6, and the end of Diana’s life, my gosh does it make me sad.
I know people are quick to critique this show, and rightly so, but the casting of Diana (both actresses) was lightning striking twice. Both amazing.
After watching Elizabeth Debicki’s masterful portrayal of Diana in seasons five and six, I went back and watched season four’s Diana played by Emma Corrin. It was a performance I loved at the time, but after seeing Debicki, I felt that Emma Corrin’s performance felt caricaturish (is that a real word?) at times. Their mannerisms and body language didn’t have a natural flow like Debicki's. It came off as too rigid and practiced. It became very obvious that she is playing Diana rather than being Diana, if that makes sense. The press meet scene after the engagement, especially, stood out to me.
Is it just me, or do any of you guys feel this way?
