One Of Kristen Stewart's Best Performances Is Coming To Netflix Next Month

One of the best performances of Kristen Stewart's career is coming to Netflix next month. Though her breakout roles came in David Fincher's Panic Room, Zathura: A Space Adventure, and Into the Wild, Stewart has been synonymous with Bella Swan and The Twilight Saga for much of her career, starring in the five franchise films from 2008 to 2012. In those five films, Stewart's performance as Bella was widely panned, which led to her being unfairly labeled as an emotionless actress.

After starring in another big-budget production, 2012's Snow White and the Huntsman, Stewart shifted her focus to indie projects and, just like her Twilight co-star Robert Pattinson, reinvented herself as an actor. During the remainder of the 2010s, Stewart starred in the dramas Camp X-Ray, Still Alice, and Equals, but began garnering critical acclaim for her collaborations with director Olivier Assayas in Clouds of Sils Maria and Personal Shopper. In 2020, Stewart returned to the mainstream with lead roles in Charlie's Angels, Happiest Season, and Underwater, but the following year, she delivered one of the finest performances of her career.

Why You Should (Or Shouldn't) Watch Spencer On Netflix

Kristen Stewart Is Great, But Pablo Larraín's Style Is Challenging

As previously mentioned, Spencer features one of Kristen Stewart's finest performances, whose portrayal of Princess Diana earned her an Academy Award for Best Actress. While Stewart's nuanced performance does ground the movie's more imaginative moments, director Pablo Larraín's style in Spencer can frustrate or even bore some audiences with its unconventional portrayal of the subject's life. While almost anyone can appreciate Kristen Stewart's excellent performance in Spencer, those hoping for a conventional or straightforward depiction of Diana's life may find themselves disappointed.
