Keira Knightley might get picked to play Princess Diana role. Even though Keira is a dark haired beauty, wigs can be used to ceover it up to make her look like the blonde Diana. But then what about her brown eyes? Who wanted to pick Keira anyway?

Keira is British, therefore her accent will seem natural to those watching. And she is tall, slender and graceful like Diana was. From Celebuzz:

British newspaper the Daily Mail reports that the 26-year-old Pirates of the Caribbean beauty is at the top of the list to play the late Diana, Princess of Wales in an upcoming biopic about the ill-fated royal, who died in 1997 during a car chase with the paparazzi in Paris.

According to a source, film company Pathe—which scored hits with the 2006 royal biopic The Queen and Knightley’s 2008 offering The Duchess—has already begun work on the project with a projected 2011 release date, and the company and wants Knightley on board to play the lead role.

I’m not sure if I can see her in the role or not. She’s played historical characters very well who were British. But in the 1980s and 1990s, that’s not that historical. DO you think Keira should get the role?
