Kristen
Stewart
and
Lady
Gaga
are
currently
basking
in
the
success
of
their
recently
released
movies
Spencer
and
House
of
Gucci
respectively.
While
Kristen
essayed
the
role
of
the
late
Princess
Diana
in
Spencer
which
traced
her
forlorn
days
before
separating
from
her
former
husband
Prince
Charles,
Gaga
played
the
controversial
Patricia
Reggiani
who
was
speculated
to
have
orchestrated
an
attack
on
her
former
husband
and
owner
of
the
fashion
label
Gucci,
Maurizio
Gucci.
In
LA
Times'
The
Envelope's
Actress
Roundtable
that
also
had
actresses
Jennifer
Hudson,
Kirsten
Dunst,
Penelope
Cruz
and
Tessa
Thompson,
Gaga
and
Stewart
opened
up
about
the
challenges
they
faced
to
get
into
the
skin
of
the
character
and
how
their
prep
session
sometimes
took
a
toll
on
their
mental
health.
Both
Kristen
Stewart
and
Lady
Gaga
were
quipped
on
working
hard
to
get
the
accent
for
their
characters
right.
Lady
Gaga,
who
spent
six
months
speaking
as
her
character
Patricia
Reggiani
to
get
the
nuances
right
said,
"My
process
was
very
much:
How
do
I
get
so
inside
of
the
accent
that
I
can
just
completely
forget
about
it?
And
then
do
all
the
work
of
the
script
analysis,
so
that
when
I
get
to
set,
I
can
throw
all
of
that
out
the
window
and
just
be
in
the
moment."
While
Kristen
Steward
who
had
the
mammoth
task
to
get
the
intricate
accent
of
Princess
Diana
correct
said,
"I
think
for
me,
I
needed
to
be
this
kind
of
a
live
wire
-
as
spontaneous
as
I
possibly
could.
In
all
of
my
research,
I
felt
like
when
[Diana]
walks
into
a
room,
it
just
feels
like
the
ground
starts
shaking.
There's
this
tenuous,
precarious,
broken
energy
that
is
also
contagious
and
sort
of
buzzy.
I
didn't
maintain
the
accent
in
between
takes,
nor
did
I
do
it
over
the
weekend.
I
feel
fairly
absurd
unless
the
time
is
now,
you
know
what
I
mean?
So
it
was
a
slightly
different
approach,
but
I
still
felt
like
I
needed
it
to
be
in
my
body
to
the
extent
that
I
didn't
have
to
fixate
on
it."
Furthermore,
talking
about
their
prep
session
affecting
their
mental
health,
Lady
Gaga
said,
"I
really
apologise
that
I'm
so
quiet,
but
I'm
so
fascinated
listening
to
you...I'm
always
thinking
when
the
movie's
over
and
I'm
a
bag
of
bones
going
home,
that
there
has
to
be
this
other
way
for
me
to
tell
stories
without
abandoning
myself.
I
still
feel
like
I
have
a
lot
to
learn
in
that
way.
When
I
studied
my
character
during
COVID,
I
read
and
read
and
read
so
much
and
annihilated
my
script
in
a
way
where
I
was
starving
to
understand
this
woman.
I
don't
create
a
safe
environment
when
I
work.
I
chain-smoke
cigarettes,
and
I'm
writing
tons
of
notes,
and
I'm
working
on
all
sorts
of
sense
memory
and
personification.
My
therapist
always
tells
me
that
I
should
try
to
work
at
70%
because
I'm
hurting
myself.
Hearing
about
you
being
with
your
loved
ones
and
the
way
that
you're
able
to
balance
your
lives
is
a
really
important
message
for
a
lot
of
people."
Kristen
Stewart
called
the
entire
process
'emotionally
brutal'.
She
said,
"Emotional
brutality
is
a
really
good
way
of
putting
it...I
used
to
think:
"I
need
to
f**k
myself
up
so
badly,
or
else
it's
not
going
to
be
real."
Or:
"I
need
to
embed
every
personal
memory
and
tie
it
to
something
in
this
character."
But
then
I
found
that
when
I
actually
kind
of
chilled
and
stepped
back,
I
was
more
present,
honest
and
therefore
more
vulnerable.
It
was
like
this
reverse
discovery.
If
I
don't
try
and
smash
my
face
through
a
plate
glass
window,
I
might
actually
be
able
to
think
of
the
scene.
Also,
it's
just
not
sustainable.
You
smoke
that
many
cigarettes,
you're
going
down.
Can't
do
that
for
so
long."
Talking
about
their
respective
movies,
House
of
Gucci
also
starred
Adam
Driver,
Jared
Leto,
Al
Pacino
and
others
in
pivotal
roles.
On
the
other
hand,
Spencer
has
been
helmed
by
Pablo
Larrain.
It
also
stars
Jack
Farthing,
Sally
Hawkins
and
Amy
Manson
in
important
roles.
