Prince Harry has reportedly approached a number of the late Princess's friends and relatives about taking part in a potential film, including her brother Earl Spencer.

A source reportedly said: "The Duke has discussed a number of possible projects to mark the 30th anniversary of his mother, Diana, Princess of Wales's passing.

"Nothing has been finalised or confirmed, and he is still considering the most meaningful way to honour her legacy during this important anniversary year."

The reports come amid his uncle Earl Spencer's release of the memoir Swan Song: Diana, My Sister, which has made a number of allegations against the royal family.

According to Earl Spencer, Harry is “completely fine” with the new memoir chronicling the life of his mother.

Asked about telling Harry and the Prince of Wales about the book, the earl told People magazine: “I can say that Harry is completely fine about it.

“He said, I hope there’s nothing embarrassing about him in it. I said, ‘There isn’t’.

“I think they were actually worried where I was going up to with the book.

“It pretty much ends in 1997 with Diana’s death, and there’s a tiny postscript by the grave.

“So I think there was this, ‘Gosh, what’s he written about?’ And I think it’s natural that people so in the public eye are concerned how they will come across in the book.

“But I could reassure both of them that they’re of course in the book, but really as examples of two little boys who had the most exceptional mother, I’m not in any way compromising their privacy at all.”

Diana, Princess of Wales – the ex-wife of the now-King – died on August 31, 1997, in a car crash in Paris at the age of 36.

Her partner, Dodi Fayed, and their chauffeur Henri Paul also died in the crash.

Her death led to widespread public mourning, and her funeral was watched by more than two billion people worldwide.
