Netflix has set a premiere date for Season 4 of The crown. The royal drama, starring Olivia Colman, will hit streaming service on November 15.
Netflix announced the news with a 30-second clip from the new season, in which Colman’s Queen Elizabeth II says, “Something as important as the monarchy just can’t be allowed to fail.”
It then cuts to images of Gillian Anderson as Margaret Thatcher and Princess Diana, played by Emma Corrin. The latter can be seen in her wedding venue on the day she married Prince Charles (Josh O’Connor).
Produced by Left Bank Pictures and made by Peter Morgan, Season 4 is packed in March and it will be the last turn of the current cast as the British Royal Family. The show will capture the arrival of Margaret Thatcher as Prime Minister and the often troubled relationship between Prince Charles and Diana.
Fans might want to enjoy season 4, as it will be the last run of two episodes for two years. The show takes a film ban until next year, which means Season 5 will not premiere until 2022. Imelda Staunton will succeed Colman on the throne.
