The critically-acclaimed Netflix series “The Crown” has been a favorite among history and reality TV fans since its debut in November 2016. With its fictionalized yet historically-referenced depiction of the royal family, including lavish costumes, the show has captivated millions of viewers globally, even including members of the actual royal family.
Exciting news recently emerged from both The Sun and The Telegraph, stating that all three actresses who portrayed the late Queen Elizabeth—Claire Foy, Olivia Colman, and Imelda Staunton—will return for the final season of the series. Such a feat was not easy to accomplish, as both Foy and Colman have since moved onto bigger projects, yet fans rejoice in the knowledge that the trifecta of actresses will close out the series in a special tribute to the Queen.
Foy originally played Queen Elizabeth in seasons one and two, depicting the young monarch as she struggled to establish her autonomy in mourning the death of King George VI. Colman then took over for seasons three and four, portraying the Queen in mid-life. Staunton will also reprise her role for season six, portraying the Queen in her later years.
The show also delves into the personal lives of Queen Elizabeth’s children, particularly Prince Charles and his ill-fated marriage to Princess Diana. Though production on the show was halted following the announcement of the Queen’s death, the show is set to premiere season six in the fall of 2023.
For many viewers, Foy’s portrayal of Queen Elizabeth was the highlight of the series, earning her several awards including a Golden Globe and two Emmys, and her cameo appearance in season five was widely celebrated. The opportunity to see her reprise the role for the final season is a dream come true for fans like myself.
As a lover of “The Crown,” the news of the returning actresses has me ecstatic for what is sure to be a memorable and emotional journey, paying tribute to one of history’s most iconic figures while providing a stunning combination of historical accuracy and captivating drama.
