The Crown Share First Look At Dominic West and Elizabeth Debicki As Charles And Diana

Netflix has released the first look at Elizabeth Debicki and Dominic West as Princess Diana and Prince Charles in season 5 of The Crown. 

The penultimate season of the hugely popular show began filming last month, with the streaming service sharing a sneak peek at Imelda Staunton who is taking over from Olivia Colman in the role of Queen Elizabeth II.

Now, we’ve also been given a glimpse at Dominic West and Elizabeth Debicki in their characters, taking over the roles of Diana and Charles from Emma Corrin and Josh O’Connor.

Season five of the series is expected to land sometime in 2022, although the exact date has not yet been given. While it was originally set to be the final season, Netflix released a statement earlier this year to confirm that there will be one more after this.

“As we started to discuss the storylines for Series five, it soon became clear that in order to do justice to the richness and complexity of the story we should go back to the original plan and do six seasons”
