NETFLIX

Elizabeth Debicki To Play Princess Diana In Final 2 Seasons Of ‘The Crown’

Every two years, the cast of ‘The Crown’ changes to make sure we feel the passage of time while watching the WIndsors and their lives recreated without limits of expense on NETFLIX. LIttle by little, we get closer to modern day. At first it didn’t seem like we see the story of Princess Diana, but the producers just announced the show won’t end with season 5, but will instead continue on through a 6th season.

From Huffington Post:

Debicki will join the cast for the fifth and sixth seasons, which now includes Imelda Staunton as Queen Elizabeth, Lesley Manville as Princess Margaret and the recently announced Jonathan Pryce as the Duke of Edinburgh.

As the final seasons are reportedly set to end in the early 2000s, the series will seemingly cover Diana’s divorce from Prince Charles and her tragic death in 1997.

 

Elizabeth Debicki has also appeared in “The Man From U.N.C.L.E.,” “Everest,” “The Night Manager,” “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” and the upcoming “Tenet” from director Christopher Nolan.

Earlier this year it was announced that Kristen Stewart will play Princess Diana in the upcoming film “Spencer,” which will reportedly focus on her tumultuous marriage to Prince Charles.
