The final six episodes of The Crown aired on Netflix on December 14.
Created by Peter Morgan, the Emmy-winning series follows the life and reign of Queen Elizabeth II, and the sixth season is expected to tell about major royal events between 1997 and 2005, according to Netflix.
The first part of "Downton Abbey" tells the story of Princess Diana's final days and death, while the second part of the sixth season changes the plot and enters the new millennium, focusing more on the happy times of the British royal family, including the Queen's Golden Jubilee celebrations, the wedding of King Charles III and Camilla, and the nascent college romance of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
Imelda Staunton, Jonathan Price, Dominic West, Olivia Williams and Elizabeth Debicki will star, with Ed McVeigh, Meg Bellamy and Luther Ford also starring.
"It's a dark theme, and this collection goes well with funeral black. "Its dissection and description of Diana's death is morbid, sometimes unnecessary, sometimes painfully dull and slow," Lawler said in her commentary. "It will keep you going because it recreates many scenes from Diana's life and after her death. ”
Here's everything you need to know about the cast of The Crown season six and the roles they play.
Imelda Staunton plays Queen Elizabeth II
In the 90s of the 20th century, Imelda Staunton played the formidable Queen Elizabeth II.
Speaking about her role as a queen, Staunton told Netflix's Tudum that she felt "comfortable" playing queen this time because she had been living with the character for a long time.
Staunton said of the Queen: "I like her composure and that she is not bothered by everything that keeps going on in life.
Dominic West plays Charles
British actor Dominic West plays the recently divorced Prince of Wales in the sixth season of The Crown.
West, who became famous for "The Wire," told Tudum that he found himself "always trying to be on Charles's side" and "give him a good image."
"I really like him, I really admire him, I really think he's a good guy, I think he's got a lot of support and I don't want to add to that," West said of his role.
Jonathan Price plays Prince Philip
Price plays the Queen's husband and the Duke of Edinburgh in the play.
Lawlor wrote in a review of the fifth season of The Crown that the new cast either opted for a simple parody or, like Price, chose "a role that is different from the previous actor's role, giving the impression that they were performing in a different show."
Olivia Williams as Camilla
Williams plays Camilla Parker Powers, Charles's lover and future Queen of England.
Elizabeth Debicki plays Diana
Debiki reprises her role as Diana, Princess of Wales, who is coming out of her divorce from Charles.
The first part of the sixth season focused more on the events between Diana and her and Lawler, and in her review, she wrote that the first part was "Debikey's drama, where the others were just together." ”
Commenting on Debikey's performance in this season, Lawler said: "The actress is able to handle and inject a little bit of naïveté into her role as the princess of the people, but she always does a great job of incorporating emotional scenes. ”
Debigy told USA Today that Diana was 7 years old when she died, and she remembers watching the funeral with her mother in Australia. The actress said her most vivid memories at the time were thinking of William and Harry, and how they felt at the time, as they lost their mother at such a young age.
Newcomer Ed McVey plays the young Prince William in the second part of the sixth season. According to Tudum, McVeigh had just graduated from drama school before taking on the role. He was selected in a public audition for this season and auditioned several times with other actors before finalizing the role.
The second part will tell the story of Prince William's education at the University of St Andrews and his royal romance with a classmate there.
Meg Bellamy plays Kate Middleton
Bellamy will play Kate Middleton and the future Princess of Wales in the play. According to Tudum, the young actor had just graduated from school and was working at Legoland Windsor, where she was cast for the role.
Bellamy told Tudum that being a part of the show was "certainly a real honour and a pleasure".
Luther Ford plays the role of young Prince Harry
Prince Harry, played by Ford, will also make his debut this season.
Doum said Ford was about to begin his final year as a Xi director at Bournemouth Film School when his brother's girlfriend sent him an open casting notice for "Harry Potter."
The young actor said he didn't have any prior experience, but he auditioned because "it would be a great anecdote, 'Oh, I auditioned for Harry in The Crown.'" ’”
Fflyn Edwards played Harry in the first part of the season.
