The Crown Season 5 is coming to Netflix, finally, and the official trailer sees Imelda Staunton taking the rei(g)ns from Olivia Colman as Queen Elizabeth II.
In this season of Peter Morgan's royal drama, as the Queen nears 40 years on the throne and the 1980s turns into the 1990s, the Royal Family navigate Prince Charles' (Dominic West's) divorce with Diana (Elizabeth Debicki) which throws the monarchy into a constitutional crisis. Diana decides to publish her own book that shows the public just who the House of Windsor really is, and Mohamed Al Fayed (Salim Daw) shows up with his son Dodi (Khalid Abdalla).
And folks, Debicki is wearing THE REVENGE DRESS in the trailer!!! Skip to 1:10, it's really there.
But of course, all this is happening while the world turns, and the series takes place through the fall of the Soviet Union and the transfer of sovereignty in Hong Kong.
The series sees several changes in the cast, with Jonathan Pryce as Prince Philip, Lesley Manville as Princess Margaret, Claudia Harrison as Princess Anne, Olivia Williams as Camilla Parker Bowles, and Jonny Lee Miller joining the cast as Prime Minister John Major.
The Crown Season 5 hits Netflix on Nov. 9.
