One last featurette for the next season of The Crown, Netflix’s prestigious royal drama, has been released by the streamer ahead of season four’s debut this weekend. The featurette is titled ‘Creating A New Chapter’, and the show’s cast and crew give us a glimpse of the rivalries and relationships that lie ahead.
Season 4 picks up in the late 1970s. Queen Elizabeth (Olivia Colman) and her family find themselves preoccupied with safeguarding the line of succession by securing an appropriate bride for Prince Charles (Josh O’Connor), who is still unmarried at 30. As the nation begins to feel the impact of divisive policies introduced by Britain’s first female Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, tensions arise between her and the Queen which only grow worse as Thatcher leads the country into the Falklands War, generating conflict within the Commonwealth. While Charles’ romance with a young Lady Diana Spencer provides a much-needed fairytale to unite the British people, behind closed doors, the Royal family is becoming increasingly divided.
It will be released this Sunday, 15th November. Here’s the new featurette.
