Even though the cast of The Crown Season 4 managed to win much praise for their portrayal as the key members of the royal family, there will be a few changes made for the fifth season. While there’s no doubt in anyone’s minds that Olivia Colman has been doing a superb and phenomenal job as the current Queen Elizabeth, actress Imelda Staunton will be taking over the role in Season 5 as the show takes a turn into the 21st century.

Not only will we be seeing a face swap for Queen Elizabeth, Prince Philip, Princess Margaret and the other key members of the royal family, but there will also be a new Princess Diana as week. British actress Elizabeth Debicki will be taking over the role and if she looks familiar that’s because she also starred in The Night Manager and The Great Gatsby.

What’s more, British actor Dominic West will reportedly play Princess Diana’s husband Prince Charles in what will definitely be a very turbulent period in their marriage and right before Diana decided to pull the plug on their marriage. This news comes right after Dominic himself was caught in a little scandal. Even though he is married to Catherine FitzGerald, he was spotted getting up close and personal with his The Pursuit of Love co-star Lily James in Rome.

And while there isn’t a synopsis for Season 5 just yet, insiders say that there’s a good chance the main storyline will focus on Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s divorce and all of the events that happened before her untimely death. The inclusion of Prime Minister Tony Blair and the events of the mid to late 1990’s will also be highlighted in the series.
