Fewer and fewer days separate us from the fifth season of The Crown 5 on Netflix. Fans are stomping to experience all the lights and shadows of the most famous royal family of all time.
At the top of the charts after the death of Queen Elizabeth II, the television series The Crown has confirmed itself as one of the most beloved and acclaimed fictions. Released on November 9, the fifth season (penultimate season) is highly anticipated by fans. The story, which in the 4 seasons preceding the rise of Elizabeth II and her reign of steel, recounts the divorce of the current English king Charles III and the last love of Lady Diana with a story very close to the present. The poster for the fifth season, characterized by cool colors and well-defined characters, speaks for itself. Carlo and Diana are blurred on the sides and convey all the distance that, most likely, has always existed in their romantic relationship. Elisabetta, cold and imperturbable, in the center, captures the viewer with a deep gaze, conveying a state of dark restlessness.

But how will the Court react to the vision of the series which, above all, focuses on all the shadows of the royal family? The heir to the throne William had already shown his disappointment at the release of the fourth season and a new storm is about to arrive at Buckingham Palace. There are many arguments that could worry the British dynasty, between nerves still exposed and hot topics. Sources close to Buckingham Palace say that “this is a series, not a documentary”, but that any more tendentious reconstructions will be taken seriously. The production of the Netflix series said filming had already wrapped when the Queen died and had not changed any episodes.
Elizabeth’s Hardest Years
The 90s represent a sad and dark parenthesis for the British dynasty and for Elizabeth II. The narrative intrigue of the fifth season accustoms us, from the start, to fake and forced smiles that try to hide the great malaise and malaise at Court. The entire fifth season is approaching nowadays. We are finally in the 90s and the monarchy is at the center of many earthquakes, including scandals, gossip and tragedies. In particular, the bereaved queen fought with all her might to keep the kingdom away from gossip, although 1992 was her annus horribilis. A fire that broke out at beloved Windsor Castle and the divorces of three of his children were the main features of his 1990s malaise.
The casting
New cast for the fifth season, completely renewed. Elizabeth II will be interpreted by the immense Imelda Stauton. We have already seen the face of the beautiful Elizabeth Debicki in The Great Gatsby or in Tenet. We will fall in love with Elizabeth in the role of Lady D. The role of Carlo will be played by the charming Dominic West. Lesley Manville will be the new Princess Margaret.
