Netflix's The Crown to end after season five with Imelda Staunton as Queen

Netflix revealed last week that a total of 73 million households worldwide have watched the show since it began in 2016.Morgan said:"I'm absolutely thrilled to confirm Imelda Staunton as Her Majesty The Queen for the fifth and final season, taking The Crown into the 21st Century.'Special and unique'

In early January, Colman won the best actress award at the Golden Globes for her leading part in series three, which explored storylines including the romance between Prince Charles and Camilla. Staunton, who starred in Vera Drake and the Harry Potter film series and previously portrayed the Queen in the 2003 TV series Cambridge Spies, said she was already a big fan.

"As an actor it was a joy to see how both Claire Foy and Olivia Colman brought something special and unique to Peter Morgan's scripts," she said. The fourth series is currently in production and will see the introduction of Diana, Princess of Wales, played by Emma Corrin, and Margaret Thatcher, played by Gillian Anderson.

Just as I tweet about ‘The Crown’ smh

I’ve enjoyed watching ‘The Crown’, it’s been a good series so far.

Nooooo! They need to keep going every few years or so......there’s still so much to tell! In 10 years we can look back on last years/this years debarcles 😉

BBCWorld New job Imelda.. ? try Linkedin

BBCWorld 3rd season was so boring

BBCWorld So, are you telling me Meghan is not going to play herself? Wtf dude..

Hugh Laurie would make a great Prince Philip opposite Imelda!

If only life imitated art.

BBCWorld There's five 😳😳😳😳😳😒😒

This is sexist ! At least give LozzaFox an audition ( gender fluidity and all that )

BBCWorld Can the monarchy also end at the same time?

oh no :(

BBCWorld I’m so excited for this! ❤️

So they won't show Prince Andrew raping children?

BBCWorld s3 was poor.

Series 3 was very dull. I won’t be watching again. thecrownnetflix It should have ended on Season 2.

BBCWorld What was season four about again?

its like Dr Who

Not suprised the RF is a disgrace

She does not impress me as an actor

Ohhh - Who will play Prince Andrew? Someone who doesn’t sweat and can’t remember dancing - with anyone. Someone who is thick-posh and slightly repellent. A child-like actor who will struggle with grown ups playing the rest of the Royal family. Step forward...

BBCWorld 💔

BBCWorld Love me some Imelda.

Great casting but I‘m glad it’s ending. It’s gotten boring.

Oh.

Probably for the best, it was in danger of doing a GoT and getting ahead of the books.

BBCWorld Fucking Dolores Umbridge becomes the Queen?!?! No.

BBCWorld The 1st one was the best

BBCWorld Never watched, but I heard it is good

steve_hofmeyr 😥

Perfect casting 👌

No!!! There is so much to add! PeterMorgan TheCrownNetflix

BBCWorld too bad she is not the real Queen, the current one is running her monarchy into the ground and needs to abdicate STAT!

all well and good, but who's playing the dirty paedo?

Is this because she'll look to much like Dolores Umbridge?

Great show, shame there’ll only be one more season

Only on season 2. Havent reached the transition to new actors yet.

Imelda Staunton is a triumph in everything she does. Can’t wait.

Whens the episode when she dies?

Good

Fuck the crown
