'The Crown' Gets Surprise Sixth Season After Show Previously Only Planned for Five Seasons

Amazing news for The Crown fans! The show was originally supposed to contain five seasons, but the show’s creator has reconsidered and will now end after season six.

“As we started to discuss the storylines for Series 5, it soon became clear that in order to do justice to the richness and complexity of the story we should go back to the original plan and do six seasons. To be clear, Series 6 will not bring us any closer to present-day – it will simply enable us to cover the same period in greater detail,” creator Peter Morgan told Deadline.

The show currently stars Olivia Colman as Queen Elizabeth, Helena Bonham Carter as Princess Margaret, Tobias Menzies as The Duke of Edinburgh, Josh O’Connor as Prince Charles, Erin Doherty as Princess Anne, and more.

We recently found out that this controversial royal story line will NOT be a part of the show.

Season three premiered last year, and season four is expected in the coming months on Netflix.
