The crown saga is coming to an end. The popular UK show loosely based on the life of the royal family’s sixth and final season will be released in two parts this fall, according to a Netflix announcement on Monday. This is the first time the series has been divided into two parts; Part 1 will debut on Thursday, November 16, and Part 2 will follow on Thursday, December 14.

Decoding the teaser

Netflix also posted a brand-new clip that teased upcoming content. The voices of Claire Foy, Olivia Colman, and Imelda Staunton played over the sight of an opulent living room as a clock chimed menacingly. The cast of The Crown has changed every two seasons to represent the characters’ aging through the years, and the three actresses have alternated as Queen Elizabeth. The teaser showed the actors strolling around a lavish royal house to depict the passage of time.

Catch the tease!

More on the season

The sixth season, which will cover events from 1997 to 2005, was also disclosed by Netflix. In the first installment, Jonathan Pryce will reprise his part as Prince Philip, Lesley Manville will portray Princess Margaret, Elizabeth Debicki will reprise her role as Princess Diana, Dominic West will play the now-King Charles, and Staunton will play Queen Elizabeth. Mohamed Al Fayed Dodi Fayed, Salim Daw, and Khalid Abdalla are back as well. Rufus Kampa and Fflyn Edwards will debut as young Prince William and Prince Harry in Part 1.

Here’s what’s new

The first four episodes of Part 1 will focus on Diana and Dodi’s friendship before their tragic vehicle accident in Paris in 1997. The Crown will not include the point of impact. The part will be available in queues four weeks from now and will be told over six episodes.

The Crown will depict a young William returning to Eton after his mother’s passing as the monarchy maneuvers through a tumultuous period in the public eye. In the meantime, an old queen considers the monarchy’s future in light of Charles and Camilla’s marriage and the future of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
In Part 2 of season 6, The Crown’s last casting change will also catch viewers’ attention on television. Prince William will be portrayed by Ed McVey, Prince Harry by Luther Ford, and Kate will be highlighted by Meg Bellamy.
