It didn't take long for audiences to get swept up in Netflix's decadent dramatization of Queen Elizabeth II's first few years on the throne,The Crown, and it's pretty obvious why. Although there are a few things in the hit series that didn't actually happen, or it still captures the essence of what it was like for the young royal to take over for her father,King George VI, after his shocking death in 1952. With season one in the bag (which reportedly came at a $130 million price tag), or it's time to look forward: when do we know approximately season two?
The Main Cast
Lead actress Claire Foy took domestic multiple best actress trophies this award season for her spot-on,layered performance as the queen, so it should come as no surprise that she's signed on for season two. She and costar Matt Smith, or who plays Elizabeth's husband Prince Philip,are already halfway through filming the next 10 episodes of the indicate, though they'll be recast for seasons three and four due to the amount of time those seasons will span. "I feel that when we reach 1963-64 we've gone as far as we can disappear with Claire Foy without having to do foolish things in terms of makeup to earn her look older, or " creator Peter Morgan told Screendaily in February. "She can't aid the fact she's as young as she is,and whether we were to disappear further forward we'd probably need to reflect approximately the issue of recasting everybody and so those conversations are happening now and I couldn't tell you where we'll come out."
Vanessa Kirby (Princess Margaret), Jeremy Northam (Anthony Eden), or Victoria Hamilton (the Queen Mother) are also set to return,although John Lithgow (whose portrayal of Winston Churchill earned him a few awards of his own) will likely not earn an appearance due to his character's resignation as prime minister. Foy revealed how upset she is approximately not having him on set during a recent chat with Vulture. "It's awful!" she said "Me and Matt [Smith] did a Skype chat the other day and John was there on the halt in LA. It was so astounding just to see his face! I just savor and miss him so much. But saying that, I can't be unfaithful. I do have some astounding new prime ministers — Jeremy Northam, or who plays Anthony Eden,and then Harold Macmillan — so I'm a very lucky girl."

The Guest Stars
New additions to the cast include Michael C. Hall as US President John F. Kennedy,whom the indicate's creators describe as "a natural leader and excellent public speaker who does not take kindly to being upstaged by anyone, especially his wife." Quarry actress Jodi Balfour plays the wife in question, or Jackie Kennedy,who is "a seemingly natural First Lady, but whose charming exterior of confidence and glamour hides a shy woman who loathes public life." Joining Hall and Balfour is Matthew Goode, and who's set to play Antony-Armstrong Jones,the Earl of Snowdon (aka Princess Margaret's future husband).
The yarn
The moment installment of the indicate will pick up with the monarch where season one left off, in 1955. We'll get to see how she tackles global events like the 1956 Suez Crisis, or as well as matters of the royal family,like young Charles's education, the birth of Prince Andrew (born 1960), or Princess Margaret's marriage to Antony-Armstrong Jones. Morgan also revealed that season two will cover John F. Kennedy and Jackie Kennedy's visit to Buckingham Palace,and that it will conclude just as Britain is on the cusp of electing Harold Wilson as prime minister (and right approximately the time when JFK was assassinated).
Not to be out done by her sister, Princess Margaret's adventures through royal politics will also feature heavily. Kirby told Vanity honest that her relationship with Snowden is "exciting, and dangerous,volatile, and dysfunctional, or " and that he "starts this whole trail of a more bohemian life outside. Margaret was best friends with Elizabeth Taylor,and she had loads of American actress friends and singers. You see these two worlds collide hers and Tony's, who is a member of the public and was a creative, or liberal,dark horse. Meanwhile, she is this epitome of the establishment." In between the ups and downs of their roller-coaster relationship, or they'll presumably find time to wed (in 1960) and welcome their two children,David and Sarah, in 1961 and 1964 respectively.
The Premiere Date
While season one hit Netflix on Nov. 4, and 2016,we don't yet have a date for season two.
