added: Thu, Oct 20th '22

It's a new decade. So hence, a new cast. And a new Queen.

Check out acclaimed English actress Imelda Staunton (from the Harry Potter films, Vera Drake, and Downton Abbey) as she takes on the role of Queen Elizabeth II in Season 5 of the award-winning Netflix series "The Crown," for which an official trailer has been released.

Executive produced and written by "The Queen" scribe Peter Morgan, the series has once again taken a leap of time and entered into the decade of the 1990s, boasting a new cast of actors portraying the royals.

Elizabeth Debicki (from Tenet and The Night Manager) is now cast as Diana, the Princess of Wales. Meanwhile, The Wire's Dominic West is playing Prince Charles. Jonathan Pryce (Game of Thrones, The Two Popes) is Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, and Lesley Manville (Phantom Thread) is Princess Margaret.

Trainspotting's Jonny Lee Miller also co-stars in the series as British Prime Minister John Major, while Olivia Williams (Rushmore, The Nevers) takes on the role of Camilla Parker Bowles, Prince Charles' long-time lover.

"The Crown: Season 5" is set to premiere on November 9th, only on Netflix. Watch the trailer, above.
