Season 3 of "The Crown" to be released on Netflix 11/17/2019

There's a new queen coming to The Crown.

11:00 AM - Oct 15, 2019

After playing the role of Queen Elizabeth II for the first two seasons of the show, award-winning actor Claire Foy will not return in the upcoming third season. Instead, Olivia Colman will star as an older queen comfortably ruling England and the Commonwealth in Seasons 3 and 4.

Netflix released the latest look of Colman as Elizabeth in a new poster with the tagline, "Times change. Duties endure," teasing the new era of the queen.

Colman appears in the poster alongside Crown newcomers Tobias Menzies, who will take over Matt Smith's role as a mature Prince Philip, and in the role of the adult version of Prince Charles, Josh O'Connor.

Excellent series!

Will there be a fourth series of Victoria? Everything we know so far
Victoria fans are still waiting to hear about the show's future


It sounds like a fourth series is on the cards – but don’t expect it to hit our screens any time soon.

According to Jenna Coleman, the period drama will take a “bit of a breather” before a potential series four as the team decides where to take the story next.

Speaking to Graham Norton on his BBC Radio 2 show, the actress said: “[Victoria] is definitely going to take a break, bit of a breather and then we’re working out [what to do next].”

She added: “There’s a lot of conversations: do you start at the Crimean War, or do you start later? I mean there’s too much story, unless I literally did commit until I am 63.”
