The concluding six episodes will chronicle the death of Princess Margaret and Prince William’s relationship with Kate Middleton.
The trailer for the final episodes of The Crown has been unveiled.
The first four episodes of the Netflix drama’s sixth season launched on 16th November, with six more debuting on 14th December set to bring the series to a close.
The final chapter will see Princess Margaret (Lesley Manville) suffer a stroke that prompts a reevaluation of her lifestyle. Her deteriorating health leads her to reminisce about a covert night out with her sister on VE Day in 1945, finding solace in these memories during her last days.
In the wake of her sister’s and mother’s passing, and with her Golden Jubilee on the horizon, Queen Elizabeth II (Imelda Saunton) begins to reflect deeply on her reign and legacy. As she approaches her 90s, the Queen confronts the critical question of what is best for the future of the monarchy.
The concluding episodes will also focus on Prince William (now played by Ed McVey) and his emotional turmoil following his mother’s death, as he returns to Eton and grapples with heightened attention from sympathetic young female admirers.
As Prince William progresses to St Andrew’s University, he struggles with the demands of his public role and begins to develops feelings for another student, Kate Middleton (Meg Bellamy)
The final season of The Crown also stars Jonathan Pryce as Prince Philip, Dominic West as Prince Charles, Elizabeth Debicki as Princess Diana, Claudia Harrison as Princess Anne, Olivia Williams as Camilla Parker Bowles, Bertie Carvel as Tony Blair, Salim Daw as Mohamed Al Fayed, and Khalid Abdalla as Dodi Fayed.
