In just a few short weeks, The Crown will make a triumphant comeback to television, and we couldn’t be more excited. A new cast will replace Olivia Colman, Josh O’Connor, and Emma Corrin, among others. In terms of what we can anticipate from season five, we’ll see the dissolution of Princess Diana’s marriage to the future King Charles III, as well as their relationship and final untimely passing.
Fans are speculating about how The Crown would handle the terrible death of Princess Diana. One viewer wrote, “I truly like The Crown but they need to tread lightly on Princess Diana’s death,” and another said that even the cast of the show had voiced concerns that “a line is being crossed.”
Fans should not fear, according to Elizabeth Debicki, who recently assumed the role, as the show handled the sensitive incident with “compassion.”
She told Entertainment Tonight that both the actors and the show’s creator, Peter Morgan, “try their absolute best to actually address things with such sensitivity, reality, and depth.” “From a viewer’s standpoint, something possibly that you would never ever see, the amount of research and care and conversations and dialogue that happen over is just huge.”
Debicki continued, saying she realised she had “stepped into this environment where this was treated seriously [in] a profound caring way” from their very first encounter, adding, “So that’s my experience of the play.”
In a car accident in Paris in 1997 that also killed Fayed and the driver, Princess Diana passed tragically. The Princess of Wales’s passing shocked the entire globe, and many royal admirers are still in mourning.
While the precise moment of the late Princess Diana’s fatal car crash will not be seen on screen, the circumstances leading up to it will be portrayed, Netflix has announced ahead of the return of The Crown.
Dominic West, who plays the then-Prince Charles, adds in response to the difficult sequences that follow the royal’s passing: “It’s a hell of a season, because it deals with Diana’s death and horrible scenes, like having to break the news to your sons.”
