The 4th season of The Crown, Netflix’s drama about the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, dropped in 2020. It was set during the 1980s and introduced us to Lady Diana Spencer and Margaret Thatcher, two individuals who had a big impact on the decade.
How Long Will Each Season of the Crown Be?
The show should have six 10-episode seasons, however, when The Crown maker Peter Morgan was writing the 5th season, he concluded it was “the perfect time and place to stop.”
Then, at that point, in July 2020, it became clear that Morgan had changed his mind, and Netflix announced via social media that a 6th season would be made all things considered.
Assuming you’ve already seen Season 4, you may be wondering when Season 5 will release and what the royal drama will be like after another full cast change.
When will season 5 of The Crown be on Netflix?
Shooting began in June 2021, and Imelda Staunton announced at the Netflix TUDUM event that the new series would begin airing in November 2022.
