Netflix in a statement said that in the final six episodes, Queen Elizabeth II (Imelda Staunton) reflect on her reign and look ahead to a time when her successors will take the throne. The two-part sixth, and final, season of “The Crown” explores Princess Diana’s final days before she perishes in a car accident. As a historical drama, the Emmy-winning drama series created by Peter Morgan seeks to tell the story of Queen Elizabeth’s reign against the backdrop of various royal dramas. For Elizabeth Debicki, portraying Princess Diana on “The Crown” for two seasons created a sense of responsibility to be as authentic as possible for the many people who revere the British royal family. Debicki believes it’s a common experience for «The Crown» actors to struggle to “let go” and stop “observing” themselves while filming the show.
