The Crown Season 5: It Will Be Renewed or Not?
Season 5 of The Crown, a royal drama on Netflix, is being filmed with a new cast, which includes Imelda Staunton, Dominic West, Lesley Manville, Jonathan Pryce, and Bertie Carvel.
The fourth Season of The Crown, Netflix’s drama about the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, came out in 2020. It was set in the 1980s and introduced us to Lady Diana Spencer and Margaret Thatcher, two people who enormously impacted the decade.
As Gillian Anderson’s Margaret Thatcher and Emma Corrin’s Diana captivated viewers, the new episodes were praised by critics and became some of the most talked-about TV shows of the year.
If you’ve already seen Season 4, you might wonder when Season 5 will come out and what the royal soap opera will be like after another complete cast change.

It will talk about when John Major was in charge, how hard it was for Diana and Prince Charles to end their marriage, and how sad it was when Diana died in 1997.
How Many Seasons of the Crown Will There Be?
The drama was supposed to have six 10-episode seasons, but when The Crown creator Peter Morgan wrote the fifth Season, he decided it was “the perfect time and place to stop.”
Then, in July 2020, it became clear that Morgan had changed his mind, and Netflix announced on social media that a sixth season would be made after all.
So, we now know that the fifth Season of The Crown will be the second-to-last one and will look more closely at the tumultuous early 1990s. It also gives new actors and actresses like Imelda Staunton and Lesley Manville twice as much screen time.

What Years Will Season 5 of the Crown Cover?
Season 5 of The Crown will pick up where Season 4 left off, which was in late 1990. This means that the show will likely take place in the 1990s, which was a hard time for the Queen and the rest of the Royal Family.
In series 5, we can expect to learn about the Queen’s “year from hell,” 1992, when three of her children’s marriages fell apart and the fire badly damaged Windsor Castle.
In November of that year, just four days after the Windsor fire, she gave a speech to mark the 40th anniversary of her taking the throne. In it, she said, “1992 is not a year on which I shall look back with undiluted pleasure. It has turned out to be an “annus horribilis.
