Emmy winner Olivia Colman, who portrayed Queen Elizabeth in the series finale episode of Netflix’s monarchy drama, is not eligible to submit in the guest drama actress race by only a few seconds. However, her co-star Claire Foy, who also portrays Her Majesty in her younger years and appears in the same episode, is eligible and will be the sole guest submission for the series, angling for her second win in the category.
The “Sleep, Dearie Sleep,” written by Peter Morgan and directed by Stephen Daldry, clocks in at a robust 72 minutes, the longest of any episode across its six seasons.

“The Crown” is gearing up for its last hurrah at the SAG Awards, an organization that has bestowed a number of prizes onto the Netflix regal show over the years. It claimed the highly coveted TV drama ensemble prize twice (2019 and ’20), while individual winners through the years were Claire Foy (2016 and ’17), John Lithgow (2016) and Gillian Anderson (2020). Now the sixth and final season is hoping to prevail for a third time, which would tie it with “Downton Abbey” in this category at three total wins.
Season 6 faces off in the TV drama ensemble race against fellow nominees “The Gilded Age,” “The Last of Us,” “The Morning Show” and “Succession.” Elizabeth Debicki is “The Crown’s” only solo acting nominee this year, with her co-nominees in the TV drama actress category being Jennifer Aniston (“The Morning Show”), Bella Ramsey (“The Last of Us”), Keri Russell (“The Diplomat”) and Sarah Snook (“Succession”).

Doctor Who writer Peter Harness is back in the word of science fiction for Apple TV+ drama Constellation, starring Noomi Rapace. Here’s the trailer.
Screenwriter Peter Harness is perhaps best known as a regular writer on the revived series of Doctor Who, where he was responsible for Kill The Moon, one of the more divisive episodes among the fandom. Now, Harness is back in the world of science fiction for eight part drama Constellation, starring Noomi Rapace.
The synopsis reads as follows:
Constellation stars Noomi Rapace as Jo — an astronaut who returns to Earth after a disaster in space — only to discover that key pieces of her life seem to be missing. The space adventure is an exploration of the dark edges of human psychology, and one woman’s desperate quest to expose the truth about the hidden history of space travel and recover all that she has lost.

This year’s SAG Awards nominations for drama ensemble run the gamut in terms of total cast members nominated. You have “The Gilded Age” on one side with a jaw-dropping 34 people represented. And then you have “The Last of Us” on the other side with just two — hi, Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey! HBO’s zombie apocalypse series has now tied the Screen Actors Guild record with “Key and Peele,” which was the first TV show to nab an ensemble citation with just two stars: Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele.
The “Key and Peele” funny duo lost to “Orange Is the New Black” for comedy ensemble in 2016, which had a whopping 34 cast members nominated that year. Hmm, a two-person cast losing to a 34-person ensemble? Might SAG Awards history repeat itself? “The Last of Us” competes this year against “The Gilded Age” (34 cast members), “Succession” (18), “The Crown” (15) and “The Morning Show...

"The Crown doesn't ask existential questions of itself."
That's what Queen Elizabeth II's (Imelda Staunton) longtime advisor and private secretary Robert Fellowes (Andrew Havill) cautions when the Queen, confronted with yet another round of dismal polls, suggests her team "find out what seems to have gone wrong" and how she "could do better." For decades, the monarch has been reluctant to respond to negative feedback, preferring to keep her head down and wait for things to blow over, but with the ultra-popular Prime Minister Tony Blair (Bertie Carvel) being hailed as "King Tony," she can no longer afford to ignore criticism from the public. After all these years, she says, "I think, finally, I'm ready to hear it."...

The fifth episode of “The Crown’s” final season — and the first entry in the short-awaited Part 2 — is titled “Willsmania” — an awkward, silly name from which the gloomy series derives zero pleasure. How could it? After all, Prince William is still mourning the loss of his mother, Diana (Elizabeth Debicki), even as the English people shift their collective grief for the Princess of Wales into an outpouring of affection for her eldest son. “Affection” may be a bit misleading. Young women and girls scream at the sight of him, gathered behind police barricades, begging for an autograph, photo, or a passing touch. They’re fanatical, and the teen who would be king handles it as best he can, before escaping to the semi-private University of St. Andrews.
“The Crown,” however, rarely shakes its own case of Willsmania. The final season feels more like a set-up for “Will: The College Years...

Exclusive: Tony- and Olivier Award-winning actor Bertie Carvel, who portrays Tony Blair opposite Imelda Staunton’s Queen Elizabeth II in the final season of The Crown, remembers meeting the the real Queen Elizabeth at Buckingham Palace “and nearly head-butting” her “in my attempt to try not to be too obsequious, but to follow the right form.”
He still has a photo of him being introduced to the monarch at an event nine years ago. “I look like the Mr. Bean sketch where he bows and knocks her out. I’m so towering over the queen and I look like I really should have gone to the barber, and I was red-faced and hairy.”
Well, The Crown’s crack hair and makeup team led by designer Cate Hall has ensured that he’s respectfully coiffured to portray Blair.

Queen Elizabeth has been played by numerous actors over the years — three in Netflix’s The Crown alone. But tracking not far behind when it comes to onscreen depictions of major British figures is former prime minister Tony Blair. Among the names to have stepped into the shiny brogues of the divisive politician are the likes of Damien Lewis, Robert Lindsay, Toby Stephens, James Larkin, Ioan Gruffudd, Stephen Mangan, Harry Enfield and Pierce Brosnan (as a version of Blair in Roman Polanski’s The Ghost Writer). Michael Sheen has also famously played Blair three times.
Joining this illustrious list is Bertie Carvel, the star of stage and screen who joined The Crown for its final outings in seasons five and six. While he’s mostly a supporting bystander in season five, the sixth and final season of Netflix’s hit royal drama — which centered its first four episodes, now streaming,...

“The Crown” series finale premiere in London on Tuesday evening brought out the cast and creatives behind the hit Netflix show as well as a smattering of other familiar faces keen to catch a sneak peek of the last-ever episode.
Imelda Staunton, who plays the last iteration of Queen Elizabeth II in the fifth and sixth seasons of the series, led the red carpet. Despite the chaos around her — from reporters clamoring to ask questions to photographers shouting her name — the star told Variety her focus had always been on the character.
“I don’t look at maelstrom,” she said. “It doesn’t interest me. I just look at the script, look at the part, go to work.”
Newcomer Meg Bellamy, who joined the series as a college-age Kate Middleton for Season 6, was more emotional about getting the part, which also happened to be her first ever professional acting job.

The Crown is preparing for the end, and the trailer for the final six episodes brings to life what creator Peter Morgan has told audiences to expect from the hit Netflix drama: A love letter to the Queen.
The final episodes will draw to a close the genre-defining prestige royal saga that has been on screens since 2016, says the logline, and the footage centers around Queen Elizabeth, played by Imelda Staunton, as she battles sentimentality that the royal family is out of touch with the country, while reflecting on her reign as the longest-serving monarch in history and the life she put aside to become Queen.
In a poignant moment that speaks to the late Queen, The Crown‘s monarch says, “I will always be by your side.”

Peaky Blinders producer Caryn Mandabach Productions (Cmp) has optioned P.D. James’ Cordelia Gray novels and given itself room to expand the female detective’s universe.
Cmp is forging TV versions of An Unsuitable Job for a Woman and The Skull Beneath the Skin, which were penned in 1972 and 1982 respectively by the celebrated British scribe. As part of the deal with the James estate, the indie has agreed the potential to develop further Gray shows beyond the two existing novels.
Anne Boleyn writer Eve Hedderwick Turner has been brought on board to develop the novels as a returning drama series, set in the present day.
Gray’s character at the time was hailed for being a pioneering protagonist, as a new form of feminism was gaining momentum. The first novel in the bipartite series sees her hired to investigate the death of a young university student who is found hanged in mysterious circumstances.

Early on in The Crown Season 6, Part 1 premiere, Prime Minister Tony Blair (Bertie Carvel) reminds Queen Elizabeth II (Imelda Staunton) of what she knows to be true, but so desperately wishes weren't the case: "When Diana talks, the world listens."
Blair intends to convince the Queen that Princess Diana (Elizabeth Debicki), with her immense popularity and charming personality, could be an asset to the British government, despite her being officially "out" of the royal family following her divorce from Charles, Prince of Wales (the miscast Dominic West). Though the Pm isn't successful — "You yourself will know the difference of being in government, or out," the Queen warns — his remark reflects the overarching theme of the four-episode installment and creator Peter Morgan's attempt to give Diana a greater voice than he did in the drama's disappointing fifth season.

“The Crown” Season 6 has arrived, marking a sendoff for one of the most prestigious – and expensive – shows in Netflix history. The drama series has chronicled the reign of Queen Elizabeth II since her ascent in 1947, with the show rebooting its cast every two seasons to reflect the aging characters. Claire Foy’s Queen Elizabeth in Season 1 and 2 gave way to Olivia Colman’s in Season 3 and 4, which finally gave way to Imelda Staunton’s in these final two seasons.
“The Crown” Season 6 is dropping on Netflix in two halves and covers the tragic final weeks of Princess Diana’s life as it traverses the late 1990s into the early 2000s.

The Crown, which has won 21 Emmy Awards during its run on Netflix and is one of the streamer’s most enduringly popular original series, will soon step down from the throne. The show’s sixth season will be its last telling the story of Queen Elizabeth II and Britain’s royal family in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
The critically acclaimed series has chronicled some six decades of Elizabeth II’s reign, recasting its central characters every two seasons as the show moves through recent history as characters age.

Exclusive: The director of Netflix drama The Crown‘s episodes re-creating Princess Diana’s death in Paris 26 years ago has revealed the extraordinary efforts that went into ensuring it was handled with tact.
Speaking exclusively to Deadline, Christian Schwochow, who directed the three crucial Season 6 episodes that feature what are likely to be some of the most talked about moments on television this year, said that though shots were filmed of Diana, played by Elizabeth Debicki, in the Paris morgue, there was never any intention of them being included in the final edit.
The filmmaker directed the second episode from the final season of Peter Morgan’s British royal drama, titled “Two Photographs”; episode 3 (“Dis-Moi-Oui”), which features the crash; and episode 4, titled “Aftermath.”
Schwochow also confirmed reports from last October that the crash involving the Mercedes-Benz, driven by Henri Paul and carrying Diana, Dodi Fayed and security consultant Trevor Rees-Jones,...

We learned earlier this month via the first teaser that The Crown would be back for its sixth and final season in November – but that it would also be split into two chunks arriving roughly a month apart. That footage was primarily focused on Imelda Staunton's Queen Elizabeth II as she reflected on her royal legacy. But for the new, full trailer, the attention shifts to Elizabeth Debicki's Princess Diana, who is trying to life a post-Royal Family life in the glare of tabloid attention. See the new trailer:
Diana is being courted by the Fayeds in the South of France, giving the young Princes a taste of luxury yachts, video games and movie nights. Charles is sticking to tradition in Balmoral. The comparisons play out in the press, fuelled by a fervent paparazzi, and some of the Royal press team.

After 4 seasons of highly regarded prestige drama and, well, whatever season 5 was, "The Crown" is set to take its last bow with a two-part sixth season that begins in November. For years, fans of the show have anticipated seeing the way it will handle more modern events like the death of Princess Diana and the racist handling of Meghan Markle's time within the royal family. Based on new plot details about the upcoming season, it seems like the show's conclusion may only aim to tackle one of those events, but we'll know for sure when the show drops on Netflix next month.

“Some portion of our natural selves is always lost,” Colman takes over. “We have all made sacrifices. This is not a choice, it is a duty.”
Cut to Imelda Staunton’s eldest version of the late monarch.

In December 2022, the critically acclaimed, mega-successful stage musical based on Roald Dahl’s beloved children’s book Matilda came to cinemas translated into a punchy, inventive feature film. Written by playwright and screenwriter Dennis Kelly with songs and lyrics by comedian and writer Tim Minchin (Upright), the musical – like the book – is a terrific blend of poignancy and rebellious satire.
Famously adapted for a 1996 American feature film starring writer Mara Wilson in the title role, Matilda is the story of an extraordinary young girl born into a neglectful family who are unable to see, or appreciate her uniqueness. Matilda Wormwood isn’t just an academic genius, and when she goes up against the cruel, child-hating headmistress Miss Trunchbull, she uses her powers to right a generational wrong.
The new film retains the original musical’s anarchic heart, chiefly by retaining its director Matthew Warchus, who pulled the whole thing together...

“The Crown” is an Emmys force to reckon with. Amassing a whopping 21 Emmy wins across its first four seasons, the latest fifth season will hope to continue that impressive run.
Season five crept ever closer to modern-day history as it took place in the 1990s, in which several major events were depicted in the Netflix show. These included Queen Elizabeth‘s “annus horribilis,” the Queen’s state visit to Russia, the start of Tony Blair‘s (Bertie Carvel) reign as Prime Minister, the public divorce between Prince Charles (Dominic West) and Princess Diana (Elizabeth Debicki), and the latter’s “Panorama” interview.
This season featured plenty of knock-out performances, as per usual with “The Crown,” and none more so than Imelda Staunton‘s turn as Queen Elizabeth. Staunton took over the role from Claire Foy and Olivia Colman and made the role, the third rendition of the character, entirely her own.
