The crown is there a 2nd series?

[HappydaysArehere]

We have watched The Crown's first series. I thought there was second series but cannot find it on Netflix. Does anyone know anything about it? Would really like to know.

The good news: yes apparently there will be a 2nd season
The bad news: it's not due out on Netflix until November

I think there are many more planned too and this may be the final season with the current leads?

I've read somewhere (possibly Wiki?!) that they are planning to bring it up to the current day changing actors every two series. I really enjoyed the first series :-)

Hope they're not planning on changing Clare Foy. She's amazing in her role.

Yes she was fab. I think I read that they will be bringing in older actors for each role as they move through the times iyswim

Clare Foy is back for series 2 but I believe they'll be changing the actors for series 3

Yes perhaps if they stuck loads of makeup on her to make her look her forty years older it might detract from her acting!

Thank you everyone. Now I know. I really enjoyed series one but wished they had found someone a little more like Prince Philip was at that age. The actor playing him did him no favours. The queen was besotted by Philip and he was really good looking although he was the devil he is portrayed as in the series. It took him a good time to,settle down. Also, the same goes for Peter Townsend. He was really attractive and appeared younger than the actor. It was difficult to
believe, looking at the actor, that the gorgeous Margaret had fallen for him.
