The Crown Plot and Cast
The Crown Season 6 is expected to portray royal events from the mid-to-late 1990s to the early 2000s. Each previous instalment of The Crown has covered roughly a decade. Netflix hasn’t released any official information regarding the plot for Season 6, but we can speculate based on key events in Queen Elizabeth II’s reign during that period.
We would expect The Crown Season 6 to explore events that took place after the tragic death of Diana, Princess of Wales in 1997. There could, however, be some changes among the younger members of the cast between Seasons 5 and 6.
The royal princes, for instance, will be teenagers in Season 5 but adults by the time Season 6 ends. And one now familiar face won’t make her first appearance until The Crown is almost over.
The Crown Season 6 Release Date
Netflix hasn’t confirmed the release date for The Crown season 6, but judging by the release dates of previous seasons, we predict it will land on Netflix in November 2023.
The good news is that Season 6 is definitely in the works, and filming is set to start in August 2022. Further details are expected to be revealed in the next few months.
