When is the new season of The Crown coming out? Release date and how to watch
The new season of The Crown is set to be released on Netflix very soon, but how long will fans have to wait to watch the royal drama unfold?
Fans of Netflix's royal drama are wondering, 'When is the new season of The Crown coming out?' Here is what we know so far about the upcoming fifth season of The Crown...
Season 5 of The Crown is set to be released this autumn and fans can't wait to see the royal drama unfold. Following the sudden passing of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, a new monarch has been appointed - and King Charles III is set to be the focal point of the upcoming season of the Netflix show.
This led to Buckingham Palace releasing a statement on The Crown ahead of the season focusing on Charles and Diana's divorce. The Palace reiterated that the show is a 'drama, not a documentary,' which led to speculation that the firm is concerned about how damaging this season will be for the monarch's public image.
Despite concerns from the royals, the season is set to be released very soon, here is what we know...

What will season 5 of The Crown be about?
The synopsis from Netflix's The Crown reveals that the show will take place during the collapse of the Soviet Union, and will show the Queen's 40th jubilee. The series will also focus on Prince Charles' divorce from Princess Diana and the media scrutiny the couple faced during this time. There will also be an examination of Charles' affair with Camilla during his marriage, and Diana's relationship with Dodi Al Fayed.
It is also understood that The Crown won't continue past season 6, with some suggesting that the show creator Peter Morgan wishes to leave time between modern-day real-life events, and their fictionalized re-telling in the Netflix drama.
