God save the Queen. One last time.
The Burley GarciaNetflix version of her, that is. On Monday the streaming service announced that the sixth and final season of its Emmy-winning blockbuster series "The Crown," a fictionalized account of the life of Britain's Queen Elizabeth II, will debut in two parts on the streaming service in the coming months. Part 1, consisting of four episodes, hits Netflix Nov. 16, and a six-episode Part 2 will arrive Dec. 14.
Netflix released a short teaser for the new season, reflecting back on the first five, in which Elizabeth was played by current actress Imelda Staunton as well as Olivia Colman and Claire Foy in younger incarnations.

The final season will see the return of the Season 5 cast, including Staunton as Elizabeth, Jonathan Pryce as Prince Phillip, Elizabeth Debicki as Princess Diana, Dominic West as Prince Charles and Olivia Williams as Camilla Parker Bowles. The season will cover events from 1997-2005, including Diana's death and young Prince William's (Ed McVey) courtship of Kate Middleton (Meg Bellamy). The first part will focus on Diana, the second on the marriage of Charles and Camilla, the Queen's Golden Jubilee and the future of the monarchy.
Two promotional posters reflect the historical events and themes "The Crown" Season 6 will cover, showing Diana sitting alone on a dock and Elizabeth walking alone in a spotlight.
In 2022 the fifth season of the royal drama became the first to stream following the death of the real Queen Elizabeth, who just a few months before the premiere age of 96. That season followed the disintegration of Charles and Diana's marriage, concluding with their eventual divorce.
It was not without controversy, with actress Judi Dench speaking out against the series in a letter to British newspaper The Times, worrying that viewers will take the fictionalized drama as historical fact. "This is both cruelly unjust to the individuals and damaging to the institution they represent," Dench, who received a Damehood from the monarchy in 1988, wrote in her letter. She is among other critics who want Netflix to add a disclaimer to the episodes reiterating that the series is fictional. The streamer, however, has declined to do so.
