“Princess Diana’s soul, her words and her actions live in so many hearts,” Debicki said in a statement on Twitter account to the TV series «The Crown».
On Sunday night, the BBC revealed that the actor, who has previously starred in films such as “The Great Gatsby” and “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2”, will take over the role of Princess Diana in the last two seasons of the critically acclaimed and award-winning Netflix series “The Crown”. In the series’ fourth season, which premieres during 2021, it is Emma Corrin who plays Diana.
– It is a real privilege and an honor to join this masterful series, which I have been hooked on since the first episode , Debricki writes further in Tweet.
The first season of “The Crown” came in 2016. The series is briefly about the life of Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain and her reign in Britain. Claire Foy played the Queen for the first two seasons, while Matt Smith had the role of Prince Philip.
The last two seasons are slated to premiere on Netflix in 2022 and 2023, and Corrin is not the only actor who will be replaced before we get this far. The role of Queen Elizabeth II will be portrayed from season five onwards by Imelda Staunton, while Jonathan Pryce will be seen as Prince Philip.
