'The Crown' Season 3 Takes Shape With Anne & Charles Cast

The Crown has finished recasting the Royal Family for Season 3, leaving only Andrew Parker-Bowles and Camilla Shand's roles unfilled.

Filming for The Crown Season 3 has finally gotten underway after lengthy delays. Netflix's failure to anticipate how difficult recasting the entire main roster of their hit show has cost them a 2018 release date. The series will now not arrive until at least the early months of 2019, meaning they'll not be eligible for the Golden Globes or SAG-AFRA (aka the Screen Actors' Guild Awards) next January. But the wait looks to have been worth it, as the entire royal family has now been established for the next two seasons.

The series found their Elizabeth replacement early with Olivia Colman (Broadchurch) taking over for Claire Foy. Princess Margaret was next with Helena Bonham-Carter (Ocean's 8) agreeing to take on the role being left open by Vanessa Kirby. Prince Phillip was last, with Tobias Mendes (Outlander) stepping into outgoing star  Matt Smith's shoes.

Over the last month, the show has revealed the rest of the royal family.
