The Trailer for 'The Crown' Season 2 Promises More Royal Drama
It feels like we’ve been waiting forever, but you can finally see the first trailer for the second season of Netflix’s sumptuous period drama The Crown.
And just in case you were worried: It definitely does not disappoint.
The show, based on Peter Morgan’s award-winning play The Audience, aims to tell the inside story of Queen Elizabeth II’s life and reign. Wolf Hall’s Claire Foy and Doctor Who’s Matt Smith will reprise their roles as the queen and her husband, Prince Philip, and the drama’s second season will pick up shortly after the conclusion of Season 1. Opening in 1956 with the Suez Crisis that saw the UK invade Egypt, Season 2 will continue through the scandal that ultimately led to the resignation of Prime Minister Harold Macmillan in 1963.
In the new teaser, you can see a few shots of new cast members, including Downton Abbey alum Matthew Goode as society photographer Antony Armstrong-Jones, and Michael C. Hall and Jodi Balfour as President John F. Kennedy and his wife Jackie.
