While many viewers and show runner Peter Morgan himself expected six seasons, Morgan told The Hollywood Reporter that Season 5 felt like "the perfect time and place to stop."

Each season of Netflix's The Crownhas covered roughly a decade in the British monarch's life and times, with Season 3 taking us up to 1977. Season 4 will likely cover the '80s and some of the '90s (we already have a Princess Diana actress cast, though she has yet to appear), ending with a fifth season before Prince William and Prince Harry's adulthood (so no Kate Middleton or Meghan Markle).

Staunton, a longtime Crownfan, expressed how excited she was to take on the role.

"As an actor it was a joy to see how both Claire Foy and Olivia Colman brought something special and unique to Peter Morgan’s scripts," she said in a statement. "I am genuinely honored to be joining such an exceptional creative team and to be taking The Crownto its conclusion."

The CrownSeasons 1-3 are now streaming on Netflix.
