When Does ‘The Crown’s New Season 6 Come Out?

British drama fans everywhere are wondering if there’s going to be a new season of The Crown in 2023 and the good news is yes! The Crown Season 6 is going to come out soon on Netflix. So soon that you better clear your calendar before the return of Elizabeth Debicki‘s uncanny interpretation of Princess Diana returns for one final, tragic bow on The Crown! The bad news — besides the fact that we will be seeing The Crown‘s version of Princess Diana’s death soon — is that The Crown Season 6 is the final season of the Emmy-winning drama. The Crown is coming back soon, yes, but to end the story that started all the way back in 2016 with Claire Foy‘s then-Princess Elizabeth…

The Crown is Peter Morgan‘s lavish dramatization of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, following the monarch from her wedding to Prince Philip through the tumultuous ’80s, ’90s, and eventually the early ’00s. Each season of The Crown roughly encapsulates a single decade and the show’s main cast is replaced every two seasons to reflect the passage of time.

The Crown Season 5 ended with the divorce of then-Prince Charles (Dominic West) and his first wife, Princess Diana (Elizabeth Debicki). The Crown Season 6 Part 1 covers the dramatic summer of 1997, in which Diana met boyfriend Dodi Fayed (Salim Daw). The two would eventually perish in a horrific car accident in Paris on August 31, 1997.

The Crown Season 7 Release Date: Will There Be a Season 7 of The Crown?

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Netflix has no plans of making The Crown Season 7. Meaning there is no The Crown Season 7!

The Crown Season 6 is the final season of the hit Netflix show, meaning the story will wrap up with Prince William (Ed McVey) meeting future wife Kate Middleton (Meg Bellamy) during university at St. Andrews. That also means that we’ll never get to see The Crown‘s take on Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s romance. Happy or sad about that? Take it up with The Crown creator Peter Morgan who has steadfastly maintained the series should be a historic drama and not contemporary re-enactment.

The Crown Season 6 is the end of the Netflix hit.
