The Crown Season 5: The Hidden Cameo Was Revealed
Netflix marked The Crown's return with a royally good surprise. On Nov. 9, Netflix released the highly anticipated fifth season of The Crown, which featured an unexpected cameo in the premiere episode.
Claire's Elizabeth addresses her subjects and reveals the name of the new royal yacht, Britannia. "I hope that this brand-new vessel, like your brand-new queen," she says, "will prove to be dependable and constant, capable of weathering any storm." As the scene concludes, The Crown cuts to Imelda's Elizabeth, who is now 65 and viewed as an outdated monarch by her people. The juxtaposition certainly teases the drama to come for season five's Elizabeth—including Prince Charles and Princess Diana's crumbling marriage, questions about government spending for the royal's way of life, etc.
Imelda takes the crown, pun intended, from season three and four star Olivia Colman. And while the Harry Potter alum makes for an impressive third act in The Crown's tenure, Imelda hailed the production's hair and makeup team for helping her with her notable transformation.

Catch Imelda and Jonathan step into these royal roles, as season five of The Crown is now available to stream on Netflix.
