"Change is coming. 15th November," Netflix wrote in another tweet on Tuesday, as it released four new images from the series. While Claire Foy played the Queen in the first two seasons of The Crown, Oscar-winner Olivia Colman took over the reins from Season 3. The fourth season of the show will feature an ensemble cast that includes names like Helena Bonham Carter, Tobias Menzies, Erin Doherty, Emerald Fennell, Marion Bailey and Gillian Anderson.

Reportedly, season four begins in the late 1970s, where Queen Elizabeth, played by Olivia Colman, and her family find themselves preoccupied with safeguarding the line of succession by securing an appropriate bride for Prince Charles, played by Josh O'Connor, who is still unmarried at 30.
