The Crown 4 trailer explained
The 3-minute-trailer starts off by highlighting a professional animosity between Margaret Thatcher and Queen Elizabeth, which later results in the two, developing a thirst for power and position in the UK. Margaret and Elizabeth have a tense meeting with each other, where the queen acknowledges the idea of having two women running the country, however, their strong personalities appear to be at odds. The second part of the trailer largely focuses on Princess Diana’s increasing fame across the globe, which hampers, and at some point, surpasses the queen’s goodwill.
