Netflix recently dropped the trailer of the fourth season of The Crown, which is all set to hit the streaming giant on November 15. Starring actors Gillian Anderson, Olivia Colman and Helena Bonham Carter in the leading roles, the show is largely based on an award-winning play, The Audience. The Netflix-original drama chronicles the life of Queen Elizabeth II from the 1940s to modern times.
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.
More so, the makers of the show have also incorporated some real footage and clips from the clashes during Thatcher's tenure as a Prime Minister, making the series even more appealing. Overall, the trailer promises a gripping story, with very strong female characters taking the lead. Take a look at The Crown’s trailer.

Season4 of #TheCrown is probably the most anticipated season ever! Gillian Anderson vs Olivia Colman is the sundae and Diana vs Charles is definitely the cherry on top!!!

I've been wanting to @GillianA to come back on my screen for a while now after @TheFallTV and @NBCHannibal, so I can already tell this season of #TheCrown is going to be a binge-watch affair for me. https://t.co/rjd2cwMRM2

Ah, what the hell... I'd be perfectly happy if this season of #TheCrown is just ten hours of Olivia Coleman, Gillian Anderson and Helena Bonham-Carter in a room serving resting contemptuous bitch face. https://t.co/Xcp1XhN2Ef
