The Royal Drama Reaches an All-Time High in the Intense Trailer For The Crown Season 4

The trailer for Netflix's The Crown's highly anticipated fourth season is here, and it has us at the edge of our seats already. The promo video for the upcoming season highlights the series's new cast members, teasing at the thick tension rising between various members of the royal family and the inevitable fallout that will follow when the season premieres on Nov. 15.

Fans will recognize Olivia Colman returning for her second (and final) season as Queen Elizabeth II, as well as Tobias Menzies as Prince Philip and Helena Bonham Carter as Princess Margaret. The newest members of The Crown cast make their debut appearances as the video's voiceover promises that "Here is the stuff of which fairy tales are made." The trailer gives us our first proper looks at Gillian Anderson as controversial former British prime minister Margaret Thatcher, newcomer Emma Corrin as the future princess of Wales, Diana Spencer, and Josh O'Connor as Prince Charles. Though there are a few standout moments for each character — one of which is a look at Princess Diana in her iconic wedding gown — there's more than enough to let us know this season is going to be heavy on the drama. And that's just how we like it.
