^^ I believe it's supposed to extend into contemporary times by the last season.
Olivia Coleman will replace Claire Foy as the Queen beginning in Season 3.
Season 2 set to begin December 8.
She's a great actress, I saw her in several seasons of Broadchurch and The Night Manager. Maybe it's cheaper to hire someone vs prosthetics??? Who knows?She looks more like a Kennedy than the House of Windsor. Also she looks young, so if that is the case, why not just age Claire?
I can't wait, I finished Dark up last night so I would be ready!Season 2 drops in the Netfix queue tomorrow!
