Based on an award-winning play ("The Audience") by showrunner Peter Morgan, this lavish, Netflix-original drama chronicles the life of Queen Elizabeth II from the 1940s to modern times. The series begins with an inside look at the early reign of the queen, who ascended the throne at age 25 after the death of her father, King George VI. As the decades pass, personal intrigues, romances, and political rivalries are revealed that played a big role in events that shaped the later years of the 20th century.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Elizabeth Debicki's haunting portrayal does right by the Princess of Wales, but The Crown's final season often feels like a reign extended past its prime.

I, for one, will miss this treasure — even this, at times, dutifully dull wrap — and already do. Go to Full Review Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times Dec 16, 2023

Weird depictions of Diana tarnish the final episodes of The Crown... Go to Full Review Lili Loofbourow Washington Post Dec 15, 2023
The Crown is a flawed but fascinating experiment in historical television that I value for (among other things) the joyful, even reckless, inconsistency of its characterizations. Go to Full Review Ed Power Irish Times Apr 8, 2025
...Peter Morgan’s epic valentine to Britain’s longest-serving monarch has now come to a thudding close with six concluding episodes that have all the panache of an old Spitting Image sketch. Go to Full Review Francesca Steele iNews.co.uk Dec 11, 2024
4/5
The last ever episodes linger on the late Queen's fascinating combination of steadfastness and flexibility, harking back to the reason we fell in love with The Crown in the first place. Go to Full Review Jeff Beck The Blu Spot Oct 22, 2024
3.5/5
The season balances out to become a pretty good final outing. It may start off rather weak, but it comes back remarkably strong, hitting its stride and once again giving the viewer a remarkable front seat to the important events of the royal family. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Ishikura M @Mikiya Oct 9, 2026 とにかく最高。自分も日本という君主制の国に住んでいるが、改めて制度について考えさせられた See more Matt L @Mattliptak Jan 28, 2026 The Crown – Season 6 serves as a solid and respectful finale to an ambitious series. While the season opens strongly with the emotional weight of Princess Diana’s death, the middle stretch does feel a bit stale and drawn out, suggesting the show had reached its natural endpoint. That said, the final episodes regain focus, leaning into reflection and legacy, with welcome return appearances by Olivia Colman and Claire Foy that bring a satisfying sense of closure. Dramatic, thoughtful, and still well-acted, this was the right time to bring The Crown to an end—and it ultimately does so with dignity. See more Matheus F @matheusf_neto Sep 3, 2025 Diana impeccably played by Elizabeth Debicki. See more Julian P @JulianPoulter Mar 11, 2025 Sure it's got its flaws but this is basically a very good continuation of the previous series and the critics have got it wrong in my opinion. Brilliant casting, well acted and well written. The interaction between William and Harry is superb, Diana is flawless and Dominic West, Imelda Staunton are just perfect. See more s c @RT10042420 Jan 31, 2025 Season 6 was very disappointing. See more Abed D @Abeddani Mar 7, 2024 I need a lot of time to leave the state of frenzy that this season inserted me into..what a marvel to the eyes and ears.. how could we not wait another grandiose performance by these greats and articulate and ironclad lines and sentences writtten by the series writers..thanks for the overwhelming experience you guys created a longlasting masterpiece See more Read all reviews
