Elizabeth Debicki feels The Crown ended in the right place with season six.
The actress, who portrayed Princess Diana in the Emmy-winning Netflix series, recently told People magazine that she doesnt think the show needs any follow-up seasons.
I think it ended in the right place, really, Debicki said. I think it respected its own cycle in a way.
The Crown, created by Peter Morgan, followed the political rivalries and romances of Queen Elizabeth IIs reignand how they shaped Britains second half of the 20th century. The show ran from 2016 to 2023. It always kind of knew where it was going, and then I think there was a sense from the writing from Peter as well, that it understood its own end in a way. Its very delicate, I think, the MaXXXine actress added. He did an amazing job wrapping up such an enormous journey. I dont really like the word journey, but it was a big journey for people to go on. When you commit to watching six seasons of a show, you need it to end properly.
Debicki portrayed the mother of Prince HarryandPrince William starting in season five, taking over from Emma Corrin, who played young Diana in season four. The last two seasons centered on the final days before Princess Dianas fatal car crash in August 1997.
I thought it was very respectful, and I know that the depth and degree of conversation around how to end the series was immense, and I thought it was really kind of delicate and intricately done, the actress said of the final season. I think everybodys performance in this season is really kind of magnificent. I know Im biased because its my show, but I think everyone did really incredible work.
Debicki also scored two Emmy nominations for best supporting actress in a drama series for her performance inThe Crown, including for the 2023 Emmy Awards and 2024 ceremony on Sept. 15.
