Despite season 3 having only recently premiered on Netflix, there’s already talk about the upcoming runs of the hit biographical show The Crown. Currently, Oscar-winning actress Olivia Colman is playing the role of Queen Elizabeth II in a series that depicts the royal’s life from the 1940s onward.
Now, news is spreading that Imelda Staunton will be taking over the role for The Crown‘s fifth and sixth seasons. Yes, diabolical Dolores Umbridge herself will be donning the titular royal headgear as she portrays her Majesty, according to a report from The Guardian.
It seems a little premature for the creators to be thinking so far ahead, but it obviously means the streaming giant have high hopes for the show’s continued success, and Staunton’s name on the bill is bound to draw some attention. This news also comes shortly after Netflix dismissed the report as mere rumors and speculation.
