A first trailer has been unveiled for season four of The Crown, starring Emma Corrin as Princess Diana.

The clip, released by Netflix on Tuesday, also offers a sneak peek of Gillian Anderson as Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.

Josh O’Connor returns as Prince Charles, while Olivia Colman can be seen reprising her role as Queen Elizabeth II.

Helena Bonham Carter once again portrays Princess Margaret. Tobias Menzies returns as Prince Philip.

“Here is the stuff of which fairy tales are made: a prince and princess on their wedding day,” the trailer narrates.

“But fairy tales usually end at this point – with the simple phrase: ‘They lived happily ever after.’”

The narration goes on: “As husband and wife live out their vows, loving and cherishing one another — sharing life’s splendors and miseries, achievements and setbacks — they will be transformed in the process.

“Our faith sees the wedding day not as the place of arrival, but the place where the adventure really begins.”

The Crown’s fourth season will be released on 15 November on Netflix.
