Following a triumphant six-season run, 'The Crown' bid adieu, yet the possibility lingers for its resurgence.
Despite a plethora of untold stories, showrunners reportedly insisted on concluding the series with the events of 2005, driven by a commitment to crafting a genuine narrative.
"Our steadfast belief is that the narrative must allow the genuine essence of those moments and historical events to surface, steering clear of immediate, on-the-ground reporting," explained Sulzberger.
She highlighted the importance of halting the narrative in 2005, noting that continuing in 2023 would rely solely on contemporary newspapers or interviews, hindering the crafting of an authentic storyline.
Drawing from Princess Diana's tragic 1997 car crash, featured in the Netflix series, Sulzberger pointed out that crucial information only emerged in 2008, underscoring the necessity of a decade of investigative work to uncover the foundational material.
The question of whether the show will stage a comeback, exploring the lives of current royals, particularly Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, remains shrouded in uncertainty.
