However enthusiastic Netflix may be about The Crown’s revival, the show’s creator Peter Morgan has a very different priority.
With the recent rumors that suggest the streaming giant made a U-turn regarding the royal family’s story brought on screen, some may already be raving about The Crown’s potential prequel diving deeper into the royals’ life and its piquant details.
Though nothing has yet been decided about it for sure, it still seems like Netflix needs to be patient for a while as Morgan proceeds with its Broadway show’s big plans.
Are They Reviving The Crown?
According to Deadline’s reports, Peter Morgan is currently keeping himself busy with bringing his Broadway play Patriots to bigger screens. The brand new Broadway show that kicked its 12-week run off earlier in April stars Michael Stuhlbarg as Russian billionaire Boris Berezovsky recounting the latter’s story through his...

With the century’s biggest royal drama show The Crown ending its run back in 2023, the TV industry was surely left with no other choice but to switch its attention to something else rather than The Royal Family’s life full of its own ups and downs. This probably was accepted by many production companies, but not by Netflix.
The streaming’s Royal-ish release of last month Scoop wasn’t expected to be a hit that massive, but the movie’s results seemingly provoked a big change of plans for Netflix in the nearest years.
Starring Gillian Anderson as journalist Emily Maitlis, Scoop follows a sequence of events that led Mailtis to carrying out a scandalous and viral interview with Queen Elizabeth II’s son Prince Andrew regarding his relationships with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Though many critics called the actual interview footage a much more compelling and deep thing to watch in this case,...

Exclusive: Peter Morgan’s next project for Netflix is likely to be a film adaptation of his stage play Patriots rather than more of The Crown, according to sources close to the writer.
There has been a flurry of reports in the UK this week about The Crown returning following the success of Scoop, but Deadline understands that Morgan is planning to take a break from the royals.
One project Morgan is prioritizing is a screen version of Patriots, which chronicles the rise of billionaire Boris Berezovsky and the deputy mayor of St. Petersburg, Vladimir Putin.
The play recouped during its 12-week run at the Noel Coward Theatre in London’s West End, helping it transfer to Broadway’s Ethel Barrymore Theatre.
Netflix backed the Broadway show, marking its Broadway producing debut. A source said the deal also included a commitment to develop a Patriots film. The project is yet to be fully greenlit.

Princess Diana‘s sapphire and diamond engagement ring set off a trend of using precious gemstones as engagement rings and remains one of the most memorable celebrity and royal family engagement rings ever. However, Diana’s engagement ring was wildly unpopular with the House of Windsor family despite its popularity with the public.
Princess Diana’s engagement ring was iconic with everyone but the royal family
After only meeting 13 times, Prince Charles proposed marriage to Princess Diana. He was 32, and she was 19.
As a modern couple, Charles wanted Diana to pick her own ring. So, in 1981, Charles presented Diana with a selection of Garrard rings. At the time, Garrard was the crown jeweler.
Per Vogue, Diana decided on the stunning Ceylon sapphire stone surrounded by diamonds set in white gold. However, the royal family was unhappy with Diana’s choice because the ring was a stock item. This meant that...

During a billionaire’s fundraiser in Palm Beach, Florida, Donald Trump implied that his opponent, President Joe Biden, had soiled himself on the Resolute Desk. This famed presidential desk sits in the Oval Office.
Trump made these comments in front of a crowd of very wealthy guests. He slammed Biden’s border policy and criticized him for making poor decisions while sitting at the Resolute Desk, which Britain’s Queen Victoria had gifted to the United States in 1880.
“The Resolute Desk is beautiful,” the former president stated during a 45-minute presentation at a dinner hosted by investor John Paulson on April 6. “Ronald Reagan used it, others used it.”
“And [Biden is] using it,” Trump said. “I might not use it the next time. It’s been soiled. And I mean that literally, which is sad.”

[This story contains spoilers from the series premiere of Mary & George.]
In 2018, while flicking through the LGBTQ+ section of a copy of Time Out magazine, television producer Liza Marshall found a listing for a lecture about the sexuality of James VI and I, who reigned as the king of Scotland from 1567 to 1625 and, following the death of Queen Elizabeth I, also became the first Stuart king of England from 1603 to 1625. Despite having studied history during college, Marshall was surprised to discover that James had three significant relationships with men in his lifetime — the last of which forms the basis of the new historical drama Mary & George, which premiered Friday on Starz.
“It’s fair to say, at the beginning of the process, nobody wanted to make this show. No one knows anything about the Jacobean era,” Marshall tells The Hollywood Reporter of the 22 years that James spent as the ruler of both England and Scotland. “We know about Elizabeth I,...

First, King Charles revealed his cancer, and then Kate Middleton was sidelined for months with what was called a “planned” abdominal surgery.
The public wants to hear more information about Kate Middleton, and because of the palace’s radio silence, wild conspiracy theories have started to surface.
Kate was in a coma, got a facelift, and even left her husband, Prince William, have all been mentioned in the news and on social media, according to the Daily Dot.
Kensington Palace stated that Kate Middleton would recover until Easter 2024 and only offer updates when something significant happened.
William and Kate shared a photo on their Instagram account to try to quell the rumors, but that did not go well because it seemed photoshopped.

Russell T Davies has a plan for Doctor Who’s survival: New. Fans.
It’s the same plan he had in 2005 when the show was first revived, but this time, it comes with a much bigger piggy bank courtesy of Disney+, and an appendix titled something like ‘Marvel(lous) World Domination’. International streaming, spin-offs, famous guest stars who bring crossover fandoms with them… It’s all about welcoming new viewers to the massive world of Doctor Who and creating lifelong fans in the making. Again.
Things are off to a solid start after David Tennant’s return in the three anniversary specials and Ncuti Gatwa’s debut adventure in “The Church on Ruby Road”, but there’s more fanfare to come, says Davies. Speaking at a Cardiff press conference in November 2023, he described the international streaming launch so far as low-key. “Disney are going to launch it massively when Ncuti’s first season comes along.

Although the royal family appears stuffy and traditional, their Christmas traditions are. The clan is known for gifting each other presents that are a bit on the strange and savage side. Here are some of the wildest and weirdest gifts the royal family has given each other.
Weird gag gifts reign the royal family roost
The royal family relies more on gifts with a funny twist than costly presents for each other during the Christmas holidays. The amount spent on a gift makes no difference if it doesn’t generate a laugh from its recipient.
Royal correspondent Katie Nicholl explained in the documentary A Very Royal Christmas: Sandringham Secrets, “If you can achieve something that is tongue in cheek and will have the Queen laughing, then you’ve really done well that Christmas.”

Leave it to the British royal family to have a unique approach to opening Christmas gifts. They don’t simply open presents at their annual holiday get-together in the English countryside. No, it’s a little more sophisticated — and organized — than that. Spoiler: How British royals open Christmas presents involves tables and labels before quickly devolving into a “free-for-all.”
The royal family opens gifts on Christmas Eve
To start is when British royals open Christmas gifts. They don’t follow what many do and wake up on Dec. 25 to excitedly open presents found under the tree. Instead, they open gifts on Christmas Eve, a nod to the royal family’s German ancestry.
“The whole family gathered to open gifts on Christmas Eve, as always, a German tradition that survived the anglicizing of the family surname from Saxe-Coburg-Gotha to Windsor,” Prince Harry explained in his January 2023 memoir Spare.

Kate Middleton continues to be the ultimate royal fashion recycler by wearing the exact same look during a Buckingham Palace white-tie event. The Princess of Wales paired the Lovers Knot Tiara with a blush-colored gown at the Buckingham Palace Diplomatic Reception as she stood alongside her husband, Prince William, at the royal event. She previously wore this exact outfit in the summer of 2023.

The Princess of Wales joined her husband, Prince William, King Charles, and Queen Camilla at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday evening for the royal family’s annual Diplomatic Reception. The event welcomes hundreds of members of the Diplomatic Corps to the royal residence.

Every Sex and the City fan will instantly recognize two high-wattage looks up for sale in the latest event presented by Julien’s Auctions — one piece worn onscreen by series star and executive producer Sarah Jessica Parker — as they’ve transcended the function of costumes or fashion to become part of the show’s enduring iconography.
“Unstoppable: Signature Styles of Iconic Women in Fashion” is indeed an apt title for an upcoming auction that includes the three-tiered belted tutu skirt worn by Parker in Satc‘s opening credits (and again in the 2008 movie). The skirt was famously purchased by the show’s costume designer, Patricia Field, who discovered the piece in a $5 bargain bin and fashioned it into one of the most-recognized looks in the series.

Sheila Hayman uncovers the story of the pioneering composer whose talent was overshadowed by her brother Felix due to a long history of sexism in the classical music world
Writer and film-maker Sheila Hayman tells an inspirational story here about her great-great-great-grandmother, Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel; her film constitutes an important critique of today’s classical music world in which 90% of concerts are of works by men.
Fanny was the brilliant but neglected composer who spent her entire lifetime and much of her afterlife in the shadow of her famous (and adored) composer younger brother Felix. Many of her pieces were attributed to him, including the sparkling lied Italien, which had the honour of being sung by no less a person than Queen Victoria when Felix was a guest at Buckingham Palace in 1842 (he sheepishly admitted the injustice at the time).

The weekly podcast features Ozzy sitting around a table with his wife Sharon and children Jack and Kelly. This particular conversation started earlier in the episode when the family was discussing a pair of Queen Victoria’s underwear that were once sold at auction.
Later on, Sharon mentioned that she once owned Marilyn Monroe’s shoes, to which Jack responded, “Hang on a second, so it’s weird to have the Queen’s underwear, but you can have Marilyn Monroe’s shoes?” To which Sharon retorted, “Shoes, a handbag, a dress is different than somebody’s bloody knickers that they farted in and shit in.

Royal offspring Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis have an intense school schedule that keeps them in class six days a week. Unlike most children, who attend classes five days a week, Prince William and Kate Middleton’s kids only get one day off to relax. Here’s why the Cambridge’s education is so different than other kids.
Why do Prince William and Kate Middleton’s children attend school six days a week?
