  • The Affair actor Dominic West has reportedly inked a deal with Netflix to essay the role of Prince Charles on The Crown.

    The 51-year-old is slated to play the husband of late Princess Diana in the fifth and sixth seasons of this famous series on the British Empire.

    This news comes days after the first trailer of The Crown Season 4 was launched.

  • If everything goes as planned, West would star opposite Elizabeth Debicki, who will be Diana in the final two seasons of this series.

    He would take the baton from Josh O'Connor, who plays the young Prince Charles in seasons three and four of The Crown.

    Connor's stint in the fourth season covers Charles's souring relationship with the people's most favorite royal member.

    Going by the brief, the show creators needed a promising and solid performer and so, West was the best bet.

    "Show bosses looked at several stars for the sought-after role, but he was by far their preferred actor," a source said.
