Tobias Menzies will be the new Prince Philip on The Crown
Netflix’s The Crown will be jumping forward in time a little bit for its next two seasons, but since stars Claire Foy and Matt Smith cannot do the same, the streaming service is recasting the central roles of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. Olivia Colman was already named as the new Queen back in October, and now Variety is reporting that Tobias Menzies from Game Of Thrones and AMC’s The Terror will be taking over for Smith as Prince Philip. Helena Bonham Carter will also be joining the show, replacing Vanessa Kirby as Princess Margaret.
