Fans of the hit Netflix series The Crown, which tells the story of the British royal family, were very disappointed when the show ended almost immediately after the death of Princess Diana. But their desire to see new episodes of their favorite show may come true to some extent.

In a commentary to ET , the series' author Peter Morgan hinted that he would not mind writing another season. However, it will not be a story about the adult Prince William and Prince Harry and their wives. Instead, he does not rule out that in the future, when he has a little rest from the dramatic events around the royal family, he may create a prequel series to The Crown. "Maybe later on, at some point in my life, I'll miss it enough to pick up the pen again," the screenwriter said.

According to Morgan, he tries not to get closer than 10 years to the real events he describes in his works. But in the case of the British royal family, he stopped after 20 years. So his hit show ended in 2004, two years after the 50th anniversary of the Queen's reign. "I wanted to make sure that there was essentially a whole generation between where we are now and where the show ends... so it's still a show that's historical, even if it ends in the 21st century," the playwright said.

Morgan's reluctance to return to the history of the royal family was also strongly influenced by the real death of Queen Elizabeth II. In the final episode, the monarch, played by Imelda Staunton, reflects on the future of the country after she is gone. This puts a powerful end to the series.

In another interview, the screenwriter hinted that he had an idea for a future prequel. However, he emphasized that he needs to fulfill other creative commitments before tackling a new project.

If all the circumstances work out, Morgan intends to take his audience to a long-gone era. The appeal of the prequel idea for the screenwriter himself is the opportunity to immerse himself in historical events that preceded the storyline of the original series. Thus, he will be able to offer viewers a fresh look at the path of the royal family.
