In this long run journey till the third season, the queen has traveled so far in life that it is necessary to show her aging for which the show so far had took the help of make-up but now the time has arrived (not now really but later) that the role of queen needs, recasting.
The lead, Coleman, feels quite sad since she is most attached to her role. It’s quite difficult for her to part from her role, but everyone knows that this had had to happen, it was meant to happen because it’s a biography.
Coleman, with her heavy heart, has named some names whom she wants to carry out with this role.

Jenna also eagerly wanted Olivia Colman to do this role, but she is occupied for her roles in other shows.
Jenna shares her reviews about her old age makeup, where she didn’t sound happy enough.` She told in an interview that her makeup was kinda tiring with no foundation and all just some concealer and done, might be that’s how a mother of seven kids look like or might be she is aging.
But, the casting team is not up to replace all the current characters. Tom Hughes, who plays Prince Albert, isn’t going to be recast.
Tom shared his desire that he wants to play the prince until the prince dies.
Apart from Coleman, Tom, too, had to take up certain measures to be fit in the role of Prince Albert, like he had cut down his diet for the role.
Well, the writers right now want to brew the chemistry of two a little longer before the recasting is done.
