First look images of The Crown depict Diana and Dodi Fayed’s blossoming romance
The blossoming relationship between Diana, Princess of Wales and Dodi Fayed has been teased in first look images from the final season of The Crown.
On Monday, the streaming giant released a selection of images which include a picture of Diana on a yacht belonging to business tycoon Mohamed Al Fayed.
Mr Al Fayed had invited Diana and her sons – Prince Harry and Prince William – to holiday with him on the Al Fayed yacht alongside his film producer son Dodi (Khalid Abdalla) where they were followed by the paparazzi.
Speaking in April, Debicki said: “I think it’s a really unique challenge as an actor, to portray those days.
“I really just trusted in Peter’s emotional blueprint that he created for us to follow.
“It’s his interpretation and I think it made emotional sense to me, so I clung to that. Because, obviously, it’s devastating and it’s fraught and we can never know.”
The hit royal drama will also see stars Imelda Staunton and Dominic West return as Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Charles respectively.
Staunton, who took the role over from Olivia Colman and Claire Foy to play the Queen, said: “I’ve been living with her for a long time so, if anything, I felt more comfortable this time.
While West added: “I think he’s got real sadness to him and real compassion and what’s great about The Crown is that you see these public figures in private.
“I talked to a lot of people who have met him because he’s met a lot of people, he’s met probably more than anyone except the Queen and Prince Philip. Almost everyone has extremely warm, kind things to say about him.”
The two princes are also portrayed alongside their father in another preview image, who is wearing a dark green kilt ensemble and holding a shepherd’s crook.
Actor Daw, who plays Mr Al Fayed, said: “I adore this character. I love him so much and I enjoy portraying him because I love him.
“In this series, he is so human and he’s so colourful. He’s hard sometimes, very hard, funny, like a child – with his son he’s sometimes very, very hard but he has plenty of love for his son and the audience will see that and will feel exactly what I’m talking about.”
