The cast list for Netflix's third season of The Crown continues to add impressive new names to its call sheet.
The latest British thespian to join the royal fold is Paul Bettany, who'll take over Matt Smith's old post as Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Bettany is expected to star opposite Olivia Colman, as she steps into the award-winning role of Queen Elizabeth II from Claire Foy, as well as Helena Bonham Carter, who'll become Princess Margaret after Vanessa Kirby's tenure is done.
The new season of The Crown is expected to follow the Queen, Prince Philip, Margaret and their families into middle age as they grapple with the political and personal dramas under the weight of their titular crowns.
No word yet who will be cast to replace Victoria Hamilton as the Queen Mother, Jeremy Northam as Antony Eden, or Matthew Goode as Margaret's initial husband Tony Armstrong-Jones.
The first two seasons of The Crown are currently streaming on Netflix.
