Fans are waiting with baited breath to see Olivia Colman make her debut as Queen Elizabeth II in The Crown's third season, and replacing Claire Foy.

And new images have revealed a closer look at the actress, 44, alongside her co-stars Tobias Menzies, 44, Helena Bonham Carter, 52, and Ben Daniels, 54.

In the second image, Helena can be seen with an blissful smile across her face as she looks up at her on-screen husband Ben, who plays Antony Armstrong-Jones, also known by his royal title Lord Snowdon.

The pair appear to be in the throes of romance as they dance together, in contrast to the series which is expected to follow their deteriorating marriage.

Of Helena taking on the role from Vanessa Kirby, showrunner Peter Morgan told Entertainment Weekly: 'Helena doesn’t look like Vanessa, but the spirit is so similar.'

Olivia, who is also set to portray 18th century English monarch Queen Anne in The Favourite, joked with the publication about her regal role: 'It’s in my contract now — I’ll only play queens!'

While, when asked if she expected people to curtsy she added jokingly: 'Yes, I give people a clip round the ear if they don’t!'

The third and fourth series of The Crown is set to follow the monarch's rule across the 1960s and 1970s, and it will also see an older Prince Charles played by Bafta nominee Josh O’Connor embark on the beginnings of romance between him and Princess Diana.

While Charles Dance will also make an appearance as Lord Mountbatten, who may be involved in huge storylines, including Prince Charles' and a young Camilla's (Duchess of Cornwall) love affair.

With the third series of The Crown focusing on Queen Elizabeth II's reign in the sixties and seventies, viewers will get to see the youngsters becoming close friends and later a couple.

Yet the young Prince travelled overseas to join the Royal Navy in early 1973 and their relationship then ended rather abruptly.

Some have often speculated that Lord Mountbatten - a dear confidante of Prince Charles' - conspired to end the relationship so that the future monarch could eventually marry his granddaughter Amanda Knatchbull. 

Royal decree: Olivia, who is also set to portray 18th century English monarch Queen Anne in The Favourite, joked with the publication: 'It’s in my contract now — I’ll only play queens!'

Broadchurch star Olivia has taken over the lead role from Claire Foy and was confirmed to be playing Queen Elizabeth II in October.

The first series of The Crown was one of the most critically acclaimed dramas of 2016 - winning two Golden Globes and two SAG awards, and being nominated for four BAFTAs.

The show is also the most expensive television series ever made - with the first series costing $100 million.

The new series is expected to land on the online streaming site in early 2019.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
