"You see the whole set up to the characters in the first season, and season two has given us an opportunity to really go deeper," Kirby said. The first season won a 2017 Golden Globe for best drama series, while Foy took home the award for best actress in a TV drama. Claire Foy won a Golden Globe for her portrayal of Queen Elizabeth II on The Crown. Though The Crown has been renewed for a third season, Foy, 33, and Smith, 35, are being replaced rather than aged to fit the next era. "If this show is to work in the way that I think it could, changing the actors every two years is a really clever idea."
