What does the final season of "The Crown" bring?
In the sixth season of the series "The Crown", a new era is on the horizon. The first footage from the highly anticipated final season takes us to Scotland in the early 2000s. Prince William (Ed McVey) begins university education at St. Andrews, where she wants to enjoy as normal a life as possible before taking on royal duties. But the future for the crown begins right on campus when he meets Berkshire classmate Kate Middleton (Meg Bellamy).
Young Bellamy's path to the screen is nothing less than a fairy tale: the 19-year-old sent her audition tape for the role of Kate Middleton after seeing a call for auditions on social networks. Meanwhile, McVey is making his first screen appearance after performing at The Old Vic and Hammersmith Riverside Studios after completing his studies at Drama Center London. Their photos taken on location in St. Andrews, including a behind-the-scenes photo at the Northpoint Cafe, where legend has it “Kate met Wills,” can be viewed below.
