It is important to note, however, that none of the series’ previous trailers have carried this disclaimer though previous press statements had carried similar language. It seems to be a response to the recent events surrounding the new season. The new season and its depiction might play a role in how some of the viewing public see the new British monarch, King Charles III, whose character is a central figure in the new season.

Interest in the series, driven by the death of the British monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, and how the new season’s depiction of the latter years of Princess Diana’s life will turn out has drawn backlash.\nImage: Netflix\n'The closer the drama comes to our present times, the more freely it seems willing to blur the lines between historical accuracy and crude sensationalism,' Dench wrote in the piece, urging Netflix to add a disclaimer ahead of each episode emphasizing that the series is a fictional accounting of historical events. Netflix has decided to add a disclaimer to its latest The Crown trailer following these difficult weeks.

Yet new challenges are on the horizon. It reads: “inspired by real events, this fictional dramatisation tells the story of Queen Elizabeth II and the political and personal events that shaped her reign”. The highly anticipated fifth season will likely be one of Netflix’s most watched shows of the year but, since the death of Queen Elizabeth II, it has faced a bumpy ride.\n'Despite this week stating publicly that 'The Crown' has always been a 'fictionalized drama,' the program makers have resisted all calls for them to carry a disclaimer at the start of each episode.

RELATED: ‘The Crown’ Season 5 Trailer Reveals Princess Diana and Queen Elizabeth II in Crisis The criticism faced by The Crown and its latest season has come from many quarters including Oscar-winning actress, Dame Judi. The British actress who is also close to the King and Queen Consort said Netflix "seems willing to blur the lines between historical accuracy and crude sensationalism". Others who have criticized the series include former prime minister Sir John Major, and former Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden.
