Who Is Challenging Meryl Streep In The Crown Season Four?
Gillian Anderson is to follow in the footsteps of the legendary actress Meryl Streep when she dons the hat of the former Conservative Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher, in the fourth instalment of The Crown. Her chemistry with Olivia Colman, who plays Elizabeth II, will be the centerpiece of the season. A great deal is written about their frosty relation during the 11 years in which Margaret Thatcher was the Prime Minister. How The Crown will portray their relationship remains to be seen.
Anderson is wearing the big shoes worn by the likes of Meryl Streep, Patricia Hodge, and Jennifer Saunders. She is sure to face comparisons from Meryl Streep’s iconic role in the movie Iron Lady. She is best known for her portrayal of special agent Dana Scully in The X-Files. Anderson has had a stellar career on screen, but to face Meryl Streep in the ring is, obviously, not easy. It is left to be seen if Gillian will be able to stand near Meryl Streep when The Crown season 4 releases on Netflix, by the end of the year.
