See Helena Bonham Carter as Princess Margaret in 'The Crown'

On Wednesday, Netflix released the first image of Helena Bonham Carter as Princess Margaret.

Speaking about taking on the role of Margaret from Vanessa Kirby who won a BAFTA for it Helen says: "I'm not sure which I am more terrified about - doing justice to the real Princess Margaret or following in the shoes of Vanessa Kirby".

Helena Bonham Carter's Princess Margaret drags on a cigarette and Ben Daniels' Antony Armstrong-Jones has got his camera out in the first images of the pair released by Netflix.

Following in the footsteps of Foy who portrayed the monarch during the early years of her reign in The Crown, Colman has been chosen to play The Queen in the third and fourth series of the critically-acclaimed drama, which is expected to cover events from 1964 to 1976.
