Netflix’s Prince of Wales has the ‘ears for the part’

The actor cast as the Prince of Wales in the next two seasons of The Crown says he “has the ears for the part”.

Josh O’connor, 28, is known for his performance in 2017 film God’s Own Country, for which he won a British Independent Film Award.

On Twitter, O’connor said: “I am thrilled to be joining The Firm for the next instalment of The Crown. I’m very aware it’s a formidably talented family to be joining, but reliably informed I have the ears for the part.”

The third series is due to air on Netflix in 2019.
