Luther Ford, the unknown cast as Prince Harry in The Crown

the fanatics of The crown you have to reconcile soon, the series is coming to an end. However, before that, a final season is planned, the first part of which will be released on November 16 on Netflix. And who says new season means new actors? According to indifferences Newsweek , It was Luther Ford, a virtual unknown, who was chosen to play Prince Harry.

The latest installment in the award-winning series will take place over the eight years from 1997 to 2005, from the death of Princess Diana to the marriage of Charles and Camilla. So it was only logical that Prince Harry, who was only 12 years old at the time of his mother’s death, was involved in the casting. We still don’t know the actor who plays him as a child, but we already know who the young adult Harry will be and, surprise, it’s a rookie. A young Englishman named Luther Ford will give his features to Prince Harry and thereby make his first steps in the movies. The actor bears an undeniable resemblance to Meghan Markle’s husband, with expertly tousled red hair, a crooked smile and a serious gaze.

The funniest thing, however, is that the British actor didn’t think he would be hired, going through the casting on a whim. “I did not apply with the expectation of receiving. I just wanted to try it,” he recalls. And added that to build his role, he relied on the famous phrase about the son of Lady Diana: It was in this thought that he transformed into Harry; “I said to myself. “Yes. That kind of summed up my experience of being inside The crown“”, as if to illustrate the happy coincidence that saw him steal the role from other more established English actors, whose names have not been filtered. So, Luther Ford, the new little prince of pan or English cinema?
