I loved Jonathan Pryce's performance as Philipp. I think he matched this season's Queen very well, and just like the previous actors, he gave the character a lot of life, of personality. He definetly is one of the reasons I enjoyed this season as much as I did. Thank you for bringing him to the show! He is simply a phenomenal actor, and ever since I first saw him as Gouvernor Swan in the POTC movies as a kid, I can not help but feel that little pang of delight when encoutering him in another role.

I absolutely love the cast of season 5. I just think the stories they were telling in season 5 weren't as compelling as in season 4. I'm looking forward to season 6.

@donedeal69 Год назад

He is phenomenal in Game of Thrones which is when I first became aware of him. He was one of the assets to the season 5 and 6 arcs because he was such a different kind of character that he conveyed so convincingly that a lot of people hated his guts yet his conviction towards his beliefs was unwavering and he got to play that part exactly how it should have been surpassing my expectations. Then learning he will be cast to play the late Prince Phillip was an odd choice considering Matt Smith will always own that role in our hearts. It took time to get used to Toby but with Pryce I was convinced from the first episode and adjusted very well to the transfer of the role being in capable hands

@lexusdriver1963 Год назад

Jonathan Pryce did a really good job playing Prince Philip. Fun fact this is the second Netflix project Jonathan Pryce was involved. The first he was in was the Netflix film The Two Popes.

@impm1164 Год назад

no, he did not

How’s that a fun fact? Think most people know it seeing as how 2 popes was 2019. It even talks about it in this video. Z level comment

@ayaselmani932 Год назад

He was amazing as Philip

@emmae8857 Год назад

I think Jonathan Pryce is a good actor, but to me, a better fit for a Prince Phillip at this stage of life would have been Charles Dance. I think they missed a trick by having him as Lord Mountbatten. He would have been really commanding as Prince Phillip.

@gkmacbeth8225 Год назад

I would have gone for Bill Nighy.

@mattlufcy1254 Год назад

I don't know, @emmae8857 , he really did play Lord Mountbatten very, very well. Mountbatten was a man who exuded gravitas, and Charles Dance was one of the few I could really see doing that role justice. Pryce has that bit of comedy and humor about him that fits Phillip a bit better, I think.

@donedeal69 Год назад

No way... Charles Dance has already and perfectly played Dicky...Lord Mountbatten's older version which was perfectly cast just like the Young version.. I'm sure there were other options that would have been fitting but even if Charles' Dance has hadn't been a part of The Crown before I think it would be unconvincing and a waste to see him do something that gives him too much screen time...he's the sort of actor who shines in iconic roles that every scene with him is important. As a series'regular after playing the mighty Tywin Lannister. I doubt wed want to see him do anything that is filler arcs. Unless it's a role written for him and is extraordinary. I'd rather see his witty lighthearted dry sense of humor in his interviews...

@Brian-wj7gb Год назад

I agree, Charles Dance looked too fierce and serious for Lord Mountbatten, who had a bit of a tired/easy going facial expression in my view. However, he would look perfect as Philip just as you say.

@mischlauren Год назад

Jonathan Pryce is a wonderful actor but him as Prince Philip is a miscast. He didn't become Philip at all in the same way the rest of the cast embodied their roles. Princess Diana was uncannily spot on. With Prince Charles, I can recognize the effort even if he doesnt look like him and I can see how he drew from the source material and made it better than the original. However with Pryce, he seems like his old roles - not Philip at all. Prince Philp had a charming wit, debonaire cadence that the previous 2 actors captured wonderfully well. Pryce still seems like the High Sparrow in a suit. I agree with one of the comments below that Charles Dance would have been a better Prince Philip had he not already played Lord Mountbatten in previous seasons

@Starburst858 Год назад

Charles Dance already played Lord Mountbatten

@mischlauren Год назад

@@Starburst858 yeah, I know. I was just thinking he would give more justice to portraying Prince Philip better than Pryce did

@victoriadesamotracia Год назад

Agree that Pryce is a miscast but disagree with the example of his role as the pope , he was more committed to that role than this one , even change his accent to do match somehow the Spanish accent of Francis I , here with Phillip I didn’t see the effort of capturing the mannerism or the way of speaking

@CallieMasters5000 Год назад

When you don't change anything about your look, voice or acting, it's hard to see him as anybody but the actor and not the character. Either of the previous Philips or an unknown actor would have been better.

@juicypineapple6995 Год назад

Absolutely agreed! He doesn't look, sound, move, or act like Philip at all. He might as well just be himself, or a different character. The way Tobias Menzies developed Philip further after Matt, adding something without contradicting the younger Philip was the right way to go. Then again, Season 5 has made many mistakes, if you ask me.

@BatmanHQYT 19 дней назад

Pryce is excellent and really looks the part, but I feel his take on the character doesn't feel in keeping with Smith and Menzies' versions.

@cristianmestre4027 8 дней назад

Pryce was different, not too shabby but definitely no Matt Smith or Tobias Menzies. Very interesting to see nonetheless, I just don’t think he had the flamboyance that they brought to The Crown. Still a very elegant portrayal and dutifully written 👏🏾

@ered203 Год назад

He was so good in The Two Popes.

@bpoleary1 8 месяцев назад

I think they should have cast Larry Lamb as Mountbatten in seasons 3 and 4, and then cast Charles Dance as Prince Philip in seasons 5 and 6.

@ZA-mg5nq Год назад

this season hasn’t been the best with casting or stories: the embellished history was what made it so great but that’s all lost in favour of the royal divorce and the draining fallout

I cannot and would never criticise his performance as an actor. He's superb. BUT....HORRIBLE choice for the late Duke of Edinburgh. Looks absolutely nothing like him. He'd be a fine Stan Laurel though.

While there's many comments about a miscast here, I think I will state that I think the biggest miscast of all in the entire show that's always overlooked is Jared Harris as George VI.

@SadieDLdn Год назад

He was very physically miscast. But I thought he portrayed the gentleness of George vi and how much her loved and was beloved by his family.

@michelepatsos6654 9 месяцев назад

What lovely, thoughtful man, and amazing actor. SADLY, Philip unfortunately isn't the great man he portrayed. if his sister didn't die in that plane crash, and if his COUSIN, Elizabeth didn't want to marry him, he absolutely would have been goose stepping in the Third Reich. He's not a sympathetic character.

@abhinandanbanerjee5471 Год назад

Short answer: He didn't!

@SadieDLdn Год назад

He’s obviously a good actor but didn’t even try to talk like or capture Prince Phillip. He also has none of his cheekiness. He just played this part like he plays everything else. That’s why the newer seasons of The Crown haven’t been as strong. They’ve cast established stars for too many of the parts whereas the first few series the actors were cast on how close they were to the character they were playing.

@ShiningFriendship87 Год назад

JP is an excellent actor, but he was a horrible miscast. No wit, charm or sarcasm like Tobias Menzies and Matt Smith had when they played Prince Philip.

@rdpcl Год назад

I still don't understand why didn't they cast James Cromwell as Prince Philip. Is it because he already played the part in the film The Queen?

@uchihaitachi5905 Год назад

Good actor - especially in Thrones - but not the right fit for Phillip imo.

@douglasdare175 Год назад

I think he gave a compelling and nuanced performance but I got no Phillip from him whatsoever. Apart from holding his hands behind his back I didn't hear or see any characterisation. All the actors always talk about not doing an impersonation but getting the essence of the person, well unfortunately I think Pryce took that too far and ended up doing nothing.

He seems to be too "old" to this role and lacks energy and looks like an old priest... The two younger actors in previous seasons seem to be better fit for their respective "Philip" roles.

@roosmarijn2634 Год назад

What do you mean by too old? Because Philip was in his 70s during the 1990s, so he should not be too energetic or youthfully played either

Jonathan Pryce is a great actor. However he was badly miss cast as Prince Philip. The vast majority of the cast didn't fit the characters they were supposed to be. This season was the worst there has been. Please don't bring it back.
