Over its 6 season run, The Crown [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-crown/]has
become one of the most-watched shows on Netflix. While fans are nowhere close to
being ready to say goodbye, the show seems to be going out with a bang. Before
the second part of the series’ final season releases, the viewers have been
graced with a piece of massive news and the stars are likely to bid adieu to the
show with a win. 

With the Golden Globe nominations coming out

more than just one well-deserving actor from the show ended up being nominated.


THE CROWN’S DOMINIC WEST GETS NOMINATED FOR A GOLDEN GLOBE

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), it was revealed that Dominic West, the
charming actor who stopped hearts as King Charles III in the series, has been
nominated for a Golden Globe. This is his third nomination overall. However, it
is his first nomination while being a part of the Royal family’s story. He has
been nominated for Best Television Male Actor in a Drama Series.

So far, he has been nominated before for his roles in The Affair and The Hour.
Given the actor’s brilliant performance in the show, it comes as no surprise
that he has been nominated for the third time. However, while his acting might
be on point, the 54-year-old was not always too certain about his decision to
take on the role of the senior royal family member.

Although the world seems to have thought he did an outstanding job as King
Charles in The Crown, West once had to overcome “imposter syndrome” to take over
the role. 


DOMINIC WEST’S KING CHARLES DOUBTS

Until the fifth season of The Crown, the role of King Charles was played by
another amazing actor, Josh O’Connor. While he auditioned, got the role, and
began getting into character, Dominic West did not believe he was the right fit
for it. Thankfully, he decided otherwise or he might have missed out on the
possibility of winning a Golden Globe. 



Although he may have initially been uncertain about playing the King of England,
he changed his mind when he realized that he liked the things that he said.
Ultimately, his liking of the character and the script for The Crown were the
things that ended up drawing him to play the character.
