Abstract

The Netflix’s serial “The Crown”, which is focused on members of the British royal family, has become one of the most popular series about powerful agents. The novelty of the series lies in another representation of the British royal family – now they are not a media brand, but an ordinary family, endowed with power. Traditional media narratives about both the magic and the futility of the monarchy are problematized by the showrunners of the series. The conflict between “human” and “powerful” happens throughout the narrative of “The Crown”. Through analysis of several episodes of the series, the article reflects the strategies of representing the modern British royal family as powerful agents and, at the same time, existential subjects.
