Emma Corrin and Josh O'Connor are best known for playing Prince Charles and Princess Diana during Season 4 of "The Crown," and the two had to work intensely to understand how to act like their complex subjects. In an interview with Deadline, Corrin explained how their previous friendship with O'Connor benefitted getting their parts. "I read with him a couple of times in auditions, and we have a friend in common, so we knew each other a bit," they said. "We got on really well instantly. We were naturally comfortable and trusting of each other, and he's a wonderful person to act with because he is an active listener, and he gives back."
"There's a moment where you realize, 'Oh god, this is just a marriage struggling, and people working on it,'" Corrin continued. "The emotions they're feeling — if not the particular details of their conversations — are the emotions we feel in relationships all the time. That's something that Josh and I really held onto; this is a marriage breaking down, and these are two people trying to make this thing either sink or swim."
