Earlier this year, popular Netflix drama The Crown found its Princess Diana!

Emma Corrin was finally unveiled as the actress portraying the much-loved princess, after much speculation about who might be taking on the part.

Last week, as the TV show's fourth season begun production, we FINALLY got our first look at actors Josh O’Connor and Emma Corrin as they took on the roles of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

Now new photos have been released of the 23-year-old actress in character - and fans still can't get over Corrin's resemblance to the "People's Princess".

Spotted on location in Spain over the weekend, the two stars were seen recreating the royal couple's 1983 41 day visit to Australia - which was their first with baby Prince William, who was nine-months-old at the time.

Wearing a replica of Diana's fitted hot pink dress and matching fascinator, Corrin was pictured reenacting a meet-and-greet with excited Australian citizens.

And we have to admit, she does look strikingly similar to the mother-of-two.

Unfortunately, the scenes won't appear on our screens for a while yet though as season three is only set to premiere in November.

Peter Morgan, the creator behind the acclaimed Netflix series, says series four will show the young princess as she struggles to befriend her in-laws, The Queen and Prince Philip.

Corrin's previous roles include the film Misbehaviour, an episode of the 1960s-set detective drama Grantchester and as a series regular in Epix’s new Batman show Pennyworth.

The actress will be joining Olivia Coleman, who will star as the Queen, and Helena Bonham Carter who is to play Princess Margaret.
