Drottningen adlar Pryce – innan han blir prins Philip

Skådespelaren Jonathan Pryce har adlats av den brittiska drottningen Elizabeth II, rapporterar BBC.

Pryce har en 50-årig karriär som skådespelare bakom sig. Förra året blev han Oscarsnominerad för rollen som den blivande påve Franciskus. Härnäst kommer han att spela drottningens nyligen avlidne make prins Philip i de två avslutande säsongerna av Netflix-serien ”The Crown”.

– Att Storbritannien fortsätter att hedra dem som arbetar med kultur är ett erkännande av det stora bidrag som konstnärer gör till hur vi lever våra liv, säger Pryce i ett uttalande.
