Do you mean using actual an news reel?

Actors dressed as the King and Queen of England do not violate
any copyright. Recreating a historically accurate scene is not a
violation of copyright. Copyright covers material in a fixed format
and means you cannot copy it.

You know, I think only Germany has laws about not allowing certain historical images, reenactments etc to be portrayed.. but what do I know..

I think you're in the clear, man. It sounds like an ambitious scene.
