by

As a dedicated follower of the magical world of Mia Thermopolis and Genovia, hearing the news about The Princess Diaries 3 brings me back to my childhood, filled with dreams of becoming a princess myself! The excitement bubbling within me is reminiscent of the days I spent rewinding the VHS tape of the first movie, eagerly awaiting the enchanting scenes.

The beloved princess of Genovia is set to return! Indeed, it’s true. Actress Anne Hathaway, aged 41, recently announced on Instagram that a third installment of “The Princess Diaries” is officially being developed.

Shortly following Adele Lim, the director of the upcoming third installment, announcing The Princess Diaries 3 to Variety, this exciting update swept across the web, leaving fans exhilarated. Subsequently, Anne Hathaway shared her thoughts about it via her social platforms.

In the Instagram video, Hathaway shows her enthusiasm by raising one finger at a time while relaxing. Later in the clip, Mia Thermopolis makes an unexpected discovery that she’s actually the Princess of Genovia and is astonished, responding with “Can you believe it?” As the second figure appears, Hathaway again raises two fingers. Finally, Julie Andrews, who portrays Hathaway’s on-screen grandmother, reacts similarly with surprise.

At the close of the video, Hathaway raises three fingers and says “shut up” twice, followed by another countdown. The soundtrack includes the song “Miracles Happens (When You Believe)” by Myra, a tune that was previously featured in the original film.

In Hathaway’s caption, her unending joy expanded to include her affection for Genovia, a place where she gleefully greeted the team and relished revisiting a fairy tale setting. Her admirers, including Kelly Clarkson, expressed their approval, with Clarkson stating she was already ‘eagerly anticipating’ and content.

The project is assuredly in capable hands, given that Adele Lim, who has previously directed Joy Ride and Crazy Rich Asians, will be at the helm. Her profound affection for the earlier Princess Diaries films is evident, and she eagerly anticipates the upcoming franchise installment, which delves into themes of women’s joy and empowerment.

In an interview with Variety, Lim shared his enthusiasm, saying, “Being a devoted admirer of the initial Princess Diaries, I can hardly contain my excitement about contributing to the creation of the third installment in this cherished series.

Back in 2001, I was completely captivated when the enchanting tale of “The Princess Diaries” graced our screens for the very first time. And then, in 2004, the sequel, “The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement,” swept me off my feet once more! These unforgettable cinematic experiences are forever etched in my heart as timeless favorites.

Back in January 2023, Hathaway expressed to People that the prospect of a third movie was incredibly thrilling for her. However, she also emphasized that the journey would be lengthy and laborious each time around.

Both films, The Princess Diaries and The Princess Diaries 2 are currently streamable on Disney+.
