The wait is over! Fans of the beloved 'Princess Diaries' series rejoice and the excitement is palpable as Anne Hathaway teases fans on social media and testifies to her return.

AceShowbiz - The enchanted world of Genovia is poised to return to our screens, with Anne Hathaway reprising her iconic role as Princess Mia Thermopolis for "Princess Diaries 3". The actress took to Instagram to share her excitement, posting a nostalgic clip from the first movie where her character learns of her royal heritage.

Hathaway captioned it with, "Miracles happen. Back to Genovia with @adeleblim @disney @somewherepictures. The fairy tale continues," setting the stage for a highly anticipated return.

Filmmaker Adele Lim, known for her work on the comedy "Joy Ride" and co-writing the screenplay for "Crazy Rich Asians", has been selected to direct the new film.

Lim expressed her elation to The Hollywood Reporter, stating, "As a die-hard fan of the original Princess Diaries, I'm beyond excited to be a part of bringing the third iteration of this beloved franchise to life. We look forward to celebrating its core tenants of female power, joy, and mentorship with audiences worldwide."

While it is unofficial whether Julie Andrews will reprise her role as Mia's grandmother, the former queen of Genovia, fans are hopeful. The beloved star had previously expressed interest in the series' continuation earlier this year but has not confirmed her participation in the upcoming film.

The original "Princess Diaries", directed by the late Garry Marshall, introduced audiences to a San Francisco teen, Mia, who discovers she is the heir apparent to the small European principality of Genovia. Guided by her regal grandmother, Mia undergoes princess lessons, leading to humorous and heartwarming moments. The film's success was followed by a sequel in 2004, where Mia prepared to take the throne while navigating new challenges and love interests.

With a blend of returning cast favorites and fresh faces, the third installment promises to capture the essence of the story's magic and charm. Sandra Oh, who played the memorable Vice Principal Gupta, expressed her eagerness to join the project, telling Entertainment Weekly, "I am ready for the Queen. Call me! I'm dying to see how Gupta has moved up in the world."
