AceShowbiz - The Princess Diaries fans have reason to stay hopeful as Anne Hathaway reveals that plans for a third installment are still underway. The Oscar-winning actress confirmed in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly that she is fully committed to reprising her role and that her team is "constantly working on" making The Princess Diaries 3 a reality.
Despite the excitement surrounding the unexpected release of The Devil Wears Prada 2, which has taken much of Hathaway’s focus recently, she emphasized that a return to Genovia remains a top priority. She explained that the sequel to The Devil Wears Prada "cropped up unexpectedly and took over the space," making it difficult to concentrate on both projects simultaneously.
However, Hathaway is "100%" dedicated to revisiting her beloved character in the royal comedy series. Fans of The Princess Diaries should remain optimistic, as efforts to bring back the franchise have not stalled but are actively progressing behind the scenes. The actress’s enthusiasm signals that the possibility of seeing a new chapter on the big screen is closer than ever.
While no official release date or production details have been announced, Anne Hathaway’s comments confirm that the project is far from abandoned. The success of recent sequels like The Devil Wears Prada 2 may even pave the way for renewed momentum in continuing the story of Princess Mia Thermopolis.
