Anne Hathaway is ready to wear her crown again as Queen Mia of Genovia.
The Oscar-winning actress has given a major update regarding Princess diaries 3 in a new interview with Weekly entertainmentconfirming that a new installment is actively underway 22 years later Princess diaries 2.
“100 percent, we’re constantly working on it,” she said, revealing that development briefly took a back seat during filming The Devil Wears Prada 2 — another one of Hathaway’s long-awaited sequels, which hits theaters on May 1.
“[Devil Wears Prada 2] popped up out of the blue and took over,” Hathaway explained, adding that it became impossible to focus on both projects at once. But now the plan is clearer.
“The intention is to create Princess diaries hopefully next,” she declared, noting that the film “hasn’t been greenlit or confirmed yet.”
Still, the demand is undeniable. But Hathaway acknowledged that “everybody wants it,” she and her TDWP costar Meryl Streep emphasized that “you have to wait for the right script.”
The original Princess diaries released in 2001, introduces Mia Thermopolis, an ordinary teenager who discovers that she is the heir to a kingdom – a role that made Hathaway a household name.
Looking back at the film, Hathaway tearfully recounted People magazine, “This is the role that changed my life. And I’m standing with Julie Andrews, which is just crazy.”
