Directed by Adele Lim, known for her successful work on Crazy Rich Asians, the third installment aims to celebrate themes of female empowerment and mentorship. Lim expressed her enthusiasm for the project, stating, “As a diehard 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.”

The screenplay is being crafted by Flora Greeson, who previously worked on The High Note, though specific plot details remain shrouded in mystery.

Hathaway’s return as Queen Mia Thermopolis is confirmed, but fans are left wondering about the involvement of other cherished characters.

Julie Andrews, who portrayed Queen Clarisse, has expressed uncertainty regarding her participation, noting that while discussions have occurred, nothing is finalized. However, both Hathaway and Andrews have consistently conveyed their desire to see this project come to fruition.

As production gears up for a potential 2025 filming schedule, speculation about the storyline is rampant. Some theories suggest that Princess Diaries 3 may explore Mia’s family life and legacy as a mother, possibly introducing her children into the royal narrative. This would align with contemporary storytelling trends that focus on generational themes and familial bonds.

Former cast members like Chris Pine and Mandy Moore have expressed interest in returning if given the chance. Pine’s character, Nicholas Devereaux, was a fan favorite in the second film, and Moore’s Lilly Moscovitz was Mia’s best friend throughout her journey. Their potential return could add depth and nostalgia to the sequel.
