Princess Diaries 3: Dad's Fate Revealed!

The beloved "Princess Diaries" franchise is gearing up for a third installment, with author Meg Cabot confirming that multiple scripts have been written and are considered "amazing." The production is currently "castle shopping" to find the perfect location for the fictional country of Genovia, with Monaco being a suggested possibility. This exciting development follows the confirmation of a third movie by star Anne Hathaway.

A notable plot point from the first film, released in 2001, involved the decision to kill off Mia Thermopolis's father. This creative choice was made by Disney to allow for more substantial screen time for Julie Andrews, who portrayed Queen Clarisse. Author Meg Cabot revealed that she consented to the change, humorously stating it was acceptable as it meant more role for the iconic Andrews.

While fans are eager for the return of the original cast, including Anne Hathaway, it remains uncertain whether 90-year-old Julie Andrews will be able to participate in "Princess Diaries 3." Andrews reprised her role in the 2004 sequel, "The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement." Cabot expressed excitement for the potential return of all actors, contingent on their schedules, and mentioned that the latest script is her favorite.
