The Princess Diaries 3 Is Taking So Long Because Disney Is 'Working So Hard to Get It Right,' Anne Hathaway Says | D23 2026
Anne Hathaway took the stage at D23 to confirm that work on The Princess Diaries 3 is moving steadily ahead.
At the D23 2026 convention, Anne Hathaway spoke about the progress of The Princess Diaries 3. The long-awaited sequel has been in development for several years, but Hathaway confirmed that the team is working diligently to ensure the film lives up to expectations. She emphasized the importance of the Princess Diaries franchise in Disney's legacy of catering to family audiences.
Hathaway noted that the lengthy wait has been particularly challenging for fans, though she appreciated their patience. The absence of Julie Andrews, who previously confirmed she wouldn't return for the new film, adds an additional layer of uncertainty to the project.
