Adele Lim, the director of the upcoming Princess Diaries 3, shared updates on the film during a recent appearance. She confirmed that Anne Hathaway will return as Mia Thermopolis, now as queen of Genovia. Lim emphasized creating a story that appeals to longtime fans who have grown up with the franchise.
Speaking at the Gold Gala on Saturday, Lim said the project is progressing well. She stressed the importance of honoring the beloved series while evolving the narrative to focus on a woman in her full power rather than a young princess. Motherhood has shaped this perspective, Lim noted, as many original fans are now parents themselves.
