Here's Where The Princess Diaries 3 Production is Hunting For Castles: Is Anne Hathaway Returning?
The Post reported that a source close to the production of The Princess Diaries disclosed that the creative team had recently traveled to the Czech Republic to scout locations for filming. However, it was also revealed that there were no regular spots, but instead fortresses that would be featured in the film, calling it 'castle shopping'.
The Princess Diaries Film Series
The original, a 2001 film called The Princess Diaries, featured Anne Hathaway as Mia Thermopolis, the heir to the throne. Alongside her, Julie Andrews starred as Clarisse Renaldi, her grandmother and the Queen regnant. Other popular actors who were a part of the project included Mandy Moore, Heather Matarazzo, Sandra Oh, Héctor Elizondo, and more.
A sequel followed up in 2004, called The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, with the two leads reprising their roles.
Similarly, the third installment in the series, so far titled The Princess Diaries 3, was confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter in 2022, with Aadrita Mukerji being eyed for the writer's role. It is said to be a continuation of the originals, rather than a remake, much to the delight of fans who have been awaiting news for over two decades.
So far, it is not known whether Anne Hathaway will return to her role as the Princess of Genovia; however, she has already shown ample interest. With her unchanging looks, we think it may not be a far stretch to get her involved in depth, and Debra Martin Chase's own comeback to the series may just be the assurance we were all looking for.

Fahy said she was "100 per cent" surprised that she was nominated for her work on the show. "When I tell you that there was not even one conversation about it across the board with anybody on my team," she told host Seth Meyers. "My team was like, 'Oh my God!'," according to The Hollywood Reporter. This is weird that they're calling However, she didn't have time to celebrate, "I was on set, actually, and so we were filming something and so [my team] called and I was like, 'This is weird that they're calling.' And I answered, and they started screaming. And they were like, 'And action!' And I was like, 'Bye!' And I just hung the phone up." Fahy added that the way she learned about her nomination was "anticlimactic" and that the overall experience was "very unexpected," according to The Hollywood Reporter. The nod for 'Sirens' marks Fahy's second Emmy nomination after she was previously up for a supporting actress Emmy for her role in season two of The White Lotus.

"Day one, I had to sort of look [Moore] straight in the eye and call her a bitch. And I was like, 'Um, okay. Throwing me in the deep end.' I like your style," Fahy recalled, as per the outlet. She praised Moore and said, "Honestly, if she was a cult leader in real life, I would be in that cult." "I think I would be, too," Meyers added. "I know usually when you watch those shows, you're supposed to be like, 'I don't trust this cult leader.' And I'm kind of like, 'I might be down with most of this,'" as per the outlet. Meyers continued, "I feel like Meghann's the bad guy. I don't know why she's trying to bust up this cult. Her sister definitely has a better life now," according to The Hollywood Reporter.
