Pretty Princess, the third film will be made (finally)

Give me a tiara, an invented kingdom of the Old Continent and a love story and I will move the world for you? Something like that. One of the most popular formulas, on TV as in the cinema, provides for a royal cocktail with a nice happy ending (Patrick Dempsey and Amy Adams know something about it, returning 15 years later in the sequel to As if by magic right now on Disney+). That is why by great, indeed very great demand, comes the project of the third film of the saga Pretty Princessat least according to the rumors of The Hollywood Reporter.

Whoever missed it can obviously catch up on Disney+, but this time it’s not the usual teen drama with crowned heads. This idea it’s turned the careers of quite a few peopleby screenwriter Shonda Rhimes (yes, she, the creator of Grey’s Anatomy, Bridgerton and a thousand other projects in between, one of the most powerful producers in the world today) to the then immature Anne Hathaway (who would have thought that with a desperate cry she Les Miserables would the ex starlet of Mickey’s house win the Oscar?), passing through Sandra Oh, some time later hired right into the lanes of the medical drama as best friend (or rather as “the person”) of Meredith, Cristina Yang. The only one who didn’t need any confirmation or legitimation was the magnificent Julie “Mary PoppinsAndrewsas Queen Clarisse of the kingdom of Genovia.

It is precisely his character that triggers the series of events that brings his niece Mia (Anne Hathaway) to the throne, daughter of his late heir to the throne and totally unaware of the blue blood in her veins. There was directing the true genius of romantic comedies, Garry Marshallwho directed cult hits such as pretty woman in addition to having given life to real TV phenomena, such as Happy Days And Mork & Mindy.

But let’s go back to the production of Princess Diaries 3 (this is the original title): the screenplay was entrusted to Aadrita Mukerji (Supergirl, Reacher)but although Anne Hathaway has always been grateful in words for this little miracle that launched her career, it is not clear whether or not she has the desire and the time to return to wearing the scepter.

The actress, soon to be in the cinema with Armageddon Timepresented at Cannes Film Festival and then re-proposed in the Alice nella Città section during the Rome Film Festival, had stated that the chances of participation would increase if Julie Andrews agreed to return. On this front, however, all is silent.

The gorgeous 87-year-old has recently devoted herself mainly to dubbing, as the voice of Gru’s mother in Minions 2 and as mysterious Lady Whistledown in Bridgerton (where he reunites with Shonda Rhimes, almost closing a circle). If one were to rely on his grace and generosity, one would have no doubts about his presence, while it is not so obvious that other colleagues – novices at the time of the movies, a good 21 years ago – such as Chris Pine and Mandy Moore go back to their origins . Fans, of course, hope so.
