You might be thinking, âShut up!â but itâs officially true: the âPrincess Diariesâ franchise is finally growing.
Anne Hathaway posted a fun video clip to her on Friday, where she was seen lounging outdoors before she made the number one with her hand. The video then cut to a younger Hathaway in the now classic 2001 film âThe Princess Diaries,â in which she was seen uttering the iconic line, âA princess?! Shut up!â
After the Oscar-winner held two fingers up, the clip cut to her costar Julie Andrews, repeating the adage âShut upâ from their sequel âThe Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagementâ from 2004.
Then, with a smile, Hathaway held up three fingers, and said âShut upâ herself. After laughing and blowing a kiss to the camera, she shared a screenshot of a news report announcing that the âThe Princess Diaries 3â is currently in the works at Disney, with âJoyrideâ director Adele Lim attached.
âMiracles happen,â Hathaway wrote in the caption, before adding âBack to Genoviaâ in a nod to the fictional kingdom from the film series. She ended her message with, âThe fairy tale continuesâ and a flaming heart emoji.
âThe Princess Diariesâ tells the tale of Mia Thermopolis, played by Hathaway, an unsuspecting teen who discovers she is the heir apparent to a royal throne. Andrews portrayed Queen Clarice Renaldi in the films, Miaâs estranged grandmother and ruler of Genovia.
While a third entry in the beloved millennial franchise â a full 20 years after the last film â is gleeful news, it isnât the only highly anticipated sequel Hathaway is involved in.
According to IMDb, âThe Devil Wears Prada 2â in pre-production with Hathaway, Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci all listed to as cast members.
The plot for that sequel will apparently follow Streepâs ruthless magazine editor Miranda Priestly as struggles against her former assistant and now-rival executive Emily Charlton (Blunt), âas they compete for advertising revenue amidst declining print media while Miranda nears retirement.â
