Prince Charming gets fresh spin as Disney teams up with Paul King
Disney is set to reimagine Prince Charming in a new film directed by Paul King, known for his work on the “Paddington” series and “Wonka”.
Beautiful Hollywood star Anne Hathaway says much like her fans she is also “frustrated” and waiting for the third part of the The Princess Diaries franchise.
Disney had confirmed in November that another chapter of The Princess Diaries saga was in the process with Aadrita Mukerji geared to write. Debra Martin Chase was also reportedly returning to produce the new film.
The film has been in progress for years and Hathaway believes delivering an inspiring third part is a process that requires “patience”.

“We feel the exact same, and I know it’s probably very frustrating… It’s a process that requires patience, and so everybody should consider themselves a part of the movie business now because this is how long it actually takes to make things,” she told People magazine.
Hathaway has not yet signed for the new film officially but has expressed interest in being part of the upcoming instalment.
The Princess Diaries was released in 2001 with Garry Marshall directing Julie Andrews and Hathway. The comedy was based on the popular Meg Cabot novel series with Mia Thermopolis (Hathaway) at the centre of the story. Mia is a teenager from San Francisco who discovers that she is the heir apparent to the throne of Genovia.
