Fans devastated by Princess Diaries 3 update from adored leading cast member --[Reported by Umva mag]

The Princess Diaries 3 has been confirmed, with Anne Hathaway set to return to the beloved franchise – but one cast member hasn’t heard a thing about the new movie.

In an interview on Today with Hoda and Jenna, Chris Pine, 44, appeared to discuss his new children’s book.

While the actor was on the couch he was asked about the possibility that he might be returning to the beloved franchise.

‘I don’t know anything,’ the actor revealed.

You don’t know anything? You have a major role in it,’ said Jenna.

Hoda then declared that he is Princess Diaries, to which he jokingly replied: ‘That’s very sweet. Call Disney. Call [Disney CEO] Bob Iger.’

Chris then revealed that sadly no one has spoken to him just yet about the project: ‘The answer is honestly I don’t know anything about it. I think it’s fantastic.’

The hosts then read out some tweets from fans who were desperate to see Chris reprise his role.

‘If they have to drag Chris Pine by his man bun & Boost Mobile flip phone to the set of Princess Diaries SO BE IT, read one of the tweets from Alamanecer that was read out by the presenters.

Chris laughed at the tweet and replied, ‘My man bun? My man bun is gone!’ He revealed he had to cut it off after his publicist said he looked like ‘Rachel from Friends’ with long hair.

Fans are insistent that Chris returns to the franchise, with some even saying that Chris not being in the new film would be a ‘crime’.

‘Making a Princess Diaries 3 and not informing Chris pine about it is such a hate crime to society,’ said Mustbeloveerle.

‘There is literally nothing Chris pine could be doing right now that matters more than Princess Diaries 3 I’m serious.’ said Beezkneezs.

On October 5, Anne Hathaway, 41, confirmed that the rumours were true that a Princess Diaries 3 was in the works and she’d be reprising her role as Mia Thermopolis.

‘Miracles happen ✨???? Back to Genovia with @adeleblim @disney @somewherepictures. The fairy tale continues ❤️‍????,’ read the caption of her post on social media.

it has been confirmed that Adele Lim, who wrote Crazy Rich Asians and directed Joy Ride, will be directing the film.

Speaking to Deadline, Lim said: ‘As a diehard fan of the original Princess Diaries, I’m beyond excited to be a part of bringing the third iteration of this beloved franchise to life. 

‘We look forward to celebrating its core tenants of female power, joy and mentorship with audiences worldwide.’

Julie Andrews has previously said that she wouldn’t know how her character, Queen Clarice, might fit into a sequel.

‘I think we know that it’s probably not going to be possible,’ Julie told Access Hollywood in 2023.

‘It was talked about very shortly after [the second sequel] came out, but it’s now how many years since then? And I am that much older and Annie the princess, or queen, is so much older. And I am not sure where it would float or run.’

But nothing has been confirmed yet – so fans can still keep their fingers crossed to see the icon return to one of her most beloved roles.
