What are fans super excited about? It appears the movie is taking on more than one key element that looks to create more excitement. What was really exciting was the confirmation that Hathaway is going to be playing more than just a "leading" role in the new movie, and she is going to be producing!

So as this gets to play out. It looks like she will also have a huge say in this incredible project.

Andrews was concerned about getting involved due to Gary Marshall.

That has to do with the long, long, wait for a third installment, and as you know that filmmaker passed away in 2016! And it really was a huge loss! It certainly was something that may have thrown the movie into question. However, this may be one of the reasons why there's so much momentum now to get this new movie finished.

This project may help fans learn more! What really seems to stand out from what's happened over time, with a director chosen, the producer behind it all is Hathaway, she might be able to convince Andrews to jump back into the franchise. This also means there is a lot of care being put into this project! What made "The Princess Diaries" so compelling for the audiences is the story of Mia Thermopolis.
