Introduction
If you’re a Princess Diaries fan, then you know that the third installment of the movie series is coming to Disney. The news was announced during a panel at D23 Expo 2019 in Anaheim, California. It’s been almost 20 years since we first met Mia Thermopolis and her best friend Lilly McTiernan in 1999’s The Princess Diaries. Since then, we’ve seen two more movies—with some cameos from actors like Anne Hathaway and Amanda Seyfried—but now it looks like there’ll be another one soon!
