She added: "But I think to work with [Hathaway] would be lovely again. And yeah, sure I'd be up for it. If a script comes in, let's wait for that."
Andrews also noted that the franchise's director, Garry Marshall, has passed away since completing the second "Princess Diaries" movie.

"He was really the nuts and bolts of it all," said Andrews.
Andrews played the grandmother to Hathaway's Mia in the franchise as she groomed her granddaughter to take over the throne of Genovia.

"There is a script for the third movie," she revealed. "I want to do it, Julie wants to do it, Debra Martin Chase, our producer, wants to do it. We all really want it to happen, it's just we don't want to do it unless it's perfect because we love it just as much as you guys love it."

However, a few months later, Andrews visited Cohen's show, where she was surprised to learn that a script for the film had been finished.
