Sources said the film is a continuation of the first two movies, which starred Anne Hathaway as Mia Thermopolis, a teenager who learns she is the heir to the fictional kingdom of Genovia.
Deadline said Debra Martin Chase will produce The Princess Diaries 3, with Melissa K. Stack to serve as executive producer.
It is unclear whether Hathaway will reprise her role of Mia, according to Variety.
The actress expressed interest in a third movie in October, telling Entertainment Tonight, "I would more than entertain it, I'm pulling for it. If there's any way to get Julie Andrews involved, I think we would make it work."
The Princess Diaries is based on the Meg Cabot book series of the same name. The first film, The Princess Diaries, was released in 2001, while the second, The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, was released in 2004.
