The Oscar winner took a look at some of her most famous movie roles in a video for 'Vanity Fair'—and got emotional watching scenes from the film that put her on the map.

Before she was an Oscar-winning actress, she was just Mia Thermopolis (well, turned princess), and in a new video with Vanity Fair, Anne Hathaway emotionally relived "the film that changed [her] life."

In 2001, Hathaway rocketed to fame when she starred alongside Julie Andrews and Garry Marshall as awkward teen-turned-heir to the throne of Genovia in The Princess Diaries.


As part of her cover story for the April issue of Vanity Fair, the actor rewatched clips from some of her classics, such as The Devil Wears Prada, Les Mis and The Dark Knight Rises.

But when scenes from The Princess Diaries began to play, Hathaway became a bit emotional.

Pausing the clip, she commented on how "radiant" Julie Andrews looked and then shared:

“I was 17 years old when we made this, and so I hadn't met as many people yet in my life.”
“So I knew Garry Marshall was really special and I knew Julie Andrews was really special. But now sitting here watching this from this point of view, they're two of the most magical people I have ever met.”

She continued:

"This was the film that changed my life. Like, it's so weird to watch it."

The actor revealed it had been "maybe 20 years" since she had seen the movie, and while fighting tears, she continued:

"I'm a bit speechless with this one."
"Actually, it's very emotional to see it."

Watching Hathaway get emotional reliving her Princess Diaries moment had viewers in tears, as well.






Many also appreciated that Hathaway recognized that the film launched her lengthy and successful career, especially considering how some stars have recently bashed the films that got them their start in Hollywood.




In the end, Hathaway shared she is "so proud" she was able to be a part of the film.

"I'm really glad that I'm that girl right there."

You can watch Hathaway react to some of her other famous scenes below.

'Based On A True Story' Movies That Aren't True At All

The entertainment industry has long been criticized for their creative license when it comes to retelling history or anything "based on a true story."

Going back to the silent film era and D.W. Griffith's ridiculously inaccurate White supremacist propaganda Birth Of A Nation to Mel Gibson's Braveheart to Disney's Pocahontas, some films go way beyond creative license and careen into total malarkey.

Musk's AI Chatbot Throws Republicans Under The Bus After Being Asked About Economy

Grok, billionaire Elon Musk's very own chatbot, threw Republicans under the bus after software engineer Alex Coke asked it if Democrats or Republicans have been better for the economy in the past 30 years, only for it to answer that yes, in fact, Democrats are the winners when it comes to economic policy.

Economic policy is certainly on everyone's minds these days. A new CNN poll conducted by SSRS shows that Americans are not pleased with President Donald Trump’s management of the economy, leaving him with unfavorable ratings on what is considered the nation’s most important issue.

CNN Airs Brutal Reminder Of Trump's Previous Economic Predictions—And They Did Not Age Well

CNN came with the receipts, airing a supercut of clips from 2020 and 2024 of President Donald Trump making hilariously wrong economic predictions—a damning reel of evidence as financial markets decline and investor concerns grow over Trump’s trade policies.

In fact, Trump’s escalating trade war pushed the S&P 500 more than 10% below its record high set just last month. A drop of this size is significant enough that professional investors call it a “correction,” and the S&P 500’s 1.4% decline on Thursday marked its first since 2023.
