Differences between the film and novel
There are many major differences between the film and novel. While they essentially follow the same plot, there were additional sequences written for the film to produce more drama. Mia is portrayed as a very awkward adolescent, and while in the film she is more comfortable with herself after the makeover, in the book she becomes more uneasy. Other major differences include the following:
In the novel Mia's grandmother, Clarisse Renaldi, is not the Queen of Genovia, but instead the dowager princess. She is less considerate of Mia's feelings and is somewhat clueless about the lives of non-royal people. She frequently dresses in purple to emphasize her social status and speaks French most of the time. Clarisse has few heartfelt moments.
In the novel Mia's father, Philippe Renaldi, is not dead. Instead he is a survivor of testicular cancer and is physically incapable of producing another heir. Because Mia is his only daughter, this forces her to take the Genovian throne.
While the film introduced Joe, the novel excludes his character. Mia has a bodyguard named Lars, who bears some distinction and similarity to Joe. Clarisse and Lars do not hint a romantic relationship like Clarisse and Joe do in the film.
In the novel Lana does not have friends named Ana and Fontana and Lilly does not have a friend named Jeremiah. Mia has many other friends than Lilly and Michael, including Boris Pelkowski, Ling Su Wong, Shameeka Taylor, and Tina Hakim Baba (whom she befriends during a fight with Lilly).
Other small changes include Lilly's cable show, which is titled Lilly Tells It like It Is in the novel and Shut Up and Listen in the film. Mia's teacher who dates her mother Helen is not Mr. O'Connell and instead Mr. Gianini, who has a much larger role in the novel.
Josh and Lana's surnames are different in the film. Originally they were Richter and Weinberger respectively, and not Bryant and Thomas. Although it was never disclosed why Josh's surname was changed, Garry Marshall said that "Thermopolis" and "Thomas" are close together alphabetically, which indicates that Mia and Lana would sit near each other in their classes.
In the novel, Mia Thermopolis lives in an apartment; in the movie, she lives in a house. Her neighbor in the novel is Ronnie, not Mr. Robatussen.
In the book Mia ruins Lana's outfit with ice-cream in defence of Tina Hakim Baba (who is not mentioned in the movie), not Jeramiah (who is not even in the book).
Mia does not tell Lilly that she is a princess in the book. And in the book Mia gets into a huge fight with Lilly when Lilly finds out that she is a princess, in the movie their bond gets stronger.
Mia does not have a car in the book.
In the book Mia's paternal grandmother does not go out for fun with Mia.
In the novel, Clarisse Renaldo lives in the suite of the La Plaza Hotel while visiting New York. In the movie, she lives in a large house. In the novel, Grandmere (Clarisse Renaldo) owns a toy poodle named Rommel.
In the novel, Mia goes to Albert Einstein High School. The name in the movie is changed to Garden Grove High School.
In the novel, Josh makes out with Mia on the doorstep to Albert Einstein High School, since they were on their way to a school dance. In the movie, they were attending a beach party instead of a dance, and Josh kissed Mia outside the supplies cabin.
In the novel, Michael Moscovitz did not work at a car repair shop. He was musically gifted, however.
Fat Louie is ginger in the book, not black and white as in the movie.
According to the novel Mia does not move to Genovia in the end.
In the book Mia calls her paternal grandmother 'Grandmere' and not Grandma.
In the book Mia's maternal Grandmother is not dead.
In the novel, it was Grandmere who publicized Mia's royal heritage, not Paolo.
There was no Genovian Independence Day Ball in the novel.
In the movie, Mia was turning 16 and had a learner's permit in driving. In the series, Mia did not turn 16 until book seven and a half: Sweet Sixteen Princess. She was 14 in books one, two, three, and four. She turned 15 in book five, and was 15 until book seven and a half. In the series, she is currently 16 and in her junior year of high school.
In the book, Mia lives in New York, not San Francisco like in the film.
