Jamie, you absolutely must ask your friend if you can contact Julie some way!! I’ve never met or spoken to her directly, but I know she is always appreciate of and grateful for her fans. Let us know what happens!
In Julie-news, she was supposed to engage in another leg of her speaking tour this summer and this spring she was to appear at the TCM Film Festival and receive AFI’s Lifetime Achievement Award— but all those events have been cancelled or postponed. This week, she’s appeared on several talk shows from her home to promote her new podcast “Julie’s Library” which debuts tomorrow!
EDIT: The first episode, “Marilyn’s Monster,” is out now and it is just as lovely as you’d expect:

EDIT: About an hour into the new Happy Days of Garry Marshall special, there is some wonderful, never before seen BTS footage of The Princess Diaries and The Princess Diaries II. A particular highlight is a small montage of bloopers with Julie Andrews swearing and flubbing lines, juxtaposed with new interview footage where she denies the swearing ever happened!
EDIT: Julie Andrews will executive produce remake of late husband’s movie “10”

In 2014 Julie signed on to executive produce an animated movie based on the Pink Panther character introduced in her husband’s films, but nothing seems to have ever come from that.
