The Devil Wears Prada Is Back: What We Know About the Long-Awaited Sequel
Nearly two decades after Miranda Priestly first demanded her coffee and made audiences everywhere fear the sound of a ringing phone, The Devil Wears Prada is returning to the big screen — and the fashion world is buzzing.
The highly anticipated sequel to the 2006 cult classic is officially in development, with Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway both confirmed to reprise their iconic roles as the formidable Runway magazine editor Miranda Priestly and her once-frazzled assistant Andy Sachs. The original film, based on Lauren Weisberger's bestselling novel, grossed over $326 million worldwide and became a defining pop culture moment for an entire generation.
Original screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna is returning to pen the sequel, with the story set to pick up in the modern media landscape — a world where print magazines have been upended by digital platforms, influencer culture, and social media. Insiders suggest the new film will explore how Miranda Priestly has navigated — or refused to navigate — a rapidly changing industry, while Andy has built a career of her own.
Emily Blunt, who played the sharp-tongued first assistant Emily Charlton in the original, is also expected to return, though details about her role remain under wraps.
For fans who grew up quoting "That's all" and debating the cerulean sweater speech, the sequel promises to deliver the same razor-sharp wit and glamorous tension that made the original a timeless classic.
No official release date has been announced, but production is expected to begin in the coming months. Stay tuned for more updates as they unfold.
