A New Part of “The Devil Wears Prada” Is In The Works
The iconic world of “The Devil Wears Prada” is returning to the big screen. Bringing the icons: Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci. All of them are returning to their roles in “The Devil Wears Prada 2.”
Thus, the highly anticipated sequel has officially begun production, much to the excitement of fans. Joining the original cast is Kenneth Branagh, who will take on the role of Miranda Priestly’s husband. His addition to the star-studded cast adds a new layer of intrigue. Since the renowned editor-in-chief of Runway magazine faces an evolving world. So, the news was confirmed by Disney’s 20th Century Studios, which shared a tantalizing teaser on Instagram. The post featured two devilishly chic red pumps.
Hence, fans remember the original 2006 film, based on Lauren Weisberger’s bestselling 2004 novel. The story covered the life of Andy Sachs. She is a young woman who lands a coveted role as an assistant to the famously demanding Miranda Priestly. The book is a thinly veiled portrayal of Weisberger’s time as Anna Wintour’s assistant at Vogue. As with another highlight, Anna Wintour herself had lately declared she would be stepping down from her Vogue editor-in-chief post.
“The Devil Wears Prada” Second Part Details
Meanwhile, the story of “The Devil Wears Prada 2” remains under wraps. The early reports are telling us it would perhaps chart the trials of Miranda Priestly as she clings to relevance in the fast-changing world of magazine publishing. With the traditional form of publishing on a dying stage, Miranda is to square up with Emily Blunt’s character, who aspires to be a powerful executive herself. This rival controls the advertising dollar that Miranda wishes for from far away.
So, there is a problem, though; it is not clear how Andy Sachs, the character of Hathaway, will fit into the drama. At the conclusion of the first film, Andy left the Runway to pursue a new chapter in her career. She took a job at a newspaper, suggesting her role in the sequel may be pivotal, yet unknown.
Thus, David Frankel, who directed the original film, and Aline Brosh McKenna, the screenwriter, are both returning for the sequel. Producer Karen Rosenfelt is also back on board to bring this next chapter to life.
“The Devil Wears Prada” is slated for release in theaters on May 1, 2026, marking a highly anticipated return to the world of high fashion, power plays, and unforgettable characters. Fans of the first film will undoubtedly be eager to see what unfolds as these beloved stars reunite for another round of sharp dialogue and stylish moments.
