Get ready, because Miranda Priestly is making a comeback. Rumours of a sequel to the iconic 2005 film “The Devil Wears Prada” have been swirling, focusing on the challenges that the print media industry faces today. Meryl Streep is set to reprise her role as the fierce editor-in-chief inspired by Anna Wintour. The long-awaited sequel has been confirmed by Disney’s 20th Century Studios, with a teaser video shared on Instagram to get fans excited.
The original film, based on Lauren Weisberger’s novel, follows Anne Hathaway’s character, Andrea “Andy” Sachs, as she navigates the high-fashion world working as Miranda’s assistant. It was a huge success, grossing over $326 million worldwide and earning critical acclaim.
The cast for “The Devil Wears Prada 2” includes returning stars like Streep, Emily Blunt, Hathaway, and Stanley Tucci. Other familiar faces from the original film will also be making a return, while some characters, like Adrian Grenier’s Nate, will not be appearing in the sequel.
New additions to the cast include Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, Pauline Chalamet, Conrad Ricamora, Helen J. Shen, and Caleb Hearon. The plot of the sequel will revolve around Miranda’s struggles in the changing landscape of print media, as she seeks help from her former assistant Emily, who is now a powerful executive in the fashion industry.
Details about Andy and Nigel’s roles in the story are still under wraps, creating anticipation among fans. The film is rumoured to be aiming for a release in May 2026, just before the Met Gala, offering a clever tie-in with the fashion world.
