The fashion world is buzzing again—”The Devil Wears Prada 2″ is officially happening, nearly 20 years after the original film became a cultural classic. With filming set to begin in July 2025 and a release date locked in for May 1, 2026, fans are eagerly awaiting their return to the high-stakes world of fashion, ambition, and unforgettable one-liners.
“The Devil Wears Prada 2” Cast
The original cast is reuniting, with Meryl Streep back as the icy and iconic Miranda Priestly, Emily Blunt returning as the sharp-tongued Emily Charlton, Anne Hathaway expected to reprise her role as Andy Sachs, and Stanley Tucci returning as the ever-charming Nigel. Behind the camera, the original team is also back—director David Frankel, producer Wendy Finerman, and screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna—promising the same magic and bite that made the first film such a hit.
While plot details are still under wraps, we know the story will reflect the changing fashion industry. Miranda is now grappling with a world dominated by digital media and a struggling print magazine, while Emily has risen through the ranks to become a fashion executive, possibly helping Miranda when she needs it most. Andy, now living in Paris and writing for a top French magazine, is set for a new chapter that could bring her face-to-face with her past.
Emily Blunt Shares Her Thoughts On “The Devil Wears Prada 2”
That’s not the only update. During a June 10 interview with Entertainment Tonight, Emily Blunt addressed recent buzz about her character, Emily Charlton, now being a high-powered executive who may go head-to-head with Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) in the sequel.
“Why are Meryl and I so mean to each other in every movie we do?” she joked. “We always have beef with each other. I don’t know what it is. Let’s hope we remedy it. I’m not sure.”
While the film is still in its early stages, Blunt has remained tight-lipped about the plot. Speaking to E! News at the American Institute for Stuttering’s 19th Annual Gala, she said, “I can’t really tell you anything.”
Still, she didn’t hide her enthusiasm, adding, “We’re excited, very excited.”
The sequel will once again spotlight high fashion, but this time with a fresh, modern lens. Expect bold new looks, nods to sustainability and diversity, and maybe even real-world designer cameos. With fashion evolving rapidly, the film has a chance to blend iconic style with relevant commentary—and fans are here for it.
Anticipation is already high, with social media buzzing over the cast reunion and endless speculation about plot twists and character arcs. For longtime fans, it’s a nostalgic return to a world they love; for new audiences, it’s a chance to fall into the drama for the first time. The pressure is on to live up to the original—but with this cast and crew, “The Devil Wears Prada 2” is shaping up to be a must-watch moment in 2026.
