The iconic “The Devil Wears Prada” returns 20 years later with fresh energy, a star-studded cast and a storyline that will surprise more than one fan!
Production of the sequel – fashion comes full circle
Work on the film “The Devil Wears Prada 2” officially got underway in the summer of 2025 and is already generating enormous excitement. The premiere has been scheduled for May 1, 2026 – exactly 20 years after the debut of the first part, which became a global phenomenon and earned over $326 million at the box office. The cast will once again feature the stars of the original: Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly, Anne Hathaway as Andy Sachs and Emily Blunt as Emily Charlton.
The sequel's plot – Miranda's new challenges
According to official information, the sequel will focus on the character of Miranda Priestly and the challenges that the decline of print media brings for her. “Runway Magazine” – her fashion empire – is on the brink of bankruptcy due to the growing power of the internet and digital media. Miranda, known for her iron discipline and cool professionalism, will have to face her former assistant, Emily Charlton, who is now a powerful manager in the luxury industry and… a key rival.
- Anne Hathaway will return as Andy Sachs, although her role will be rather episodic – the main conflict revolves around Miranda and Emily.
- The new installment will also feature Stanley Tucci (as Nigel) and Kenneth Branagh (Miranda’s husband).
Creators and origins of the project
Behind the camera will once again stand David Frankel, director of the first “Devil Wears Prada”, and the screenplay, as before, is written by Aline Brosh McKenna, based on the novels by Lauren Weisberger. The production is overseen by Wendy Finerman. The return of this team guarantees that the style and sarcasm of the original will remain unchanged, while offering a fresh take on the world of fashion and digital media.
What awaits viewers – what to expect?
In a new reality, where knowledge and trends flow mainly from portals and TikTok, Miranda will have to learn to play by different rules – that is… she will be put to the test by her own “fashion descendants”. Style fans can look forward to:
- Spectacular creations from top fashion houses
- Sharp comebacks from Miranda and Emily
- A new generation of conflicts at the intersection of career and private life
“The Devil Wears Prada 2” is not only a nostalgic return to beloved characters, but also a fresh story about the clash of generations, the power of a brand and the challenges of a woman’s career in the modern media world. It’s fair to say – a new fashion reshuffle for the 21st century!
