The Devil Wears Prada is a certified classic that I simply must watch every time it is on TV. Everything from Andy’s transformation into a fashion IT girl to Miranda’s absolutely scathing lines are iconic. Now, nearly 20 years later, we will get a sequel to The Devil Wears Prada and possibly see the original stars, director, and producer all returning. In July 2024, Entertainment Weekly reported that Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci are in talks to return for a new The Devil Wears Prada movie alongside director David Frankel. If we get Anne back as Andy and the Queen of Genovia, we will be winning.
Now, months later, the film is set for a May 1, 2026 release but there’s still no confirmation about its cast. According to Variety, The Devil Wears Prada 2 is supposedly about Priestly, who continues to navigate her career amid the decline of traditional magazine publishing. She will go up against Andy, who is now a high-powered executive for a luxury group with advertising dollars that Priestly desperately needs.
In addition to producer Wendy Finerman possibly coming on board, screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna could pen the script. The Devil Wears Prada sequel is actually happening at Disney. For now, Disney is not confirming nor denying anything in regards to casting, so we will have to wait and see what actually happens. In the meantime, we can always head over to Max and enjoy the existing film.
