Nearly 20 years after The Devil Wears Prada became one of fashion’s most beloved films, Miranda Priestly and the Runway team are back. The Devil Wears Prada 2 reunites the original cast for a fresh chapter that explores how the fashion and media industries have changed in the digital age.
Directed by David Frankel and written by Aline Brosh McKenna, the sequel brings back Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci, while introducing several new faces to the franchise.
The story picks up years after Andy Sachs walked away from Runway magazine, choosing a different path over a career under Miranda Priestly. This time, however, circumstances lead her back into the fashion world.
According to Variety, Miranda is now facing the decline of traditional print publishing in 2026 and must turn to Emily Charlton—who has become a powerful executive in luxury advertising—for financial support. Andy also returns to Runway at a new stage in both her personal and professional life, setting the stage for another complex relationship with her former boss.
Anne Hathaway revealed that the sequel offers much more than a nostalgic reunion.
Speaking during an interview with TODAY, the actress praised writer Aline Brosh McKenna for giving the characters a meaningful new direction.
“Aline McKenna cracked it, and she found a reason why we should make it beyond just nostalgia, beyond just giving people what they want. She found something new and more to say with these characters,” Hathaway said.
One of the film’s biggest themes is the transformation of journalism and fashion media. The glamorous magazine industry that once defined Runway has changed dramatically, and the sequel reflects those real-world challenges.
Stanley Tucci explained that journalism, magazines, artificial intelligence, and technology have reshaped the industry, making the story particularly relevant today.
Meryl Streep also shared that the characters are navigating an uncertain world while trying to stay true to themselves.
“Everybody in their lives has had to surf the new reality and figure out how to survive, how to keep their scruples intact, how to keep their conscience awake and alive,” she said.
Alongside the returning stars, The Devil Wears Prada 2 welcomes Kenneth Branagh, Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, and Simone Ashley, bringing new rivalries and fresh dynamics to Miranda Priestly’s world.
