âA sequel? For spring? Groundbreaking.â đ
After nearly two decades, fashionâs most iconic devil is back â sharper, sassier, and even more cutthroat than ever. The Devil Wears Prada 2 reunites the legendary cast of Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci in a stylish return to the glossy chaos of Runway Magazine.
The film, directed by David Frankel and written by Aline Brosh McKenna, struts into theaters May 1, 2026, with a teaser trailer already setting the internet ablaze. Itâs time to grab your heels, sip your lattes, and prepare for another devilishly perfect dose of drama, ambition, and couture.
đ The Return of Fashion Royalty
Almost 20 years after redefining workplace dramedy, The Devil Wears Prada 2 finds Miranda Priestly ruling her empire with the same icy poise, Andy Sachs redefining herself in the digital media world, and Emily Charlton thriving in her high-fashion orbit. But this time, the battle isnât over a cerulean sweater â itâs over the future of fashion itself.
As social media influencers and AI-driven trend cycles threaten Runwayâs dominance, Miranda faces a world thatâs changed faster than a fashion week lineup. But as any fan knows, the Devil doesnât go down without a designer fight.
âYou think fashion is about looking good? Itâs about surviving the next click.â
