Nearly two decades later, the iconic fashion drama returns with its original cast and a modern twist on media rivalry.

The much-anticipated sequel to The Devil Wears Prada is steadily building buzz, with The Devil Wears Prada 2 set to bring back one of the most memorable on-screen pairings in fashion cinema.

Nearly 20 years after the original film became a cultural phenomenon, the sequel revisits the high-stakes world of fashion publishing, promising a blend of nostalgia and contemporary storytelling. Hathaway and Blunt’s dynamic—marked by wit, tension and evolving camaraderie—was central to the original film’s appeal, and is expected to return in a more layered form in the sequel.

Speaking in a recent interview, Hathaway didn’t hesitate when asked to name her favourite co-star. “Emily Blunt. Absolutely, every time. She will make your job so easy, and every day will be a complete delight.” The statement reflects the strong professional rapport between the two actors, something that has consistently translated into their on-screen chemistry.

The sequel also marks a full-circle moment for the franchise, with director David Frankel returning to helm the project, alongside screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna. Backed by 20th Century Studios, the film is slated for a global theatrical release on May 1, 2026.

Reprising their roles are Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly, Anne Hathaway as Andy Sachs, Emily Blunt as Emily Charlton and Stanley Tucci as Nigel Kipling. The film also introduces new characters, expanding its ensemble while retaining the core cast that defined the original.

In terms of narrative, the sequel is expected to shift focus to the challenges faced by traditional print media in the digital age. Miranda Priestly, still at the helm of Runway magazine, reportedly finds herself navigating a rapidly evolving landscape dominated by digital platforms and influencers. In a reversal of their earlier dynamic, Emily Charlton is said to emerge as a powerful figure in the luxury fashion space, setting the stage for a renewed professional clash.

With its mix of returning talent, updated themes and enduring character dynamics, The Devil Wears Prada 2 is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated global releases of 2026.
