What will the Devil Wears Prada sequel be about?

The Devil Wears Prada sequel, or the Devil Wears Prada 2 if you will, is said to follow the stories of current-day Miranda Priestly (played in the original film by Meryl Streep) and Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt), who reconnect as Priestly navigates a rough patch in her glossy editing career due to the decline of traditional magazine publishing.

Who is in the cast of the Devil Wears Prada 2?

No casting announcements have yet been made public for the Devil Wears Prada 2, but given that the story centers on Miranda Priestly and Emily, most assume Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt will likely reprise their roles.

There is no word on whether the sequel story will include Andrea "Andy" Sachs, Anne Hathaway's titular role from the original movie.

How does the original cast of The Devil Wears Prada feel about a sequel?

Earlier this year, Anne Hathaway opened up about the possibility of a Devil Wears Prada sequel while promoting The Idea of You, and she said it was "probably not" happening.

"There's a huge difference in the world now with technology, and one of the things about that particular story is it was about producing a physical object. Now, with so much being digital, it would just be very different," Hathaway claimed at the time — though the potential new plot seems to have that covered.

Emily Blunt also said that "sometimes things should be cherished and preserved in this bubble, and it's okay," hinting that a sequel would not be a good idea, though she had previously said she'd be down to make it happen "if everyone did it" but also had some reservations, claiming that "sometimes when you sequel everything [it] kind of dilutes how special the original is."

That said, Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, and Emily Blunt did have a Devil Wears Prada reunion during the SAG Awards 2024, so maybe that little meeting changed their minds.
