It’s happening – after countless years of endless speculation, The Devil Wears Prada sequel is well on its way, with Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci all strutting back to Runway exactly two decades on.
Joining them is the original film’s screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna, who has penned the next chapter, as well as its director David Frankel, and producer Wendy Finerman. The storyline will follow “Miranda Priestly as she navigates her career amid the decline of traditional magazine publishing and faces off against Blunt’s character, Emily Charlton, now a high-powered executive for a luxury group with advertising dollars that Priestly desperately needs”.
Meanwhile, there is a new “Mr Priestly” – Kenneth Branagh – plus other cast newcomers including Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, Patrick Brammall, Pauline Chalamet, BJ Novak, comedian Caleb Hearon, and Broadway stars Helen J Shen and Conrad Ricamora. And as for a few more returning favourites? Tracie Thoms, aka Andy’s gallerist friend Lily, and Tibor Feldman, who played Elias-Clark chairman Irv Ravitz (“tiny man, huge ego”), will both be back – and thankfully, Adrian Grenier’s Nate will not.
Three trailers have so far been released, with the latest packed with throwbacks to the original film, plus a greater insight into why exactly our heroine has returned to her former stomping ground. (“You could write a book,” a friend tells Andy. “The definitive Miranda Priestly exposé.”) Watch them all, below.
You’ll be able to catch the film in cinemas sooner than you might think: on 1 May. In time for spring and just days ahead of the Met Gala? Groundbreaking.
