Nearly two decades after it became a cultural phenomenon, The Devil Wears Prada is strutting back into the spotlight with a long-anticipated sequel. This time, the stakes are higher, the heels are sharper, and the fashion is even fiercer. With original stars returning and a fresh story rooted in today’s media and style landscape, The Devil Wears Prada 2 is shaping up to be one of the most buzzed-about films of 2026.
Here’s everything we know—so far.
The Icons Return
Fan-favorite icons are back: Meryl Streep reprises her role as the cold-as-ice, sharp-tongued editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly, while Anne Hathaway returns as Andy Sachs—older, wiser, and with a wardrobe to match. Emily Blunt is back as Emily Charlton, now a luxury advertising executive, and Stanley Tucci returns as the ever-fashionable Nigel.
Also returning to round out the Runway universe are Tracie Thoms and Tibor Feldman. Notably absent? Adrian Grenier, who played Andy’s boyfriend Nate—leaving space for a new romantic arc that’s already turning heads.
Enter a New Leading Man
Australian actor Patrick Brammall (Colin From Accounts) has joined the cast as Andy’s new love interest. The pair were recently spotted filming intimate scenes on the streets of Brooklyn, fueling excitement (and speculation) about Andy’s evolution—from harried assistant to power player in her own right.Also joining the cast: Kenneth Branagh, Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, Pauline Chalamet, Simone Ashley, and B.J. Novak, among others. It’s a powerful mix of prestige talent and rising stars—fitting for a franchise known for bold casting choices.
A Fashion Renaissance
Set photos from New York reveal jaw-dropping looks. Costume designer Molly Rogers, who trained under the legendary Patricia Field, is redefining office chic for a post-pandemic world.
Expect tailored navy suits, belted trench coats, pleated skirts, bold jewelry, and a return to clean, powerful silhouettes. In one Met Gala–inspired scene filmed at the Metropolitan Museum of Natural History, Streep dazzled in a red ballgown and statement necklace, signaling Miranda’s dramatic return to the fashion throne.
The fashion isn't just stylish—it's forecasting trends. From oversized blazers to denim jumpsuits, what we’re seeing on set is already influencing street style on social media.
A NEW ERA, A New Industry
This sequel doesn’t just rehash old plotlines—it reflects real-world shifts. With print magazines in decline and digital disruption changing the rules, The Devil Wears Prada 2 explores Miranda’s fight to stay relevant in a media landscape that barely resembles the one she once ruled.Meanwhile, Emily Charlton is navigating luxury brand deals in the influencer economy, and Andy’s reappearance hints at a full-circle moment—both personally and professionally.The story draws loose inspiration from Lauren Weisberger’s 2013 follow-up novel Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns, though screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna is taking the material in new directions to resonate with today’s audience.
Anne Hathaway is back on the NYC streets as Andy Sachs—and her Devil Wears Prada 2 looks are already setting the tone for fall fashion.
Given we don't know the plot of the movie, it's still possible that fashion photos are not spoilers after all.
