Gird your loins! A sequel to the absolute classic The Devil Wears Prada is coming soon from Disney, and will follow the lives and careers of two of the movie's most memorable characters. And get this – we've had many exciting new castings and a confirmed release date for summer 2026, as well as some truly incredible celebrity cameos.
And now, fashionistas and fellow divas, we even have a trailer.
Will there be a hell of a lot of rivalry? In a recent interview where she was asked about the sequel, Emily commented: “Why are Meryl and I so mean to each other in every movie we do? We always have beef with each other. I don’t know what it is. Let’s hope we remedy it. I’m not sure.”
Blunt has also opened up to co-star Anne Hathaway about the ways that The Devil Wears Prada changed her life. “We just had a joy bomb of a time on that movie,” Blunt told Hathaway during a conversation for Variety’s Actors on Actors series. “I don’t know if any of us knew it was going to become what it did. It’s quoted to me every week. It will be the movie that changed my life.”
Is there a trailer for The Devil Wears Prada 2?
The Devil Wears Prada 2 is less than two months away, and we’ve finally got our first official look. The sequel will see Andy return to Runway as Miranda attempts to keep the magazine afloat in an increasingly perilous media landscape.
One person who is no longer at Runway, however, is Emily. Emily Blunt’s character is now the head of a luxury brand and holds the keys to serious commercial power—something that could prove crucial to Runway’s survival.
Needless to say, we can’t wait to see more. Watch The Devil Wears Prada 2 trailer:
The clip features plenty of familiar faces, and also gives us our first glimpse of Simone Ashley’s mysterious new character.
In the scene, Meryl Streep’s Miranda is in full, scathing form while reviewing the latest photos for Runway, asking Andy whether “the models were encouraged to mill around like starving goats in the parking lot of a methadone clinic in New Jersey.”
As she delivers the line, Ashley’s character interrupts with a pointed throat-clear to get Miranda’s attention.
“What? What am I not allowed to say? Methadone? New Jersey?” Miranda quips in response, suggesting Ashley’s character may be tasked with gently stopping the editor-in-chief from saying anything too offensive.
We’re sure Miranda absolutely adores that.
The Devil Wears Prada sequel cast
Along with the movie's previous stars Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci, it has been announced that both Bridgerton's Simone Ashley and Charlie's Angels star Lucy Liu will be joining the sequel's cast.
We've also had confirmation of some seriously exciting celeb appearances. Lady Gaga has reportedly filmed a cameo for the iconic sequel in between dates for her Mayhem Ball tour extravaganza. Fashion VIPs such as Anna Wintour will also appear, as well as Naomi Campbell, Donatella Versace, Heidi Klum and Marc Jacobs.
Media royalty such as Chicken Shop Date's Amelia Dimoldenberg, ex-Vanity Fair Tina Brown, as well as Sydney Sweeney, Ciara and Ashley Graham are also reported to be appearing in the movie.
Kenneth Branagh has also been confirmed to be starring. The Belfast-born actor is known for his roles in Harry Potter and Agatha Christie adaptation A Haunting in Venice.
Joining the OG cast, Simone Ashley, Lucy Liu and Kenneth Branagh will be Justin Theroux, BJ Novak and Pauline Chalamet.
Tracie Thoms, who played Hathaway's character Andy's best friend Lily and Tibor Feldman, who portrayed Irv Ravitz – the head of Runway's parent company Elias-Clark – will also return for the sequel. Broadway stars Helen J. Shen and Conrad Ricamora and comedian Caleb Hearon are also joining the cast.
The Devil Wears Prada sequel release date
The much-awaited and hyped sequel is due to be released in cinemas on 1 May 2026.
When Anne's been asked the sequel in the past, she's admittedly not been positive – she told Entertainment Tonight last year: “there's not going to be a sequel. It's not gonna happen. We can't do it.” Something must have changed her mind.
She added in an interview with V Magazine earlier in 2024: “We all love each other and if somebody could come up with a way to do it, I think we’d all be crazy not to. But 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. Maybe me, Stanley, Emily, Meryl, Dave Frankel, Patricia Field… we should just all do something else together. That’d be fun."
Fans feel passionately about the whole gang reuniting for a sequel, including Anne. One even posted on X (formerly Twitter): “full OG cast or nothing”.
