The Devil Wears Prada 2 Officially Has A Release Date

‘Twas the summer of 2024 when we first heard the news: There’s a brand new sequel to the 2006 smash hit The Devil Wears Prada, starring Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep. Millennials everywhere rejoiced — this movie is so good and so quotable, and I’ve watched it so many times that it’s basically part of my DNA at this point. And now, an official teaser trailer has been released, and I simply can not explain the vibrations I felt hearing “Vogue” softly in the background.

If you’re anything like me, you’ll be *sat* in a movie theater seat wide-eyed and ready when the sequel truly does come to be. For now, here’s everything we know about The Devil Wears Prada reboot, from returning cast rumors to potential plot lines.

What will The Devil Wears Prada sequel be about?

In July of 2024, Puck magazine revealed that a follow-up to the original film was in the works with Disney. Deadline later confirmed this was true and that Aline Brosh McKenna — the screenwriter of the first The Devil Wears Prada — was tapped to write the script.

The working theory is that the new movie will pick up after the conclusion of the first one, and will follow Miranda Priestly as she reaches the end of her career. The real heyday of print magazines is over, and she’s grappling with going digital while also forming an intense rivalry with her former assistant Emily, now an exec at a company whose advertising dollars Priestly really needs.

In the first teaser trailer, the camera follows a pair of red heels — presumably Prada — as they walk through the same office from the first movie, eventually revealing that they belong to Miranda Priestley. As she enters the elevator, a hand stops the doors from closing, and another woman joins her: Andrea, Anne Hathaway’s character from the first movie. Miranda looks to her and says, “Took you long enough,” as Andrea puts on a pair of black sunglasses, similar to Miranda’s.

Yes, we also got immediate chills.

The Devil Wears Prada Sequel Cast

The first movie’s Oscar-winning producer, Wendy Finerman, is said to be returning to produce DWP No. 2, and she reportedly convinced both Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt to reprise their roles of Miranda Priestly and Emily Charlton.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 official teaser trailer also reveals that the movie will star Streep and Blunt, along with Anne Hathaway and Stanley Tucci, both reprising their roles as Andrea Sachs and Nigel.

The Devil Wears Prada Sequel Release Date

There were no rumblings about a release date for a while, but the teaser trailer officially announced The Devil Wears Prada 2 release date as May 1. Whether that means it will have some kind of streaming platform to also premiere on or only be in theaters, we can’t be sure yet.

So yes, for fans of the original film, it feels like its sequel is moving at a glacial pace. But if the teaser trailer has proven anything, we know it’s going to be worth the wait.
