Okay, so it’s 2026, and we’re still talking about *The Devil Wears Prada*. Honestly, it feels like just yesterday we were watching Andy Sachs navigate the terrifying halls of Runway. But what about a sequel? *The Devil Wears Prada 2*? Is it ever gonna happen? We’ve been waiting for literally two decades to see Miranda Priestly again, and the internet is going WILD. Let’s get into all the updates, rumors, and why we NEED this movie, like, yesterday.
1. The Original Is Still Peak Cinema, No Cap.
2006. $326 million worldwide box office. 75% on Rotten Tomatoes. It’s a classic. Every single line is quotable. “Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking.” OMG, Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly is just… everything. It set the bar for fashion movies. We still watch it like it’s a new release, honestly.
2. Lauren Weisberger Wrote A Sequel Book!

Yes, you heard that right! “Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns” came out in 2013. It picks up Andy’s story years later, where she’s running her own bridal magazine. Miranda *does* make an appearance, naturally. This book is literally the foundation for any potential movie sequel, so it’s a huge deal.
3. Anne Hathaway Is Totally Down To Return.
Our queen Anne Hathaway (aka Andy Sachs) has been pretty consistent. She told Entertainment Tonight in 2021 that she “would love to do it.” And then again in 2022 on The View, she said she’d be “thrilled” if it happened. Honestly, we can’t imagine anyone else as Andy. Her enthusiasm gives us hope!
4. Emily Blunt Has Thoughts About Emily Charlton.
Emily Blunt, who played the *other* Emily, has also talked about it! She told Variety in 2024 that while she’s open to it, she’d want to make sure it felt “right” and not just a cash grab. She also joked about Emily Charlton being a “boss b***h” now. We’d LIVE for that!
5. Meryl Streep’s Stance Is A Little More Mysterious.
Meryl Streep, the legend herself, has been a bit more reserved. While she hasn’t outright said “no,” she’s also never been super gung-ho about sequels in general. She told Variety in 2024, “I don’t know,” when asked. We get it, Miranda is a tough act to follow, but OMG, we need her!
6. Stanley Tucci (Nigel!) Also Has Conditions.
Stanley Tucci, our beloved Nigel, reportedly told The Hollywood Reporter in 2023 that he’d be “thrilled” to do a sequel, but only if “everyone else” was on board. That’s a huge caveat, right? The chemistry of the original cast is non-negotiable for us.
7. The Director Is Skeptical, But Not Closed Off.
David Frankel, the director of the original film, told Entertainment Weekly in 2021 that he felt the story had a “perfect ending.” However, he also acknowledged that “anything’s possible” if the right script came along. So, not a hard no! Just needs that perfect sparkle.
8. Why Hasn’t It Happened Already?!
Real talk: The biggest hurdle seems to be finding the *right* script and getting *everyone* (especially Meryl!) to sign on. It’s been 20 years, so schedules are tough. Plus, Hollywood often moves slow on beloved properties. We’re patiently (impatiently) waiting, though!
9. What Would A Modern ‘TDP2’ Even Look Like?
The fashion world has changed SO much since 2006! Social media, influencers, fast fashion vs. sustainability. Imagine Miranda dealing with TikTok! Andy could be a digital media mogul, or still battling Miranda in a new way. The possibilities are endless, and honestly, exciting.
10. Streaming Platform Battle Royale If It Happens.
If *The Devil Wears Prada 2* ever gets made, where would it land? The original was 20th Century Fox, now owned by Disney. So, Disney+ or Hulu are strong contenders. But would a streamer like Netflix or Max swoop in with a huge offer? We’re picturing bidding wars!
11. Our Dream Streaming Release Date Estimate?
Look, if they started filming TODAY (May 2026), we’d be looking at late 2027 or early 2028 *at the absolute earliest*. Realistically, with everyone’s schedules and getting a script perfect, we’re probably talking 2029-2030. A girl can dream, right?!
12. The Fandom Is STILL Begging For More.
Seriously, the internet never forgets. Every time the cast reunites or even just *mentions* the movie, Twitter/X, Instagram, and Reddit go into a frenzy. We are a dedicated fanbase, and our collective screams for a sequel are deafening. The demand is there!
