The Devil Wears Prada will soon be returning to the silver screen with one of the most anticipated sequels in cinematic history. The first movie hit screens in 2006 and with it, we were handed a series of iconic moments and soundbites that have stuck fast in the wider cultural consciousness ('Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking).
The film was based on a novel by Lauren Weisberger, with a plot that unfolded around a fictional magazine, reportedly based on Vogue, and charts the cut throat world of fashion publishing. Meryl Streep plays the magazine's cold and unreasonable editor, Miranda Priestly, with Stanley Tucci joining as her right-hand man Nigel. Some of the most comedic lines are delivered by Emily Blunt, whose character (coincidentally, also called Emily) is the uber-ambitious assistant to Miranda, while star of the show Anne Hathaway plays the newbie in the office.
The movie was such a wild success that it has since made its way onto the stage, with musical versions taking place in London and New York. The new film, which comes out in early summer 2026, sees the return of all of these stars plus a host of exciting newcomers. Whether you are tuning in for the fashion, the glamour, the plot or the script, you are sure to find something to delight in the sequel. Here's everything we know so far.
