20th Century Studios has unveiled the full trailer for ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2,’ signalling a sharp-heeled return to the world of Runway magazine. Nearly two decades after the original film became a cultural touchstone, fashion’s most feared editor is back, and this time the industry beneath her stilettos is cracking.
Meryl Streep reprises her Oscar-winning role as Miranda Priestly, the ice-cool editor-in-chief whose withering glances still cut deeper than any review. Anne Hathaway returns as Andy Sachs, while Emily Blunt is back as the ferociously ambitious Emily Charlton and Stanley Tucci once again plays the impeccably connected Nigel. Joining the ensemble is Kenneth Branagh, stepping into the role of Miranda’s husband, adding a new personal dimension to the famously private powerhouse.
The trailer teases a sequel rooted firmly in the modern media landscape. As traditional magazine publishing falters, Miranda must navigate shrinking influence, digital disruption and the brutal economics of survival in fashion journalism. Blunt’s Emily, now a high-powered executive at a luxury conglomerate, controls the advertising revenue Miranda desperately needs, setting the stage for a delicious power reversal between former boss and assistant.
The supporting cast brings fresh energy to the sequel, with Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, Patrick Brammall, Caleb Hearon, Helen J. Shen, Pauline Chalamet, Tracie Thoms, Tibor Feldman, B.J. Novak and Conrad Ricamora all set to appear.
