THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA Sequel Set for May 2026, Casting Details Still Unknown


Listen Later

The article discusses the renewed possibility of a "The Devil Wears Prada" sequel, primarily sparked by Anne Hathaway's recent comments on "The View."

Key points:

  1. Anne Hathaway's Enthusiasm: Hathaway stated she'd be open to a sequel, calling it "tempting" and "fun," but acknowledged it's a "dream" and would be challenging to make happen due to the original's success and everyone's schedules. She emphasized the original film's continued relevance.
  2. Meryl Streep's Previous Stance: The article contrasts Hathaway's optimism with Meryl Streep's previously expressed (in 2022) reluctance. Streep questioned the need for a sequel and humorously suggested Miranda Priestly might be in an "enclosed community in Florida." Her participation is seen as crucial.
  3. Emily Blunt's Conditional Interest: Emily Blunt has also previously (in 2022) expressed interest, but only if Streep and Hathaway were involved.
  4. Challenges: A sequel faces significant hurdles: living up to the iconic original, securing the original cast (especially Streep) and director, and finding a compelling new story.
  5. Book Sequel Exists: Lauren Weisberger wrote a book sequel, "Revenge Wears Prada," but it wasn't as well-received as the original novel, and a movie sequel wouldn't necessarily follow its plot.
  6. Alternative - A Different Project: Hathaway also floated the idea of the original cast and director re-teaming for a different project if a direct sequel proves too difficult.
  7. Fan Desire: Despite the challenges, there's significant fan desire for a sequel due to the original film's enduring popularity.
