Nearly two decades after The Devil Wears Prada first hit the big screen and became an instant classic, fans can officially mark their calendars. Disney has announced that the long-awaited sequel to the 2006 fashion comedy-drama will be released in theatres on , according to Variety.
Speculation around The Devil Wears Prada 2 had been brewing since reports surfaced in 2023 about a potential follow-up to the original hit film. While early chatter suggested the return of core cast members Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt, Disney has yet to confirm any names officially. Still, that hasn’t dampened the excitement of fans who have long cherished the iconic trio of Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt.
The original film, based on Lauren Weisberger’s 2003 novel, chronicled the story of Andrea Sachs (played by Anne Hathaway), a young journalism graduate who lands a job as the assistant to Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep), the formidable editor-in-chief of Runway, a fictional fashion magazine. Emily Blunt played the snappy first assistant, and Stanley Tucci delivered a memorable performance as Nigel, the fashion-savvy mentor who helps Andy find her way in the ruthless world of high fashion.
Tucci recently addressed the sequel buzz in an interview with Variety, admitting, “I know they’re working on it. If it happens, I would be so happy… It was one of the best experiences ever.” He remained tight-lipped on the details, joking that he might end up in “actor’s prison” for saying too much.
According to early plot leaks, The Devil Wears Prada 2 will reflect the changing landscape of the media industry. The sequel reportedly follows Miranda Priestly as she tries to stay relevant amid the decline of traditional print publishing. In a twist, her former assistant Emily (Blunt) is now a high-ranking executive at a luxury fashion conglomerate that holds the advertising revenue Miranda desperately needs. The power dynamics are set to flip, promising intense drama with a touch of biting wit.
The announcement came as part of Disney’s updated release calendar, which also revealed major delays in Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars—two blockbuster tentpoles now pushed to December 2026 and December 2027, respectively.
With fashion, power plays, and nostalgia fueling anticipation, The Devil Wears Prada 2 is poised to be one of the most talked-about releases of 2026.
