<p>Key Points -</p>
<p>The Devil Wears Prada 2 is officially back in production in New York City.</p>
<p>Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci are back for the sequel.</p>
<p>EW previously exclusively reported that Adrian Grenier will not return for the second film.</p>
<p>The last two decades spent without a Devil Wears Prada sequel started to feel a little bit like enduring a 20-year hideous skirt convention. Now, Runway readers can rejoice, as The Devil Wears Prada 2 is officially in production with stars Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Stanley Tucci, and Emily Blunt back in business — amid a shifting journalism landscape, that is.</p>
<p>Director David Frankel has once again united a powerhouse cast of Hollywood stars for a revival of one of the most popular comedies of the aughts, with The Devil Wears Prada 2 picking up after the first film highlighted the story of Andy Sachs (Hathaway), an aspiring journalist who begrudgingly takes a job working under a ruthless fashion magazine editor, Miranda Priestly (Streep), and her army of haute henchmen (Blunt, Tucci).</p>

<p>Little is known about the upcoming movie's plot, but with cameras currently rolling on the project in New York City, news is spilling out at a rate that might require, as Tucci's Nigel might say, a little Crisco and some fishing line to contain.</p>
<p>Read on for everything we know so far about Streep, Hathaway, Tucci, Blunt, and more reuniting for The Devil Wears Prada 2.</p>
<p>Which cast members and crew are returning for The Devil Wears Prada 2?</p>

<p>Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, and Emily Blunt in 'The Devil Wears Prada.' All are returning for the sequel</p>
<p>Entertainment Weekly exclusively reported in July 2024 that most primary cast and crew members from the first film were in talks to reprise their roles in the sequel, including Streep (Miranda Priestly), Hathaway (Andy Sachs), Tucci (Nigel Kipling), Blunt (Emily Charlton), director David Frankel, and screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna.</p>
<p>The cast all officially signed on shortly thereafter, with OG cast members Tracie Thoms (Lily) and Tibor Feldman (Irv Ravitz) also reprising their roles, while additional returning crew members include producer Wendy Finerman and cinematographer Florian Ballhaus.</p>
<p>EW reached out to representatives for supermodel Gisele Bündchen to see if she would reprise her role as Serena, a Runway magazine office worker, in the film, though one of her agents replied only with a crying emoji.</p>
<p>Which new cast members are joining The Devil Wears Prada sequel?</p>

<p>Rachel Bloom and Patrick Brammall join the cast of 'The Devil Wears Prada 2'</p>
<p>Unconfirmed industry reports swirled that stars like Kenneth Branagh, Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, Pauline Chalamet, Simone Ashley, and more had joined the cast, with further clarity only on Branagh's role being reported as that of Miranda's (Streep) latest husband.</p>
<p>Later, EW confirmed that McKenna's Crazy Ex-Girlfriend co-creator and star Rachel Bloom had joined the cast alongside Evil's Patrick Brammall, with EW exclusively revealing that Brammall would replace Adrian Grenier as Andy's (Hathaway) love interest.</p>
<p>Why isn't Adrian Grenier returning for The Devil Wears Prada 2?</p>
<p>EW exclusively reported in June that Grenier, who portrayed Andy's divisive boyfriend Nate Cooper in the first film, wouldn't return for The Devil Wears Prada 2. Two sources familiar with the situation confirmed that the Entourage star wouldn't be back as Nate, Andy's foodie boyfriend who, at the end of the first film, landed a job as a sous chef at a prestigious Boston restaurant, and floated the idea of bringing Andy with him to the Massachusetts city.</p>
<p>An exact reason wasn't given for Grenier's absence from the project, though the star has largely retreated from acting in recent years to focus on activism, with his last major role in a scripted project being the 2021 Netflix series Clickbait.</p>

<p>In a prior interview with EW, Grenier said that he'd reflected on criticism of the character, after many fans labeled him as the real villain of the movie after Nate's poorly handled reactions to Andy's rapidly developing career — including that time she was late to his birthday party because she had to work.</p>
<p>"All those memes that came out were shocking to me. It hadn't occurred to me until I started to really think about it, and perhaps it was because I was as immature as Nate was at the time, and in many ways he's very selfish and self-involved, it was all about him, he wasn't extending himself to support Andy in her career," Grenier said at the time. "At the end of the day, it's just a birthday, right? It's not the end of the world. I might've been as immature as him at the time, so I personally couldn't see his shortcomings. But after time to reflect and much deliberation, I've come to realize the truth in that perspective."</p>
<p>What is The Devil Wears Prada 2 about?</p>
<p>Plot details for The Devil Wears Prada 2 haven't been announced. But, writer Lauren Weisberger, whose first novel based on her time working under Vogue's Anna Wintour laid the foundation for the 2006 film, released two sequels: 2013's Revenge Wears Prada and 2018's When Life Gives You Lululemons.</p>
<p>The 2013 book follows Andy shortly after she's turned 30, and has transitioned her career into becoming a successful magazine editor alongside Emily, now one of her best friends. Together, the pair have an unexpected encounter with Miranda that threatens to upend their lives.</p>
<p>In EW's 15th anniversary oral history interview with the cast and crew, McKenna teased that a sequel might not be possible due to the changing landscape of print journalism.</p>
<p>"Magazines and publishing have changed so much. This is a period of time where [Andy] took a physical book to someone's house every day so she could leaf through it. Maybe they still do that, but I doubt it. It had its moment," McKenna said at the time.</p>
<p>Where did the first Devil Wears Prada movie leave off?</p>

<p>The end of The Devil Wears Prada sees Andy realizing, while on a trip to Paris with Miranda, that the fast-paced life of a fashion journalist isn't her cup of tea. She tosses her iconic Sidekick phone into a fountain and jets off to New York City, leaving Miranda stranded without an assistant in France. Andy ditches her wardrobe of expensive threads (much to Emily's delight) and opts for a pared-down life. We last see her attempting to reconnect with Nate following their breakup, while he flirts with the idea of bringing her along to Boston, where he's set to start a new job as a sous chef at a restaurant.Moments later, Andy has a job interview at a local newspaper — you know, the kind that does "real" journalism, at least in Andy's eyes. It goes well, mostly due to an unexpectedly supportive recommendation letter her potential new boss received after he reached out to Runway on a reference call.</p>
<p>As Andy exits the building, she sees Miranda entering a car from across the street. She waves, with Miranda simply grabbing her sunglasses in response. While Andy sets out on a new path into the sun beaming through New York City, the camera cuts back to Miranda, with the skyscrapers around her casting shadows that look oddly like prison bars as she remains hunkered down in her couture career bubble.</p>
<p>Where is The Devil Wears Prada 2 being filmed?</p>
<p>The Devil Wears Prada 2 is currently filming in New York City, though other locations haven't been confirmed just yet. If the film remains consistent with the tone of the first (and the global reach of the fashion industry), we can possibly expect to see the film shift production to a different locale, as the first movie filmed several scenes across one whirlwind weekend in Paris, as the cast and crew previously told EW in our 15th anniversary oral history.</p>

<p>A source previously confirmed to EW that filming would officially begin on July 21, 2025, and was expected to last throughout the summer. A specific end date for filming has yet to be revealed, though fans shared photos from the set in New York City as they watched production unfold throughout the rest of July.</p>
<p>When will The Devil Wears Prada 2 be released?</p>
<p>The Devil Wears Prada 2 is set to premiere in theaters on May 1, 2026, via 20th Century Studios — almost exactly 20 years after the first film's theatrical bow in June 2006.</p>
