The makers have announced that the upcoming film will arrive in theatres on May 1, 2026.
News about the development of ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’ broke in July last year when US media outlets reported that screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna, who penned the original movie, was in talks to return to write the film.
At the time, it was said that the upcoming sequel would follow Presley’s (Meryl Streep) struggles as she navigates her career amid the decline of traditional magazine publishing.
The movie will also see her face off against Emily Blunt’s character, who has now become a high-powered executive for a luxury group.
It is worth noting here that the original film saw Meryl Streep play Miranda Presley, the editor-in-chief of Runway magazine, while Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt appeared as her assistants Andrea Sachs and Emily Charlton.
The film was a box office hit, earning $326.7 million worldwide.
Streep scored a win at the Golden Globe for best actress in a comedy, apart from an Academy Award nomination.
