Cerulean Surprise: Hathaway Teases Devil Wears Prada Sequel!
The Devil Wears Prada is Back, and So is Andy Sachs - Get Ready for the Most Epic Sequel Yet!
It's been almost two decades since Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway) donned that infamous cerulean blue sweater and charmed her way into our hearts in the cult classic film The Devil Wears Prada. But, as it turns out, Andy isn't just a one-hit wonder - she's back, and so is Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep)!
On Monday, July 21st, Hathaway sent shockwaves through the internet with a sneak peek of her return to the world of Runway magazine on TikTok. The six-second clip showed the 42-year-old actress frantically getting ready for work - and, yes, brushing her teeth with an electric toothbrush (a far cry from Andy's manual one in that iconic job interview scene).
But it was her outfit that really got our pulses racing! Hathaway appeared to be wearing none other than a cerulean blue sweater - the very same shade that Miranda Priestly famously dissected in that legendary monologue. And, if you thought it was just a coincidence, think again!
The Original Monologue: A Fashion Icon's Verdict
For those who may not recall (or have been living under a fashion rock), Andy finds herself chuckling during a Runway fashion meeting only to be eviscerated by Miranda Priestly. The latter famously says:
"I see, you think this has nothing to do with you... You go to your closet and you select, I don't know that lumpy blue sweater, for instance, because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back.
She continues: 'But what you don't know is that that sweater is not just blue, it's not turquoise, it's not lapis, it's actually cerulean.'
'Then it trickled down into some tragic, casual corner where you fished it out of some clearance bin... That blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs, and it's sort of comical how you think you've made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry.'
The Schmoop Factor: Fans Go Wild!
As soon as Hathaway posted her TikTok teaser, fans went into overdrive. One enthusiastic commenter gushed: "SHE'S WEARING THAT CERULEAN BLUE!!!!" Another confessed they felt like a kid waiting for Christmas for The Devil Wears Prada SEQUEL!!!!" And another wrote: "EVERYBODY STAY CALM IT'S HAPPENING!"
The Sequel Scoop: What We Know So Far
Just hours after Hathaway's TikTok post, she was spotted on set of The Devil Wears Prada 2 wearing a white T-shirt under a black vest and a long light-wash denim skirt. She completed the look with black sunglasses and wore her long hair in soft, loose waves. But what really caught our attention was the folded newspaper clutched in her hand - could this be a hint that Andy has remained in the world of journalism?
As for the plot, early reports suggest Miranda Priestly (Streep) will face off against Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt), who has climbed the corporate ladder and now holds the power Miranda needs. Meanwhile, Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, and Pauline Chalamet have joined the cast for this highly anticipated sequel.
The Devil Wears Prada 2: A Fashion-Filled Fury
In an era dominated by digital media and declining print magazines, Miranda Priestly will struggle to stay relevant - and Andy Sachs will find herself in the midst of it all. The story may draw inspiration from Lauren Weisberger's 2013 novel Revenge Wears Prada, which follows Andy's post-Runway life as she becomes a magazine editor only to find Miranda crashing back into her world.
So mark your calendars for May 1st, 2026 - that's when we'll get to see the epic return of Andy Sachs and Miranda Priestly. And trust us, it's going to be one wild ride!
