Donatella Versace and Anne Hathaway Set the Scene in Milan for The Devil Wears Prada 2
THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA 2: THE WAIT IS FINALLY OVER!
Get ready, fashionistas, because the highly anticipated sequel to the iconic 2006 hit film, The Devil Wears Prada, is finally on its way! And we have all the juicy details for you. Donatella Versace, the legendary Italian designer and a name-dropped favorite of Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) in the original movie, was spotted on set in Milan, looking every inch the style icon that she is.
The 70-year-old fashion mogul was seen chatting with crew members as she took a break from filming her scenes. Her outfit? A show-stopping bold blue suit that had everyone talking! Paired with brown sunglasses and a relaxed attitude, Donatella looked like she was sipping champagne on the French Riviera rather than working hard on the set of The Devil Wears Prada 2.
But the real star of the show was Anne Hathaway, reprising her role as the hapless but lovable Andrea Sachs. The Oscar-winning actress, 42, turned heads in a stunning red leather trench coat, which she wore over a shimmering silver trouser suit that left little to the imagination. Adding some extra glamour with a black cap and tinted shades, Anne looked like a million bucks as she strutted down the street.
And what's an Anna Wintour-inspired character without a mini red leather bag and some killer stilettos? That's exactly what Anne was rocking, adding inches to her already impressive frame as she walked alongside co-star Emily Blunt, 42. Yes, you read that right – Emily Blunt is back on board for the sequel, playing the role of Emily Charlton, Miranda Priestly's former assistant turned luxury label executive.
But what can we expect from the plot? Well, according to insiders, The Devil Wears Prada 2 will follow Miranda Priestly as she navigates the challenges facing print magazines in today's digital age. And who better to turn to than Emily Charlton herself? With her high-flying career at a luxury label and her expertise in securing those all-important advertising deals, it's the perfect time for Miranda to seek her advice.
Of course, there are rumors that the sequel will explore some of the challenges facing print magazines today, including declining circulation numbers and the rise of social media. But one thing's for sure – with Emily Charlton at the helm, Miranda Priestly is in good hands.
But what about the original movie? Well, let's just say it was a cultural phenomenon that cemented itself as one of the defining comedies of the 2000s. Meryl Streep's iconic performance as Miranda Priestly earned her two Academy Award nominations (including Best Actress) and a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy.
And let's not forget the impact it had on fashion lovers everywhere! The phrase "That's all" became an instant catchphrase, inspiring a generation of fashionistas to follow their dreams. Even Elton John got in on the action, penning the music for a stage adaptation that starred none other than Vanessa Williams as Miranda Priestly.
So what are we waiting for? The Devil Wears Prada 2 is set to hit theaters in May 2026 – exactly 20 years after the original movie became a box office smash. And with Donatella Versace, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt on board, it's going to be one wild ride!
