Anne Hathaway is back in the spotlight as she begins filming for “The Devil Wears Prada 2” on the streets of New York City. The Oscar-winning actress reprises her role as aspiring journalist and personal assistant to Miranda Priestly, alongside returning original cast members Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, Stanley Tucci, Tracie Thoms, and Tibor Feldman.
The sequel, which marks a reunion for the cast and crew, is set to follow Miranda’s career amid the decline of magazine publishing. Hathaway’s character had quit Runway at the end of the original film, joining a New York City newspaper. The movie also introduces new cast members, including Kenneth Branagh as Miranda’s husband and Lucy Liu in an undisclosed role.
Filming took place in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood, with additional scenes shot this month at various locations in midtown. “The Devil Wears Prada 2” is expected to open theaters on May 1, 2026, from 20th Century Studios and Disney. The movie promises to be a thrilling reunion for fans of the original film, which grossed $326 million worldwide and earned Hathaway an Oscar nomination in 2007.
Hathaway expressed hesitation about making a sequel in the past, citing changes in media and the shift towards digital content. However, she now returns as Andy Sachs, navigating the challenges of her career and personal life amidst the changing publishing landscape.
