Meryl Streep reprises her role as Miranda Priestly in ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2‘, breathing new life into the iconic world of fashion.
Nearly 20 years after the original film, Meryl Streep returns to portray the formidable Miranda Priestly in ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2‘. The legendary actress was spotted on set in New York City, looking identical to her iconic character – with the same sophisticated style and commanding presence that captivated audiences in 2006.

The sequel, officially confirmed in July 2024, has sparked major excitement among fans of the fashion-forward cinematic classic. The story picks up with Miranda Priestly, the powerful editor-in-chief of the fictional Runway magazine, and Andy Sachs, the young assistant who once struggled to navigate the demanding world of high fashion journalism. This time, the film explores how the industry has evolved nearly two decades later, as the characters face new challenges in a glamorous and fiercely competitive environment.
In recently released images, Meryl Streep appears with Miranda’s signature short white haircut, dressed in a modern outfit featuring a khaki coat, brown pencil skirt and purple blouse, paired with elegant accessories including dark sunglasses and high heels — reaffirming her unyielding style. The production has also confirmed the return of Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci in their original roles, ensuring continuity and a strong connection to the first film.

Filming has drawn attention not only for the return of its stars, but also for the promised evolution in its portrayal of fashion and journalism. Anne Hathaway has shared behind-the-scenes images on social media, offering glimpses of the sequel’s updated tone and aesthetic. The new film aims not just to recapture the magic of the original story, but also to engage a new generation of viewers.
‘The Devil Wears Prada 2‘ is set for release on 1 May 2026, and is already shaping up to be one of the most eagerly awaited premieres of the year. Film and fashion lovers alike can look forward to the perfect blend of drama, style, and unforgettable performances — with Meryl Streep leading the return of Miranda Priestly to the big screen. This comeback is set to further cement the legacy of one of the most influential films in pop culture and fashion history.
