Alright girlies, gather round—this is not a drill. The Devil Wears Prada is officially getting a sequel, and we’re already clutching our lattes and emotionally preparing for the return of Miranda Priestly’s deadly glare. Nearly 20 years since we were first traumatised (and deeply inspired) by the cerulean monologue heard around the world, the Runway girls are back. Yes, Miranda, Andy, Emily, and Nigel are returning—alongside a few new scene-stealers that Gen Z will absolutely claim as their own.

So, what’s the tea?

As of July 2024, the fashion film to end all fashion films is confirmed for a sequel. Disney and 20th Century Studios are producing it. Cameras started rolling on 30 June 2025 in New York, and thanks to TikTok detectives and nosy fans with long lenses, we’ve already seen snippets of Anne Hathaway (Andy), Stanley Tucci (Nigel), and new cast members Simone Ashley and Pauline Chalamet on set.

Emily Blunt hasn’t been spotted yet (cue suspenseful music), but she’s reportedly in—and honestly, what is a Prada film without the original “I’m just one stomach flu away from my goal weight” queen?

Now let’s talk plot—what we think we know, anyway. Miranda’s empire (ahem, Runway Magazine) is apparently struggling in the new digital age, while Emily now works at a swanky luxury advertising agency. Power shift? Check. Prada heels on shaky ground? Also check. Andy’s role is still a bit mysterious, but if she’s still writing listicles for online media, we riot.

And no, Nate isn’t returning—so your emotional support rage can rest. We won’t be forced to watch that man question Andy’s ambition again in 2026.

Let’s talk new faces: alongside Ashley and Chalamet, Lucy Liu, B.J. Novak, Justin Theroux, and Tracie Thoms are set to join the cast. Social media’s already gone feral, turning every celebrity into a rumoured cast member (we’re still holding out for Anna Wintour to make a Prada-clad cameo again, tbh).

As for fashion? No official confirmation yet on whether Patricia Field is returning to costume-design our dreams, but she’s currently booked and busy with And Just Like That…. Devastating, we know. But fingers crossed she swings by with a rail of loaned couture. After all, she’s the reason the original film cost about $1 million in wardrobe alone.

The sequel is rumoured to be loosely inspired by the book Revenge Wears Prada, which sees Andy and Emily team up to launch a luxury bridal magazine—very 2013 Pinterest-core, but we’re into it. Disney hasn’t confirmed if that’s the exact plot, though, so take it with a designer grain of salt.

Release date: 1 May 2026.
Expectation level: Irrationally high.
