Returning from the 2006 original are Tracie Thoms (who played Andy’s best friend Lily) and Tibor Feldman (Runway’s parent company chairman). Meanwhile, Bridgerton star Simone Ashley has signed on for a mystery role, and Kenneth Branagh will portray Miranda Priestly’s (Streep) husband. However, Adrian Grenier, who played Andy’s boyfriend Nate, is not expected to return.
The first film, adapted from Lauren Weisberger’s bestselling novel, was loosely inspired by her time as assistant to former Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour. It became an instant pop culture classic after its 2006 release, earning Oscar nods and cementing iconic status for its cast — and Miranda Priestly’s icy stare.
Though plot details remain a tightly guarded secret, 20th Century Studios confirmed that filming has begun, and the sequel is set to arrive in theaters on May 1, 2026.
With a mix of seasoned stars and fresh faces, the Devil Wears Prada sequel promises a new chapter of high heels, sharp wit, and cerulean power plays.
