Fashion, drama, and sharp wit are back in style. Disney has unveiled the first full trailer for The Devil Wears Prada 2, and fans are already declaring a full-blown cinematic comeback.
The long-awaited sequel brings back the film’s iconic core cast, with Anne Hathaway returning as Andy Sachs and Meryl Streep once again stepping into the legendary heels of Miranda Priestly. Also making their return are Stanley Tucci as the ever-sarcastic Nigel and Emily Blunt as the unforgettable Emily.
Andy’s Unexpected Return to Runway
The trailer reveals a major twist: Andy is heading back to Runway magazine — but not as an assistant this time. She’s joining the publication as a features editor, signaling a dramatic shift in power dynamics and reopening unresolved tensions from the past.
Miranda, however, seems completely unfazed. In classic fashion, she behaves as though Andy barely exists in her memory — or perhaps never did at all. Even the names of her former assistants appear to be beneath recall, a detail that has sparked plenty of debate among viewers.
Miranda’s Memory… or Masterclass?
One of the trailer’s most talked-about moments is Miranda’s apparent inability (or refusal) to recognize Andy and Emily. Fans are split: Is Miranda deliberately pretending not to remember them as a subtle power play, or is she simply too important to care?
Many viewers argue the latter fits perfectly with her character. As one fan commented, the events of the first film may have been nothing more than a footnote in Miranda’s world.
Fashion, Music, and Pure Nostalgia
Quick-fire scenes tease glamorous runway moments, tense office exchanges, and even a carefree glimpse of Andy dancing outside a restaurant — a sharp contrast to her formerly buttoned-up persona. The entire trailer is set to Madonna’s “Vogue,” a perfectly chosen soundtrack that amplifies the fashion-forward energy and nostalgic appeal.
Fans React: Excitement Meets Anxiety
Online reactions have been explosive. Comments like “Cinema is back” and “This is how trailers should be done” flood social media, praising the balance between nostalgia and mystery.
That said, not everyone is carefree. Some longtime fans are voicing cautious optimism, hoping the sequel lives up to the original’s legacy rather than diluting it.
A Star-Studded New Lineup
Alongside the returning cast, The Devil Wears Prada 2 introduces an impressive list of new faces, including Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, Lady Gaga, Sydney Sweeney, and Donatella Versace. Several of these high-profile names are rumored to be appearing as themselves, blurring the line between fashion fiction and reality.
Release Date and Where to Watch
The Devil Wears Prada 2 is set to hit theaters on May 1, while the original film is currently available to stream on Disney+, making now the perfect time for a rewatch.
Whether the sequel becomes a modern classic or a bold fashion gamble, one thing is clear: Runway is back — and the world is watching.
