The Devil Wears Prada 2 Is Finally Here — And It’s Better Than the First One
The Devil Wears Prada 2 Is Finally Here — And It’s Better Than the First One
It’s been 20 years since Andy Sachs walked into Runway magazine, and now she’s back — and she’s running the whole damn thing. The Devil Wears Prada 2 officially hits Disney+ and Hulu on July 29, 2026, and honestly? This sequel has surprised everyone by actually being good.
The Full Cast Is Back — Plus Some Surprises
Meryl Streep returns as the legendary Miranda Priestly, and she hasn’t lost a step. Anne Hathaway is back as Andy, now a hardened magazine executive who has fully become the person she once mocked. But the real scene-stealer? Megan Thee Stallion joins the cast as a social media-savvy junior editor — yes, really — and she absolutely eats in her scenes.
Emily Blunt is also back as Emily, and Stanley Tucci returns as Nigel. The chemistry between this cast is undeniable. The sequel was written by Aline Brosh McKenna, who also wrote the original 2006 film, which explains why the tone is preserved so perfectly.
What Makes This Sequel Work
Where most legacy sequels stumble, The Devil Wears Prada 2 actually earns its existence. The film wisely moves Andy into Miranda’s position — literally — as the publishing world grapples with AI, TikTok, and the slow death of print. The fish-out-of-water dynamic is reversed: now Miranda watches from the sidelines as Andy navigates a completely transformed industry.
David Frankel, director of the original, returns to helm the sequel, lending it a visual and tonal continuity that many sequels lack. New cast members Lakeith Stanfield and Ayo Edebiri bring fresh energy to the ensemble, while cameos from real publishing-world figures will make fashion media insiders lose their minds.
Why You Should Watch This Weekend
If you’re a millennial who grew up quoting “that’s all” and “I’m just someone who is looking for a job,” this sequel delivers the nostalgia hit you’ve been waiting for. But it also stands on its own as a sharp, funny, and surprisingly heartfelt film about aging, reinvention, and whether you can ever really escape who you used to be.
The Devil Wears Prada 2 is streaming on Disney+ and Hulu starting July 29, 2026. No subscription? It also hits PVOD the same day.
