There are rumors of a Devil Wears Prada sequel, and you think this has nothing to do with you? You’re scrolling through streamers and you select… I don’t know, the 2006 film because you’re trying to tell the world that you love women’s stories and know that Adrian Grenier was the real villain of the movie. But what you don’t know is that Puck reported that a sequel is in the works. You’re also blithely unaware of the fact that original screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna is set to write the script, and according to EW, original director David Frankel will return too.
And then I think it was Meryl Streep, wasn’t it, who is reportedly set to return? I think we need a Meryl Streep here. And then the rest of the OG principal cast — Anne Hatthaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci — are coming back too. And then the plot is rumored to center on Priestly as she navigates the death of the fashion magazine.
And the news has now trickled down to some tragic blog, which you, no doubt, clicked out of mild interest. However, this news represents millions of dollars and countless jobs. And it’s sort of comical how the news broke right after Vanessa Williams’ take on Miranda Priestly was teased on the West End over 4th of July weekend.
