Screenplay and production: The sequel is said to be based on the 2013 novel “Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns” by Lauren Weisberger.

Currently, the original film’s screenwriter is in talks to return to write the sequel.

Cast: Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt have expressed interest and are willing to reprise their roles. However, Anne Hathaway, who starred in the first film, has not yet confirmed her participation.

Although the project is in the early stages of development and no official release date has been announced, the actors and production team’s interest in the sequel suggests that it is likely to happen.

The Background“The Devil Wears Prada 2” (2025) of

1. The Shift of the Fashion Industry from Print to Digital
In the first film (The Devil Wears Prada – 2006), Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) is the powerful editor-in-chief of Runway magazine, representing the pinnacle of the fashion publishing industry. At that time, print magazines were still the “bible” of the industry, shaping trends and deciding who had a say in the fashion world.

However, 20 years have passed and the fashion industry has changed significantly:

The decline of print magazines: Famous fashion publications such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar or Elle are struggling to maintain their position as readers gradually move to digital platforms.
The Rise of Social Media: Instagram, TikTok and other platforms are changing the way consumers access fashion, as influencers and KOLs (Key Opinion Leaders) become increasingly influential.

Fast Fashion vs. Haute Couture: Luxury brands are competing with low-cost but fast-moving brands like Zara, Shein and H&M.

In The Devil Wears Prada 2, Miranda Priestly may face great pressure from this change. Will runway continue with its traditional model, or must it transform to survive in the digital age? Will Miranda, once a symbol of power and conservatism, adapt or be replaced by a new generation of leaders?

2. Conflict between the old and new generations in the fashion media industry
If in season 1, Miranda Priestly was the model of a traditional magazine editor, then in season 2, she may have to confront new forces in the industry:

Young successors: Perhaps a new, young, social media-savvy character will threaten Miranda’s position, forcing her to prove that her experience and authority are still valuable.
Competition from digital platforms: Digital magazines like The Business of Fashion or Hypebeast are redefining how fashion is reported. How will Miranda cope when Runway no longer holds the monopoly?
The emergence of influencers: A fashion blogger or TikToker could become an influencer on par with Miranda, creating a war between traditional journalism and digital content.
3. The Return of Andy Sachs and Emily Charlton
Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway) in a New Role: In the first part, Andy left Runway to pursue a serious journalism career. If she returns, she could be a successful journalist, standing on the boundary between tradition and modernity, drawn into the conflict between Miranda and the new generation.
Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt) rises to power: The once-snarky assistant could now be a powerful figure in the industry, either on Miranda’s side or even her rival.
4. Miranda Priestly – Can the Queen of Fashion Still Hold the Throne?

Although a symbol of power, Miranda Priestly is now old. In the rapidly changing world of fashion, can she still maintain her position, or will she be forced to make way for a new generation of leaders? The struggle between the “old generation” (Miranda) and the “new generation” (digital age, influencers, artificial intelligence in fashion) could be the focus of The Devil Wears Prada 2.

If the sequel explores this theme deeply, it will not only be an entertaining work but also a true reflection of the changing fashion and media industry. The Devil Wears Prada 2 has the potential to be a film that is not only attractive in terms of fashion but also has a strong social element, raising questions about innovation, adaptation and power in the digital age.
