'The Devil Wears Prada 2' trailer drops: Miranda Priestly faces digital-era showdown

The final trailer for The Devil Wears Prada 2 is here. See Miranda Priestly face a digital media showdown with Andy and Emily. Release date May 2026.

"Miranda Priestly, once the unchallenged authority of print fashion media, is now seen grappling with declining industry influence."

Washington, April 7

The final trailer for 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' was released by the makers on Monday, offering a high-stakes glimpse into Miranda Priestly's struggle to stay relevant in a rapidly evolving, digital-first media landscape.

Nearly two decades after the original film's release, the sequel reunites its core cast Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci while introducing new faces, including Simone Ashley in a key supporting role.

Opening with the striking sounds of 'Runway,' an original track performed by Lady Gaga and Doechii, the trailer sets the tone for a story rooted in transformation and rivalry. Miranda Priestly, once the unchallenged authority of print fashion media, is now seen grappling with declining industry influence as she faces off against a powerful luxury conglomerate.

In earlier released trailers, Miranda appears to have no recollection of her former assistants Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway) and Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt) when they first encounter her again. This moment underscores both her character's icy persona and the passage of time since their formative experiences at Runway.

Andy returns as a confident senior journalist and the new Features Editor at Runway, while Emily has climbed the corporate ladder to become a formidable executive within a luxury group.

The trailer hints at a tense reunion, with sharp exchanges and high-fashion confrontations defining their renewed dynamic.

A standout addition is Simone Ashley, who plays a character named Amari. She is seen seated calmly beside Miranda in head-to-toe luxury.

The sequel also brings back Tracie Thoms and Tibor Feldman, while adding Kenneth Branagh and Patrick Brammall as love interests. New cast members include Lucy Liu, B.J. Novak, Justin Theroux, Lady Gaga, and Pauline Chalamet.

Notably, Adrian Grenier will not return.

Directed by David Frankel and written by Aline Brosh McKenna, the film reunites the original creative team alongside producer Wendy Finerman.

The first film was both a critical and commercial success, earning USD 326 million worldwide, according to Variety.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 is slated for a theatrical release on May 1, 2026.

Honestly, I have mixed feelings. Sequels after so many years rarely capture the original's magic. The plot about digital media vs print is interesting, but feels a bit late? The fashion industry moved on from that debate years ago. Hope they prove me wrong.

Seeing Simone Ashley in the cast is the best part for me! Representing South Asian talent in a major Hollywood sequel is fantastic. Can't wait to see her character Amari. She looks fierce sitting next to Miranda.

The trailer looks slick. The core theme of legacy vs. new-age disruption is universal. Reminds me of the challenges traditional Indian media houses faced when digital news and influencers took over. Miranda forgetting Andy and Emily? That's cold, even for her. Classic Miranda.

The fashion is going to be iconic, as always. But more than that, I'm curious about Andy's journey. From a confused assistant to a confident Features Editor – that's some serious career goals right there! 💼

Release in 2026? That's a long wait, yaar. But the cast is stellar. Stanley Tucci is back! That man steals every scene he's in. The original film's success was massive, so expectations are sky-high. Fingers crossed.
