Lead cast of 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' breaks silence on possible sequel

Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt discuss the possibility of a third 'Devil Wears Prada' film, emphasizing the need for a perfect script.

"It's got to be the core four - Emily Blunt"

Los Angeles, May 3

Hollywood actresses Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt, who are leading at the box-office with their recently released film, 'The Devil Wears Prada 2', recently discussed the possibility of the 3rd film in the franchise.

Meryl Streep, 76, said that the script has to be perfect for a possible return to the 3rd part of the franchise, reports 'People' magazine.

Emily Blunt, 43, concurred, "A good script. It's all about the script".

Anne Hathaway told 'People', "And then, everybody has to say yes". Emily Blunt said, "It's got to be the core four (the three actresses plus returning cast member Stanley Tucci, who happens to be married to Emily Blunt's sister, Felicity Blunt.)".

The new film sees Meryl Streep return as the iconic editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly, reuniting with Anne Hathaway's Andy Sachs, now Runway's newly appointed features editor. Together, the pair must work to woo Priestly's former assistant Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt), now running Dior's U.S. operations, for ad dollars.

As per 'People', the 3 actresses reflected on revisiting their characters all these years later.

Anne Hathaway said, "The thing that struck me was that when we made the first one, I was just a 22-year-old mess. I mean, I'm in such a different phase of my life. I'm really lucky. I found someone that I love so much (husband Adam Shulman). We've been married for 17 years. We've got two kids. I just feel like my life is in a much more complete and whole place. I felt so lost when I was 22, which really worked for the character".

For Meryl Streep, the experience was "kind of easy". She shared, "I think you keep these characters. I liked discovering (Miranda) again."

Emily Blunt said, "You are sort of fused with this person you're playing. Listen, I love playing this lunatic. I had a lot of fun slithering back into her shoes".

'The Devil Wears Prada 2' is currently playing in cinemas.

Meryl Streep saying the script has to be "perfect" shows she still has high standards. Honestly, that's what made the first film so great. Hope they don't rush into a third just for money. Quality over quantity, yaar.

Anne Hathaway's reflection on being a 22-year-old mess really hit home. It's so relatable how life changes over the years. Also, her marriage lasting 17 years in Hollywood? That's rare and beautiful! ❤️

Not a fan of sequels usually, but this one sounds promising. The dynamic between Miranda and Andy has so much more depth now that Andy is a features editor. Curious to see how Emily Charlton fits in as the Dior executive. 👍

I appreciate Meryl Streep's approach—no point making a third film just for the sake of it. But honestly, if the script is as sharp as the first one, it could be a masterpiece. Also, nice to see Stanley Tucci returning! He was brilliant in the original.

As someone who's never been a big fan of fashion films, this franchise still manages to entertain. The cast's chemistry is undeniable. Emily Blunt saying she loves playing a "lunatic" made me laugh—she really owns that role!
