"the scene was later removed during editing - Variety"

New York, April 22

Sydney Sweeney was originally set to appear in the highly-awaited 'The Devil Wears Prada 2', but her cameo was ultimately removed during the final edit, according to Variety.

As per Variety, reports suggest that Sydney had filmed a scene near the beginning of the movie where she played herself. In the sequence, Emily Blunt's character Emily Charlton, now leading Dior's U.S. operations, is seen styling her for an event. However, the scene was later removed during editing.

Another role that was reportedly cut from the final version was actor Conrad Ricamora, who had been cast as Andy's roommate. Reports, as per Variety, suggest that the character did not test well with audiences, who questioned why Andy needed a roommate. The film now shows Andy spending more time with the character played by Tracie Thoms.

The sequel recently premiered in New York. It features several big names and special appearances from the fashion and entertainment world. Lady Gaga appears in the film and has also recorded a track titled 'Runway' with Doechii for the soundtrack.

Donatella Versace also filmed a cameo in Milan, while supermodel Naomi Campbell appears in a scene shot during Milan Fashion Week.

Directed by David Frankel and written by Aline Brosh McKenna, the film reunites the original creative team. It also stars Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, and B.J. Novak, along with returning cast members Tracie Thoms and Tibor Feldman.

Backed by 20th Century Studios, 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' is set to release in India on May 1, 2026.

Interesting that they cut Sydney Sweeney. Maybe the scene felt like forced celebrity placement? Sometimes less is more. The cast still looks stellar with Simone Ashley and Lucy Liu! 🎬

As a film buff, I respect the editing choice. If a scene doesn't serve the story or test audiences find it odd (like Andy's roommate), it should go. The final product is what matters. Can't wait for 2026!

Lady Gaga AND Naomi Campbell? The fashion quotient is through the roof! Sydney Sweeney is great, but with so many cameos, the edit must have been tight. Hope the final flow is smooth.

Releasing here on Labour Day 2026! Smart. A holiday release should help. A bit sad for the actors whose parts were cut, must be disappointing after all the work. But hey, that's showbiz.

The original team is back! That's the real news for me. David Frankel and Aline Brosh McKenna know these characters. Trust them to make the right cuts, even if it means losing a big name like Sweeney.
