Meryl Streep Confirms Miranda’s Return in ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ Sequel

Meryl Streep is on board for The Devil Wears Prada sequel.

The star of the 2006 film took to social media to share a post in which she confirmed she is reprising her role as Miranda Priestly.

“Miranda will return,” read the caption on Instagram.

Earlier this week, Deadline reported that Disney was developing a sequel to The Devil Wears Prada, which starred Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt. Aline Brosh McKenna was tapped to write the script.

The 2006 film, directed by David Frankel, is based on the Lauren Weisberger novel of the same name. It centers around a fashion magazine editor, Miranda Priestly, played by Streep. Hathaway plays Andy, a college graduate looking for an opportunity who becomes Miranda’s second assistant. The Devil Wears Prada also starred Stanley Tucci, Simon Baker, Adrian Grenier, and more.

In 2022, Hathaway was skeptical about a sequel getting made but did ponder on what the characters would be up to now.

“It is tempting to think about Andy and Emily needing to get Miranda her coffee and she’s somewhere in Europe. And then along the way they pick up Stanley Tucci in Italy, who’s at a restaurant. It’s tempting but I don’t think it’s going to happen,” Hathaway said in an interview on The View in 2022.

Earlier this year at the SAG Awards, there was a Devil Wears Prada reunion with Streep, Hathaway, and Blunt taking the stage to present the night’s first award.
