The Devil Wears Prada 2 Opens TODAY — Meryl’s Back and the Reviews Are Glowing

Meryl Streep Devil Wears Prada

It’s been 20 years since The Devil Wears Prada, and life’s been moving at a “glacial pace” as we’ve waited for a sequel. There is no villainess quite like Mirand Priestly, and while we know our sheer incompetence would not interest her, we can’t help but be very excited to see what she’s up to today. Meryl Streep brought the iconic character to life in 2006, and on May 1, 2026, the ice queen’s back in all her glory for The Devil Wears Prada 2.

Meryl Streep Joins a Star-Studded Cast for “The Devil Wears Prada 2”

Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci are all back to reprise their roles in the much-anticipated sequel. The movie explores the rise of digital media and the decline of print journalism. Those who’ve already seen the film give Meryl Streep and The Devil Wears Prada think it’s worth a watch.

“We should relish every Streep performance. It’s been five years since she had a major role in a movie; a once constant joy of moviegoing has turned infrequent. I wouldn’t begrudge anyone who just wants to see her and these actors together again. But the movie, well stocked in Prada, could have used a bit more of Streep’s unflappable devil,” Jake Coyle with the Associated Press noted.

“The chemistry between the returning and new characters of Runway in The Devil Wears Prada 2 is spot-on, making the film feel cohesive, and it successfully tackles crucial issues of our modern era that are relevant for 2026,” according to Taylor Gates.

It sounds like if you loved Meryl Streep in the original The Devil Wears Prada, you’ll enjoy the sequel. We can’t wait.
