The Devil Wears Prada sequel is finally happening 

Gird your loins! Eighteen years later, The Devil Wears Prada is finally getting a sequel. According to Puck‘s Lauren Sherman, the project has confirmed Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt’s return as Miranda Priestly and Emily, respectively—though there’s no mention yet of Anne Hathaway’s return as Andrea Sachs. As for the plot? The new film, produced by Wendy Finerman and written by Aline Brosh McKenna, will reportedly follow Miranda as she faces the complications of modern magazine publishing, as well as Emily—who’s now the head of a luxury brand group Miranda needs advertising funds from. The news also follows the first previews of Elton John’s The Devil Wears Prada musical starring Vanessa Williams in Plymouth, England, before its October opening on West End. That’s all!
