The first trailer for the highly anticipated sequel to 2006's The Devil Wears Prada dropped on February 2, revealing a major twist for one beloved character. Anne Hathaway returns as Andy Sachs, Meryl Streep reprises her role as formidable editor Miranda Priestly, and Emily Blunt is back as workplace nemesis Emily Charlton.
The trailer unveils that Andy has returned to Runway magazine, but in a dramatic turn of events, she is now features editor. This leaves Emily, who remains at the magazine, completely shocked, suggesting their rivalry is far from over. “You've changed. You're much more confident. You kept those eyebrows, though, didn't you?” Emily remarks during their first encounter.
Despite their previously close professional relationship, Miranda appears to have entirely forgotten Andy. As Andy enters the editor-in-chief's office, aide Nigel (Stanley Tucci) quips: “Well, look what T.J Maxx dragged in,” while Miranda looks on bewildered. “Sorry? Who is this? Do you know her? Do I know her?” she asks.
The sequel introduces new characters played by Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, and others. Tracie Thoms and Tibor Feldman return as Lily and Irv. The film is scheduled for release on May 1 in the UK.
