Get ready for a whole new set of fashion and drama in The Devil Wears Prada 2! The upcoming sequel to the beloved 2006 film has just added some big names to its cast, including Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, and Pauline Chalamet.
These stars will join the original cast members, such as Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci, who will reprise their iconic roles. The sequel is set to bring back all the high-powered action from the fictional world of Runway magazine.
Alongside these familiar faces, new talents like comedian Caleb Hearon, Broadway stars Helen J. Shen and Conrad Ricamora, and Tracie Thomas, who played Hathaway’s best friend Lily, will also be featured. Tibor Ravitz, who played the chairman of Runway’s parent company, is returning as well.

New and Returning Cast Members
One of the biggest surprises is Kenneth Branagh, who will play Miranda Priestly’s (Meryl Streep) husband, adding even more star power to the film. However, one fan-favorite from the first movie, Adrian Grenier (who played Nate Cooper), will not be returning for this sequel.
Despite plot details being kept secret for now, 20th Century Studios confirmed that production on The Devil Wears Prada 2 is already underway.
What’s the Movie About?
The first movie, released in 2006, was based on Lauren Weisberger’s book about her experience working as an assistant to Vogue editor Anna Wintour. It followed Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway), a recent college graduate who lands a job as Miranda Priestly’s assistant.
She struggles to balance her humble past with the demanding fashion world, making for a fast-paced and dramatic story.
As Andy faces challenges at work, she befriends Nigel Kipling (Stanley Tucci), the art director at Runway, and learns more about the cutthroat fashion industry.
