Anne Hathaway Doesn’t Want A Devil Wears Prada Sequel
The actor’s co-star agrees.
While Anne Hathaway recently said she’d love to reunite with her Devil Wears Prada co-star Meryl Streep, fans shouldn’t expect a sequel to the 2006 film anytime soon.
The actor touched upon a potential follow-up in a new interview with Vanity Fair, clarifying that she isn’t keen on a Devil Wears Prada 2 since she prefers movies that aren’t set in the modern digital landscape.
“I’m just realizing this as I talk to you,” Hathaway said during her sit-down with the magazine. “I haven’t turned to my team and said, ‘Only send me movies that predate the personal computer revolution.’”
The actor made similar comments during a 2022 appearance on The View. “I just think that movie was in a different era,” she said when quizzed about a possible sequel. “Everything has gone so digital, and that movie centered around the concept of producing a physical thing.”
With that being said, she admitted it’s “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.”
Based on Lauren Weisberger’s 2003 novel, The Devil Wears Prada follows aspiring journalist Andrea “Andy” Sachs (Hathaway) who lands a job assisting Runway magazine’s notorious editor-in-chief, Miranda Priestly (Streep).
The Academy Award-nominated film also stars Emily Blunt as Miranda’s snarky first assistant, Emily Charlton. Discussing the likelihood of a sequel on the Happy Sad Confused podcast in February, Blunt disclosed that there’s “never” been any plans for another movie. “Sometimes things should be cherished and preserved in this bubble and it’s OK,” she said.
