Andy Takes on a New Role as Features Editor in the Latest Trailer for ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2,’ Sparking Emily’s Jealousy
In a striking moment from the first trailer for The Devil Wears Prada 2, art director Nigel, portrayed by Stanley Tucci, quips, “Well, look what T.J. Maxx dragged in…” as Andy Sachs, played by Anne Hathaway, makes her return to Runway magazine. However, her former boss, Miranda Priestly, played by Meryl Streep, fails to recognize her, prompting Nigel to remind her, “She’s one of the Emilys.”
This latest trailer, set to the catchy opening notes of Madonna’s “Vogue,” follows a teaser released in November last year, which offered little in terms of plot details but hinted at the highly anticipated reunion between Hathaway and Streep. In this new glimpse, it becomes clear that Andy is rejoining the glossy magazine as its features editor.
In a brief 30-second preview shared by the studio earlier today, viewers enjoy a witty exchange between Hathaway’s Andy and her former work rival, portrayed by Emily Blunt. In a cheeky remark, Blunt’s character observes, “You’ve changed. You’re much more confident. You kept those eyebrows, though, didn’t you?”
Watch on Deadline
The original The Devil Wears Prada, based on Lauren Weisberger’s 2003 novel and released in 2006, follows a recent journalism graduate, Andy, who secures a challenging job as the junior assistant to the formidable Miranda Priestly, the editor-in-chief of a high-fashion magazine—a position that many would covet.
The Devil Wears Prada 2 is set to hit theaters on May 1. Alongside Tucci, Tracie Thoms and Tibor Feldman reprise their roles, with new cast members including Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, Pauline Chalamet, Rachel Bloom, Patrick Brammall, and Lady Gaga.
Director David Frankel and writer Aline Brosh McKenna return to their roles, with producers Wendy Finerman and Karen Rosenfelt overseeing the follow-up. This sequel is expected to explore Miranda’s perspective as she navigates the challenges facing the declining print industry.
