Puck first broke the news, revealing a storyline that follows Streep’s Miranda Priestly navigating the decline of traditional magazine publishing, while Blunt’s character, Emily Charlton, thrives in the luxury group industry.
While representatives for the actresses have yet to comment, scriptwriter Aline Brosh McKenna, director David Frankel, and producer Wendy Finerman are all reportedly in talks to return. However, the fate of Anne Hathaway’s potential reprisal as Andrea Sachs remains uncertain, as she expressed skepticism in a recent interview.

Fans of The Devil Wears Prada can look forward to more memorable moments from the cast, as they are slated to reunite at the SAG Awards. Finerman, the producer, reflected on the unconventional choice of casting Streep in the first film, emphasizing the unexpected humor she brought to the role.
