Production Begins on Devil Wears Prada 2 in New York, Italy

Production has officially begun on "The Devil Wears Prada 2," twenty years after the original film was released, with filming taking place in New York and Italy. The sequel will see the return of Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci, with Kenneth Branagh joining the cast as Miranda Priestly's husband. The story follows Miranda Priestly, still head of Runway magazine, facing challenges as the publishing industry declines, while Blunt's character has become an executive at a luxury brand that advertises with Runway. Aline Brosh McKenna, who wrote the original screenplay, returns to script the sequel, and producer Wendy Finerman is also involved. The original 2006 film, based on Lauren Weisberger's novel, was a critical and commercial success, grossing $326 million worldwide and earning Streep an Oscar nomination for her iconic role. Fans can expect the sequel to continue exploring the high-stakes world of fashion and publishing with a mix of returning cast and new dynamics.
