The Devil Wears Prada 2 drops its first teaser, reuniting Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway and teasing a fresh showdown between Miranda Priestly and Andy Sachs in the cutthroat fashion world. Sharpen the stilettos—fashion’s fiercest rivalry is back.

Well, that happened: The Devil Wears Prada 2 just dropped a quick teaser, and it basically exists to put Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway in the same elevator again. Honestly, that alone will sell half the tickets.

The teaser

Do we learn the plot? Not really. The clip is more of a vibe check. It builds to a reunion beat where Miranda Priestly greets her former assistant, cool as ever, with a one-liner that lands like a slap and a hug at the same time.

"Took you long enough."

So what is this sequel, actually?

Nearly two decades after the original, we are heading back to New York and the glossy halls of Runway Magazine with the core cast intact. The studio line is very much: the gang is back, the heels are higher, carry on. David Frankel, who directed the first film, is back behind the camera. Aline Brosh McKenna, who wrote the 2006 screenplay, penned this one too. If you are sensing a full-circle move, you are not wrong.

The Devil Wears Prada (2006) was adapted from Lauren Weisberger's 2003 novel and directed by Frankel. It starred Anne Hathaway as Andy Sachs, Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly, Emily Blunt as Emily Charlton, and Stanley Tucci as Nigel Kipling.

The read on the rollout

The teaser is deliberately stingy on story, which suggests they are saving the plot turns for a full trailer. For now, it is about the chemistry and the comeback. And yes, it looks like we are absolutely going back to Runway HQ for more withering glances and impossible deadlines. That part never goes out of style.
