Anne Hathaway confirms Devil Wears Prada 2 is in production with a playful nod to original

Daily Mail​4 days ago
It looks like The Devil Wears Prada is back —and so is Andy Sachs.
On Monday, July 21, Anne Hathaway sent the internet into a frenzy with a brief but unmistakable TikTok video teasing her return to the world of Runway magazine.
The 42-year-old actress, beloved for her role in the 2006 cult fashion film, shared a cheeky six-second clip that had fans screaming one thing: cerulean.
In the video, Hathaway is seen hurriedly getting ready, this time brushing her teeth with an electric toothbrush, a modern upgrade from Andy's manual one in the original film's memorable job interview scene.
But it was her outfit that truly sent her followers spiraling.
The mother-of-two appeared to be wearing none other than a cerulean blue sweater—yes, the very color that Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) famously dissected in a now-legendary monologue.
'Heading to werk #dwp2,' the Oscar winner captioned the video, wearing the same shade that became the centerpiece of one of film's most unforgettable monologues.
In the original film, Andy finds herself chuckling during a Runway fashion meeting, only to be eviscerated by her boss.
'I see, you think this has nothing to do with you,' Priestly says. 'You go to your closet and you select, I don't know that lumpy blue sweater, for instance, because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back.
She continues: 'But what you don't know is that that sweater is not just blue, it's not turquoise, it's not lapis, it's actually cerulean.'
'Then it trickled down into some tragic, casual corner where you fished it out of some clearance bin,' Priestly concludes. 'That blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs, and it's sort of comical how you think you've made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry.'
The brief clip quickly exploded online, with commenters quoting Miranda's epic takedown of Andy's supposed fashion indifference.
Another confessed they felt 'like a kid waiting for Christmas for Devil Wears Prada SEQUEL!!!!'

'EVERYBODY STAY CALM ITS HAPPENING,' a third wrote.
Just hours later, Hathaway was spotted on set of the The Devil Wears Prada 2 wearing a white T-shirt under a black vest and a long light-wash denim skirt.
She completed the look with black sunglasses and wore her long hair in soft, loose waves.
True to her character, the actress held onto a folded newspaper, seemingly indicating Andy has remained in the world of journalism.
Her noticeably more chic ensemble also seemed to signal Andy has matured since her days as a fresh-faced personal assistant, almost 20 years ago.
Hathaway's wink to the fashion-forward film comes just weeks after confirmation that The Devil Wears Prada 2 is officially in development, with Streep, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci all set to reprise their roles.

Joining them in the sequel are new cast members Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, and Pauline Chalamet.
According to early reports, the story will explore Miranda Priestly (Streep)'s struggle to stay relevant in an industry now dominated by digital media and declining print magazines.
Meanwhile, Blunt's character, Emily Charlton, has climbed the corporate ladder and now holds the power Miranda needs—setting the stage for a delicious clash of ambition, loyalty, and fashion politics.
While plot details are still under wraps, sources suggest the film may draw inspiration from Lauren Weisberger's 2013 novel Revenge Wears Prada, which follows Andy's post-Runway life as she becomes a magazine editor, only to find Miranda crashing back into her world.
The Devil Wears Prada 2 is slated to hit theaters on May 1, 2026, marking two decades since the original film strutted into pop culture history.

Jessica Alba seeks 'mystic guidance' amid her hot new romance with Danny Ramirez

Jessica Alba is getting grounded — with a little help from the power of crystals — as her steamy new romance with Top Gun: Maverick star Danny Ramirez continues to sizzle. The 44-year-old actress, who's long embraced the holistic uses of stones like quartz and amethyst, was spotted Thursday browsing for spiritual reinforcements at KM Crystals in Venice Beach. Dressed down in a white tank and matching shorts, Jessica kept a low profile in a baseball cap as she exited the trendy wellness boutique, which boasts on its website, 'We create an atmosphere that helps uplift your internal state so that you'll feel more at home the moment you walk through our door.' Alba doubled down on her love of crystals in a 2021 Instagram post, sharing a photo of herself clutching a massive purple amethyst and writing, 'Let's be real—I've always been into collecting crystals. They are powerful and healing in their own unique ways and I've found that they help me keep my mind right by making me feel more grounded and connected to myself.' The Honey star also gushed about her crystal collection in a 2020 interview with New Beauty, saying, 'I love crystals—they hold so much power and energy.' Now, with a new man in her life, it looks like Jessica is stocking up on good vibes. The crystal shopping spree comes just one day after Alba and Ramirez were spotted getting cozy over a romantic Italian dinner on Wednesday night — further fueling buzz around their budding relationship. Jessica rode shotgun as her 32-year-old boyfriend carefully pulled the car away, eyes fixed on the road ahead. But the couple couldn't stop smiling as they left together, looking more loved-up than ever. What began as a low-key relationship is now showing signs of evolving into something deeper, despite Alba's initial hesitation. A source told 'Jessica's romance with Danny has taken a surprising turn. What started out as a summer fling feels like it's getting more serious, although she still wants to take things slow. 'But at the end of the day Jessica has never been one to play the field. She's excited to see where this romance is headed.' Jessica officially confirmed her split from husband Cash Warren, 46, in January, after weeks of mounting speculation. The former couple—who met on the set of Fantastic Four in 2004 and tied the knot in 2008—filed for divorce in February, though the proceedings remain ongoing. They share three children: daughters Honor, 17, and Haven, 13, and son Hayes, 7. Alba's rumored romance with Ramirez, 11 years her junior, first made waves when the two jetted off to Cancun earlier this month. Their tropical getaway came just two months after Jessica was seen 'kissing' a mystery man in London—though it's still unclear whether that man was Danny. How the two met remains a mystery, but an insider previously told that while Danny has been 'enamored' with the actress, she's been hesitant to commit. 'Danny is cool, a nice guy and he is enamored with her, but it is not exclusive,' the source said earlier this month. 'She's not in that frame of mind. He has a chance to make something out of their connection, but she is taking it all in stride. Right now, she's looking to just have fun.' Ramirez, originally from Chicago, is best known for playing Joaquin Torres—aka the new Falcon—in Marvel's The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and the upcoming Captain America: Brave New World. He also appeared as Lt. Mickey Garcia in Top Gun: Maverick, and is currently filming Avengers: Doomsday, slated for release on December 18, 2026.

Hulk Hogan descended upon American culture at exactly the time it was ready for him: the 1980s

The opening chords of Rick Derringer's hard-rock guitar would play over the arena sound system. Instantly, 20,000 Hulkamaniacs — and many more as wrestling's popularity and stadium size exploded — rose to their feet in a frenzy to catch a glimpse of Hulk Hogan storming toward the ring. His T-shirt half-ripped, his bandanna gripped in his teeth, Hogan faced 'em all in the 1980s — the bad guys from Russia and Iran and any other wrestler from a country that seemed to pose a threat to both his WWF championship and, of course, could bring harm to the red, white and blue. His 24-inch pythons slicked in oil, glistening under the house lights, Hogan would point to his next foe — say 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper or Jake 'The Snake' Roberts (rule of thumb: In the 80s, the more quote marks in a name, the meaner the wrestler) — all to the strain of Derringer's patriotic 'Real American.' In Ronald Reagan's 1980s slice of wishful-thinking Americana, no one embodied the vision of a 'real American' like Hulk Hogan. 'We had Gorgeous George and we had Buddy Rogers and we had Bruno Sammartino,' WWE Hall of Famer Sgt. Slaughter said Friday. 'But nobody compared at that time compared to Hulk Hogan. His whole desire was to be a star and be somebody that nobody every forgot. He pretty much did that.' He saw himself as an all-American hero Hogan, who died Thursday in Florida at age 71, portrayed himself as an all-American hero, a term that itself implies a stereotype. He was Sylvester Stallone meets John Wayne in tights — only fans could actually touch him and smell the sweat if the WWF came to town. Hogan presented as virtuous. He waved the American flag, never cheated to win, made sure 'good' always triumphed over 'evil.' He implored kids around the world: 'Train, say your prayers, eat your vitamins." Hogan did it all, hosting 'Saturday Night Live,' making movies, granting Make-A-Wish visits, even as he often strayed far from the advice that made him a 6-foot-8, 300-plus pound cash cow and one of the world's most recognizable entertainers. His muscles looked like basketballs, his promos electrified audiences — why was he yelling!?! — and he fabricated and embellished stories from his personal life all as he morphed into the personification of the 80s and 80s culture and excess. In the not-so-real world of professional wrestling, Hulk Hogan banked on fans believing in his authenticity. That belief made him the biggest star the genre has ever known. Outside the ring, the man born Terry Gene Bollea wrestled with his own good guy/bad guy dynamic, a messy life that eventually bled beyond the curtain, spilled into tabloid fodder and polluted the final years of his life. Hogan — who teamed with actor Mr. T in the first WrestleMania — was branded a racist. He was embroiled in a sex-tape scandal. He claimed he once contemplated suicide. All this came well after he admitted he burst into wrestling stardom not on a strict diet of workouts and vitamins, but of performance-enhancing drugs, notably steroids. The punches, the training, the grueling around-the-world travel were all real (the outcomes, of course, were not). So was the pain that followed Hogan as he was temporarily banished from WWE in his later years. He was the flawed hero of a flawed sport, and eventually not even wrestling fans, like a bad referee, could turn a blind eye to Hogan's discretions. His last appearance fizzled Hogan's final WWE appearance came this past January at the company's debut episode on Netflix. Hogan arrived months after he appeared at the Republican National Convention and gave a rousing speech -- not unlike his best 1980s promos -- in support of Donald Trump. Just a pair of the 1980s icons, who used tough talk and the perceived notion they could both 'tell it like it is,' to rise to the top. Only wrestling fans, especially one in the home of the Los Angeles event, had enough of Hogan. 'He was full-throated, it wasn't subtle, his support for Donald Trump,' said ESPN writer Marc Raimondi, who wrote the wrestling book 'Say Hello to the Bad Guys." 'I think that absolutely hurt him.' He didn't appear for an exercise in nostalgia or a vow that if he could just lace up the boots one more time, he could take down today's heels. No, Hogan came to promote his beer. Beer loosely coded as right-wing beer. No song was going to save him this time. Fed up with his perceived MAGA ties and divisive views, his racist past and a string of bad decisions that made some of today's stars also publicly turn on him, Hogan was about booed out of the building. This wasn't the good kind of wrestling booing, like what he wanted to hear when he got a second act in the 1990s as 'Hollywood' Hulk Hogan when controversy equaled cash. This was go-away heat. 'I think the politics had a whole lot to do with it,' Hogan said on 'The Pat McAfee Show' in February. Hogan always envisioned himself as the Babe Ruth of wrestling. On the back of Vince McMahon, now entangled in his own sordid sex scandal, Hogan turned a staid one-hour Saturday morning show into the land of NFL arenas, cable TV, pay-per-view blockbusters, and eventually, billon-dollar streaming deals. Once raised to the loftiest perch in sports and entertainment by fans who ate up everything the Hulkster had to say, his final, dismal appearance showed that even Hulk Hogan could take a loss. 'The guy who had been the master at getting what he wanted from the crowd for decades, he lost his touch,' Raimondi said. 'Very likely because of the things he did in his personal and professional life.' But there was a time when Hogan had it all. The fame. The championships. Riches and endorsements. All of it not from being himself, but by being Hulk Hogan. 'There's people in this business that become legends," Sgt. Slaughter said. 'But Hulk became legendary.'

Secrets of South Park Trump-Epstein episode that will further anger the White House

Top brass at the entertainment conglomerate that airs South Park signed off on a controversial episode of the series that viciously mocked President Donald Trump while linking him to Jeffrey Epstein. Comedy Central owner Paramount Global's three co-CEOs all the watched the show's no-holds-barred season 27 premiere, which featured Trump in bed with Satan and a deepfake of the president wandering nude in the desert, Puck News reported. Chris McCarthy, George Cheeks, and Brian Robbins were leaning toward airing it before running by their boss, Paramount heiress Shari Redstone. Redstone reportedly didn't watch the episode but 'trusted [the executives'] judgment and would support their decision,' Puck News reported. The trio concluded it was OK, despite the episode taking on Paramount's $16 million settlement with Trump over a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris and CBS canceling the Late Show with Stephen Colbert. The episode scandalously showed Trump in bed with Satan and later featured a deepfake of the president stripping down and bearing his 'teeny-tiny' penis. South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker ultimately agreed to edit the scene, which showed an AI-generated depiction of a sweaty and nude Trump in the desert. On Thursday, the creators revealed how they battled with the network over the decision to show Trump's penis in the scene. On Thursday, the creators revealed how they battled with the network over the decision to show Trump's penis in the scene 'Trump: His penis is teeny-tiny, but his love for us is large,' flashes a line on screen. Parker explained how executives reacted. 'They're like, "OK, but we're gonna blur the penis,"' Parker recalled. 'I'm like, "No, you're not gonna blur the penis."' Stone added, '[So] we put eyes on the penis.' 'If we put eyes on the penis, we won't blur it. And then that was a whole conversation for about four f**king days,' Parker explained. 'It's a character.' The White House issued a scathing statement in response. 'This show hasn't been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention,' a portion read. The episode saw the president threaten the town South Park with an endless array of lawsuits. The threats were a clear reference to Trump's recent suits against ABC, The Wall Street Journal, and even Paramount, which some have criticized as baseless. Paramount found itself on Parker and Stone's bad side earlier this year, after it blocked a $1 billion deal Stone and Parker previously had with Paramount and HBO Max that would have allowed both platforms to air their series. Stone and Parker - known for standing up to networks and censors - said no, claiming Skydance boss David Ellison was trying to lower the market value of their show. The creators then secured a $1.5-billion exclusive streaming deal with Paramount this week. The deal also confirms 50 new episodes that will air on Comedy Central and stream exclusively on Paramount Plus over five years. The new season was originally slated to start July 9, but was delayed two weeks due to complications from the then ongoing merger.
