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.
