The Devil Wears Prada 2 is officially under way. Here's everything we know
It has been nearly two decades since icy fashion magazine editor Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) sneered at a cerulean sweater and made the life of her new fashion-clueless assistant Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway) a living hell. Now, the two characters are preparing for a return, along with several other familiar faces and Oscar winner Kenneth Branagh.
The film's distributor, 20th Century Studios, announced its production on Tuesday with a teaser featuring pitchfork-heeled red pumps and iconic lines from the original, including Priestly's famously dismissive 'that's all'.
Alright, everyone, gird your loins. Here's everything we know about the sequel so far.
What will it be about?
The original film, which premiered in 2006 and was based on the novel by Lauren Weisberger, saw recent university graduate Sachs take a job as an assistant to the ice queen Priestly, editor of high fashion magazine Runway. Sachs quickly realises she is completely out of her depth, especially given the lack of support from fellow assistant Emily (Emily Blunt).
The sequel will reportedly see Priestly struggle against the decline of the magazine industry, eventually forcing her to make amends with her former assistant Emily who has become the head of a luxury brand that advertises with Runway.
Will Meryl and Anne return?

Brad Pitt's beloved mum Jane dies aged 84
Hollywood megastar Brad Pitt is mourning the loss of his mother Jane Etta, who has died aged 84. Her family confirmed she had passed away peacefully on August 5. A spokesperson for 61-year-old Oscar-winner Pitt has not yet commented. Jane, a former counsellor, raised three children including Brad with her husband, William, in Springfield, Missouri. Her grand-daughter Sydney, the daughter of Pitt's brother Doug, shared a touching tribute on Instagram. 'My sweet Grammy,' she wrote. 'We were not ready for you to go yet but knowing you are finally free to sing, dance, and paint again makes it a tad easier.' She described her grandmother as having 'the biggest heart' and said she loved unconditionally and stayed close with all of her grandchildren. 'She could keep up with all 14 of us grandkids without missing a beat,' she said. 'There was no limit to the love she gave, and everyone who met her felt it. 'I don't know how we move forward without her. 'But I know she's still here in every brushstroke, every kind gesture, every hummingbird. She was love in its purest form. 'We were truly blessed to have her to love on growing up and I know she lives on through each of us.' Just weeks before her passing, Pitt gave a rare shoutout to his mother during an appearance on The Today Show. 'To Jane Pitt — I love you, mum,' he said in June, while waving at the camera and blowing a kiss. Although she kept a low profile, Jane supported her son at several major Hollywood events including the 2012 Oscars and the 2014 premiere of Unbroken, directed by Pitt's ex-wife Angelina Jolie. Pitt has six children with Jolie: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh and twins Vivienne and Knox.

Brad Pitt's family mourns his beloved mother Jane Pitt in heartbreaking statement
Jane Pitt, mother of Oscar-winning actor Brad Pitt, passed away peacefully at the age of 84 on August 5, 2025, her family has announced. She is survived by her husband William Alvin 'Bill' Pitt, their three children — Brad, Doug, and Julie — and 14 grandchildren. Sydney Pitt, Brad Pitt's niece and daughter of Doug Pitt, shared a poignant tribute on Instagram celebrating her grandmother's profound impact on the family. 'My sweet Grammy, Jane Etta, we were not ready for you to go yet but knowing you are finally free to sing, dance, and paint again makes it a tad easier,' Sydney wrote alongside photos spanning Jane's life. 'If you knew Grammy, you knew she had the biggest heart. She cared deeply for everyone and everything, no questions asked.' Sydney recalled the lessons Jane taught her: 'She taught me how to paint, how to be strong, how to lead with kindness, to love Jesus through everything, and to find joy in the smallest things. She made up the silliest games just to make us laugh, and she believed in fairness, in putting others first, and doing good simply because it was the right thing to do.' Jane often celebrated each grandchild with a 'special day' filled with treats, games, and outings, showing an unmatched energy for all 14 grandchildren. Sydney reflected, 'There was no limit to the love she gave, and everyone who met her felt it. I don't know how we move forward without her. But I know she's still here in every brushstroke, every kind gesture, every hummingbird. She was love in its purest form.' Born in Memphis, Tennessee, Jane Pitt was a former elementary school teacher and counsellor who raised her family in Springfield, Missouri, alongside her husband Bill, a former trucking company owner. Though typically private, Jane and Bill occasionally accompanied Brad on red carpets, including the 2012 Oscars and the 2014 premiere of 'Unbroken.' Jane was also a gifted artist who shared her passion for painting with her grandchildren, creating cherished family memories. Her family honoured her legacy through philanthropy, including the Jane Pitt Pediatric Cancer Centre in Missouri, funded by donations from the Pitt siblings. Brad Pitt has not made a public statement, but Sydney's heartfelt tribute and the family's reflections highlight a woman whose kindness and creativity left a lasting mark on those who knew her.

Francis Ford Coppola undergoes non-emergency medical procedure in Rome
Francis Ford Coppola has declared he's "fine" after undergoing a non-emergency medical procedure in Rome, Italy. A representative for the Hollywood moviemaker, 86, dismissed false reports suggesting Coppola had suffered an "emergency" heart scare during his trip to the city and insisted he'd actually gone in for a scheduled procedure with his longtime doctor. The spokesperson said in a statement: "Mr Coppola went in for a scheduled update procedure with acclaimed Dr Andrea Natale, his doctor of over 30 years, and is resting nicely. All is well." The representative added: "There was not an emergency. He went to the hospital in a car." Coppola also updated fans about his health issues in a post on Instagram revealing he went to see his doctor for an "update" to a previous procedure to correct an atrial fibrillation- an abnormal heart rhythm. He wrote: "Da Dada (what my kids call me) is fine, taking an opportunity while in Rome to do the update of my 30-year-old afib procedure with its inventor, a great Italian doctor - Dr Andrea Natale! I am well!" Coppola has been travelling around this summer promoting his 2024 movie Megalopolis and during an appearance at a special screening in San Francisco, California on August 1, the director opened up about losing his wife Eleanor last year and compared death to an electric toothbrush that just stops working. According to SFGATE, he told the audience: "I lost my wife a year ago, around this time. But my attitude for death is that I always lived my life so that when I was at the moment approaching death, I wouldn't say: 'Oh, I wish I had done this and I wish I had done that' "Instead I say to myself: 'I got to do this.' I got to see my daughter win an Oscar. I got to see my father win an Oscar.' "I'm going to be so busy saying all the things I got to do that when I die, I'm not going to notice it. When I die, I'm not going to notice it. You know how your electric toothbrush just shuts off when you least expect it? That's what death is like."
