Emily Blunt cuts a casual figure in a T-shirt and jeans as she departs the set of The Devil Wears Prada 2 in NYC
The actress, 42, tried to keep a low profile as she sported a white and black cap and kept her head down while heading to a waiting car.
The film star, who is reprising her role of Emily Charlton from the first film, sported a baby blue T-shirt tucked into a pair of light jeans.
She also wore a pair of white trainers and complimented her outfit with a cream handbag.
Letting her brunette locks fall loose down her shoulders, Emily completed her look with a gold necklace.
Emily portrayed the long-suffering assistant of magazine editor Miranda Priestly, portrayed by Meryl Streep while Anne Hathaway starred as her junior assistant Andy Sachs.
All three women are reprising their roles in the sequel along with new cast members Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, and Pauline Chalamet.
In the sequel, 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.
The original film lifted the lid on the cut-throat fashion world, and two decades on that world will have changed, not least for Sachs's domineering boss, Runway editor-in-chief Miranda, played again by Meryl.
The movie is expected to at least reveal her fate, showing her once-all-powerful character dealing with the decline of print industry.
One question is whether she will have retained her icy demeanor.
In one scene in the first film, Andy chuckles through an editorial fashion meeting led by Priestly, who then delivers a cutting assessment of her 'cerulean' sweater.
'You think this has nothing to do with you,' Priestly tells her.
'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, 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.'
The scene became iconic and spawned the 'cerulean blue' theory of how all styles trickle down from the catwalk.
Anne made a nod to the scene yesterday morning when she posted a clip online wearing a similar sweater with the caption 'Heading to werk' [sic] with the hashtag #dwp2.
In the video, Anne 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 brief clip quickly exploded online, with commenters quoting Miranda's epic takedown of Andy's supposed fashion indifference.
One gushed: 'SHE'S WEARING THAT CERULEAN BLUE!!!!'

Hulk Hogan the man did terrible things. But the character was revolutionary
When Hulk Hogan died and a rush of people searched his name on Google to read various obituaries, I'm sure at least some of them were shocked to find that one of the most popular search terms related to the WWE Hall of Famer is 'Hulk Hogan lies.' There are countless videos, Reddit threads, social media posts and articles detailing all the things the Hulkster apparently said that were either exaggerations, distortions or outright fabrications. One time, Hogan said he was asked to play in Metallica. The band denied the story straight away. Hulk said in his autobiography that he partied with John Belushi after WrestleMania 2 in 1986, even though Belushi had died in 1982. There's also the time where Hulk thought the Jackass star Bam Margera was dead when he very much was not. If you aren't a wrestling fan (you're reading the Guardian. You're probably not a wrestling fan) you might wonder why someone who was famous for four decades would feel the need to lie about whether he could have been in Metallica. These are the sorts of lies the quarterback of your high school tells at the reunion. 'Andre the Giant was 700lbs when I bodyslammed him in from of 200,000 people at the Roman Colosseum' is definitely an anecdote that could get you a free shot at the no-host bar at the Elks Lodge, but if you're Hulk Hogan, you could just be honest and say Andre was more like 400lbs and the crowd was between 80,000 and 93,000, depending on whom you ask. Also, it was in Pontiac, Michigan, not Rome. Hulk Hogan did not need to lie, but he did. Often. Lying, fabrication and multiple layers of reality are fundamental tenets of professional wrestling at every level of the industry. In 2019, I worked at WWE as a writer for their TV show SmackDown just long enough to get fired. I wasn't there for enough time to actually get good at the art of crafting a compelling wrestling story, but I was there long enough to realize that the most crucial element of wrestling is some form of dishonesty. The performer's job is to approximate reality, to portray their character not just on TV, but on social media, in the press, and sometimes even at the airport. Wrestling is performance art on an entirely different level. Terry Bollea had to live his life as Hulk Hogan – the bandana, the tank tops, the white mustache. In his now-infamous reality show, Hogan Knows Best, despite the conceit of seeing inside Hulk's real home, he was still that character. Terry Bollea was so committed to being Hulk Hogan that he had a formal bandana for black tie events. No one would be mad if he wore, say, a Kangol hat or maybe … no hat at all? When Hogan testified in the Gawker trial, it was shocking to hear him refer to 'Terry Bollea' and 'Hulk Hogan' as two different people. The line wasn't just blurred. It was wiped away completely. In the pro wrestling parlance, this veil of fiction is called 'kayfabe' – a word with its origin in the old-timey carnival culture that wrestling evolved from. Kayfabe is both a noun to describe the glorious unreality of wrestling and a verb to describe when someone is subtly lying to you (or hiding something incredibly important). In WWE, there are layers of kayfabe, with fewer and fewer people smartened up to what's happening the deeper you go. The outcomes of the matches are kayfabed. Who is wrestling in the main event of WrestleMania 42 next spring is super kayfabed. This doesn't seem that terribly different from protecting the ending of a summer blockbuster film, but when you're inside the business, you realize that everything can be kayfabed. How can you trust anything anyone says? WWE just launched a reality show on Netflix called Unreal, which claims to lift the veil on the behind-the-scenes creation of their storylines. I immediately said to myself: 'This is just another layer of kayfabe.' The sacred work of wrestling is to make people believe, to bend the truth just enough to make a few bucks off our curiosity. This is the world Hulk Hogan lived in. I still love wrestling, and despite the horrible things he said and did, I still see Hulk Hogan the character as one of the most influential heroes in American history. He managed to make the most mundane, thunderingly obvious credo ('say your prayers and eat your vitamins, kids!') sound revolutionary. He knew how to captivate an audience with nothing more than a gesture. He understood the art of platonic seduction – the way to get someone to not just love you, but to think that their struggle is also yours. Wrestling fans – both children and adults – could live vicariously through Hulk Hogan. His appeals in his speeches were to his 'Hulkamaniacs', the fans that gave him the strength to do the impossible. At WrestleMania 3, if Andre the Giant wanted to beat Hulk Hogan for the WWE Championship, he'd also have to contend with the millions of Hulkamaniacs cheering for him. In the unreality of pro wrestling, you, the audience member, are the real protagonist. Hulk Hogan is merely a vessel for you to travel in. If this sounds familiar, it's because it is. One of Hulk Hogan's last televised appearances was at the Republican national convention in 2024. He tore a Trump T-shirt off his body instead of a Hulkamania shirt and pledged his full fealty to our future president. In some twisted way, it was a passing of the torch. For years, Hulk Hogan had been the apex of wrestling's art of unreality. His talent for leading the masses peaked around 1988, and as the world got more savvy about WWE's particular magic trick, the connection severed. He left for a rival company, became a bad guy, and reinvented the art form again. But it could never be quite what it was in the mid-80s. Wrestlers such as Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock and John Cena could captivate a crowd, but it was nothing like Hulkamania. No one would or could ever truly believe like that again. This is why WWE has to open up (or at least pretend to), like the Soviet Union at the end of the cold war. After years of sitting under the learning tree of WWE's former owner, Vince McMahon, Donald Trump took the tools of platonic seduction that Hulk Hogan perfected and applied them to politics. The use of the word 'we', the commonality of struggle, the dastardly enemies to defeat in righteous combat. Even the empty slogans. Is 'make America great again' that far removed from 'say your prayers and eat your vitamins'? When Hulk Hogan exaggerated a story or outright lied, he'd very rarely retract his statement. When he was allowed back in the WWE locker room after tape of his racist tirade circulated publicly, he spent most of his apology warning fellow wrestlers to be careful about 'getting caught'. Hulk Hogan was a man who made his own truth. He didn't need to do anything other than live in the world he made for himself. The more he made up about himself, the grander he became. He was truly the greatest American hero, because he personified the most American virtue of them all: you do not have to be you. And the more he fashioned himself a superhero, the more we wanted to be him – to fully merge with him into one entity. This power was both awe-inspiring and perhaps the most terrifying weapon any human being could wield in this life. Dave Schilling is a Los Angeles-based writer and humorist

MAFS' Adrienne Naylor breaks silence on cracking America on TV show The Challenge after painful injury
MAFS star Adrienne Naylor has broken her silence on taking part on The Challenge US after she sustained an injury early on but bravely carried on. The reality star made history as the first MAFS contestant to appear on an American TV show. 6 6 6 Adrienne, who starred on the E4 dating show in 2023, was treated by paramedics in the back of an ambulance in a preview clip on last night's episode. Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Adrienne said: "That was one thing I didn't anticipate was being injured and going into an ambulance, there's a preview of it in the first episode. "And you'll get to see what fully happens and what comes out, and then what it also leads to as well. So there's a lot to it. "In a foreign country going into an ambulance, not knowing where your fate then lies for the rest of the show, because, you know, I did not pack four suitcases, travel 24 hours to be sent home." The show sees competitors face grueling physical and mental challenges to win $500,000 in prize money in MTV's longest-running series. Adrienne, who regularly shows off gym videos following her fitness journey, said she nearly had to quit the process even before it had started, but was determined more than ever to not pull out. She said: "To be honest, I was so close at one point to saying that I couldn't go on the show because I wasn't prepared enough in my eyes. "I am very critical of myself. I've been on a huge weight loss journey, and the gym's always been there. "But towards the back end of last year I found myself a little bit lost, and I didn't know what direction I was going in, and I just launched a business. So I was trying to manage that. "Then I also had some really bad complications with contraception with the coil. Married At First Sight star Adrienne shows off her 'real body' in tiny bikini on holiday in Antigua "So I was on antibiotics for like two weeks before actually going, and I was like, I don't know if I can actually go. "I couldn't feel my legs. Yeah, it was really, really bad. "And I was like, I don't know if I can go. "But then I was like it's too much of a good experience, no matter how far I get to give this up. "And so I was like, I'm just going to go, even though I'm not as prepared as I was." BEATING MY FEARS The reality favourite admitted she overcame her biggest fears during the show - including being able to deal with the unexpected. "Every time we walked onto set we never, ever knew what it was going to be ever," Adrienne shared. "Many times in the Challenge House, where I think you have your doubts as to why you're there, and what's my purpose. Why am I here? Is this really worth it? "Because it is honestly one of the most demanding and hardest things, the stress on your body that it has." And just when you thought that process was hard enough, Adrienne teased that the series is packed full of drama, tears, rows and secrecy. "I'm not a crier, really but my god, I probably shed enough tears to fill a dam, and it was intense. It's a real emotion," she said. "There's a lot of arguments. There's a lot of big personalities all under one roof, and it can be challenging." But the stunning star from Cumbria admitted that she's a "social butterfly" and used that to her advantage when making alliances. She continued: "It did become stressful because sometimes the UK and America have a different sense of humor, especially with me, I've got such a Northern accent that sometimes they couldn't understand what I was saying. "But overall, for me I can adapt to a lot of situations, and I can adapt to people. "But there probably are a few people in there that I probably don't really care if I ever hear your voice again. "But then there's also a lot of love. There's a lot of people that I've made friends with from the show." NO MEAN FEAT Adrienne opened up about the physical and mental toll the gruelling yet rewarding show took on her. The fitness enthusiast said she prepared for the show with boxing training and building mental resilience after MAFS, following cruel trolling online. She said: "Even though I wasn't where I wanted to be physically, I felt like I still deserved to be there. "I'm so proud of myself for what I did accomplish on the show, and I think I've made a really good impact, and I would love to be reinvited back, and this time to be fitter and stronger. "Since I've been home I've literally been working my bum off in the gym. I've been running. I've been back boxing and just preparing myself when that call comes around because we're manifesting it." She also teased that some contestants will put their foot in it, while she had her own clever game plan when it came to the competition. "I wanted to kind of sit back, see how everything unraveled and play my cards from there, and I didn't want to overspill, " Adrienne said. "There's a lot of people that put their foot in things from having too much alcohol on the plate, and I was not going to be one of them. "There's so much going on you can never really be bored, because it's kind of like bam, bam, bam, bam, like every single episode, it's jam packed full of action, drama, tears, laughter, romance... there's lots of romance... every single thing is covered in one episode." ADRIENNE'S RETURN? Despite the gruelling process, Adrienne said she is gearing up to return to the show and will be in the best shape of her life when she does. She added: "I think if I get the phone call to go back, I'll be answering it in two seconds and say, 'when's my flight?' "And I've been back on my fitness journey properly, being really locked in. I've been running more, I've lived the experience, and I know what I need to do to make myself that bit better. "I feel very lucky and very grateful that things are finally aligned to how I want them to be. I think that I would be going in there as a fresh Adrienne. "Life's a bit more settled now, I will be able to fully focus and fully lock in and now that I've played it already and now I know how to play the game. And I would have a different mentality going in." 6 6 6

Hulk Hogan's cause of death revealed
Hulk Hogan's official cause of death was revealed on Thursday. The athlete died from acute myocardial infarction, commonly known as a heart attack, which occurs when blood flow to the heart is suddenly blocked. In addition, it was revealed that the wrestling icon had been privately battling chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), a form of cancer that affects white blood cells known as lymphocytes. A cremation approval report obtained by Page Six disclosed that Hogan had previously been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation — a condition marked by a fast and irregular heartbeat, as defined by the Mayo Clinic. The wrestling legend died on July 24 in Florida , aged 71. Hogan's death was officially ruled as natural causes. His official cause of death follows on from claims Hogan felt 'weak' and 'embarrassed' shortly before he died. Eric Bischoff, his good friend, shared details of his last-ever meeting with Hogan. Speaking on the 83 Weeks with Eric Bischoff podcast, he explained: 'I could tell he was weak. He sounded tired. '[Hogan] said, 'I really want to see you, but I'm kind of embarrassed for you to see me this way because I've been pretty sick.' When I look at you, I don't see the same thing you see when you look in the mirror, so f*** that, I'll be down Monday.' Hogan's personality still shone through in their conversations, despite his health struggles. Eric shared: 'It was work for him to have a conversation but he was the same guy.' Earlier this week, Brooke Hogan took to social media to pay tribute to her dad and to reflect on their turbulent relationship. The 37-year-old star said on Instagram: 'When he left this earth, it felt like part of my spirit left with him. I felt it before the news even reached us. I know he's at peace now, out of pain, and in a place as beautiful as he imagined. He used to speak about this moment with such wonder and hope. Like meeting God was the greatest championship he'd ever have.' Brooke also used her post to 'clear a few things up' regarding their estrangement. The realty star wrote: 'It was a series of private phone calls no one will ever hear, know, or understand. My father was confiding in me about issues weighing on his heart, both personal and business. I offered to be a life raft in whatever capacity he needed. I told him he had my support. I begged him to rest, to take care of himself.' Brooke and her husband, Steven Olesky, actually moved closer to the wrestler as he battled with health problems.
