BREAKING NEWS Emmy SNUBS! Selena Gomez and her Oscar-winning costar both ignored as they lead list of shocking omissions
The nominations for the 2025 Emmy Awards were revealed Tuesday morning, but some of the glaring omissions stood out even more than the nominees. One of the most shocking omissions from the nominations was for Selena Gomez, who has a long history of snubs for her popular series Only Murders In The Building. While her Hulu show has been nominated in multiple years for Outstanding Comedy Series, it wasn't until last year that Selena finally earned an Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series nomination. But the Emmys snatched away any hopes of her finally winning the award at the 2025 ceremony when she was left out of that category's nominees, who include Uzo Aduba (The Residence), Kristen Bell (Nobody Wants This), Quinta Brunson (Abbott Elementary) Ayo Edebiri (The Bear) and Jean Smart (Hacks). This year, Only Murders In The Building secured a lead-actor nomination for Martin Short, but Steve Martin, the other key member of the lead trio, was also snubbed after receiving a nomination in 2024. Oscar winner Meryl Streep received plenty of buzz for joining the comedy series — in which a group of podcasting neighbors try to solve a series of murders that occur in their proximity — during its third season, but she also wasn't able to garner an Emmy nomination. Streep has been attracting buzz both on- and off-screen for the role, as she and Martin Short reportedly began dating after she joined the series in a supporting role. Their chemistry in front of the camera will likely be even more palpable in the upcoming fifth season, as their characters will now be married. Despite the individual acting Emmy snubs, Only Murders In The Building again scored an Outstanding Comedy Series nod.

The Devil Wears Prada 2: Lucy Liu And Justin Theroux Join Meryl Streep Starrer
Last Updated: Lucy Liu and Justin Theroux have joined cast of The Devil Wears Prada 2 alongside returning stars Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci. Lucy Liu and Justin Theroux have joined cast of The Devil Wears Prada 2. The actors have been added to the line-up of the sequel to the 2006 film alongside returning stars Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci while Variety reports B.J. Novak and Pauline Chalamet have also joined the project. The original film – which is based on the semi-autobiographical novel by Lauren Weisberger – followed Anne Hathaway as an aspiring journalist who starts working for formidable Runway magazine boss Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep). The sequel is believed to take up the story as Priestly deals with issues relating to the decline in magazine publishing and faces off with her former assistant Emily (Emily Blunt), who is now a high-powered executive at a luxury fashion group in control of much-needed advertising revenue that could save the publication. The project is believed to have started filming – with location shoots planned for New York City and Italy – ahead of a planned 2026 release. David Frankel – who directed the 2006 film – is back on board for the sequel along with screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna. Kenneth Branagh was previously reported to have joined the cast, playing Priestly's husband. Blunt previously suggested that filming would kick off this month and that there will be some 'beef" between her alter-ego and Streep's character. She told Entertainment Tonight: '[Streep and I are] so mean to each other in every movie [they] do. We always have beef with each other. I don't know what it is. Let's hope we remedy it. I'm not sure!" However, the actress admitted she doesn't know what her character Emily is up to now as she remained coy about giving away any plot details. She said, 'I don't know. Where is [Emily]? I don't know Can you tell I'm skirting the issue? Can you tell I'm not telling you anything?" Blunt also noted that she had no idea that she would ever return to the role that started her career almost 20 years ago. She added, 'No. Twenty years ago, in a blink, it's gone by." The Devil Wears Prada 2 is set for release on July 1 2026. First Published:

Photo credit: Santiago Felipe / Getty Images Other than original stars Meryl Streep ( Mamma Mia! ), Anne Hathaway ( The Idea of You ), Emily Blunt ( Fall Guy ), and Stanley Tucci ( The Hunger Games trilogy), there will be two other actresses reprising their roles from the original film. Tracie Thoms ( Rent ), who played Lily, a sassy supportive art gallery manager who is best friend to Hathaway's Andy, and Tibor Feldman ( Enchanted ), who played Irv Ravitz, the Runway Magazine publisher more concerned with profits than fashion, will both make a return to the big screen in their respective roles. Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt in The Devil Wears Prada (2006) Disney's 20th Century Studios is producing The Devil Wears Prada sequel, set for theatrical release on 1 May 2026. While plot details remain under wraps, the story is expected to follow Miranda Priestly (Streep) as she confronts the challenges of a declining print media industry. She will go head-to-head with her former assistant (Blunt), now a powerful executive at a luxury conglomerate that controls the ad revenue Priestly needs. While this isn't the first time that Streep has had a fan favourite movie revisited by filmmakers years after the original, having reprised her role in Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again (2018), ten years after the first film, the return of The Devil Wears Prada is one that fans have been clamouring for a long time. In fact, in 2024, Streep, Blunt, and Hathaway reunited at the SAG Awards to announce the winner of Best Actor in a Comedy Series, with Hathaway and Blunt jokingly quoting iconic lines from The Devil Wears Prada to loud cheers from fans and fellow celebrities alike. David Frankel and Aline Brosh McKenna are returning as director and screenwriter, alongside producer Karen Rosenfelt. The classic original film, based on Lauren Weisberger's novel inspired by her time at Vogue , centred on aspiring journalist Andy Sachs (Hathaway) navigating life under a ruthless fashion editor. The 2006 hit grossed over US$326 million globally and an Oscar nomination for Streep. With the hype around The Devil Wears Prada having built since the triumphant trio's reunion at the 2024 SAG Awards, coupled with the addition of stars such as Liu, Theroux, Novak and Chalamet, fans can undoubtedly look forward to the fashion-forward return of the upcoming sequel.
