Emily Blunt’s Comments on Returning

During her appearance at the Red Sea International Film Festival, Blunt addressed the rumors surrounding her return to the franchise.

While not confirming anything specific, the actress acknowledged the growing buzz about the sequel.

"There (are) rumblings. There is stuff churning around. But I don’t know if I can confirm anything. But we would all be delighted," Blunt remarked, as mentioned in a report by Screenrant and The Hollywood Reporter.

Although Blunt’s comments are cautious, they suggest that the creative team behind the film is considering the original cast for the sequel.

What to Expect from The Devil Wears Prada 2?

While the plot of The Devil Wears Prada 2 remains largely under wraps, early reports indicate that the sequel could follow Miranda Priestly near the end of her career.

In this potential storyline, Miranda may seek out the help of Emily to revive her struggling magazine business. Given the challenges Miranda faces in the original film, a plot revolving around her efforts to maintain her reign in the fashion industry offers a compelling direction for the sequel, according to the Screenrant report.

In addition to Blunt, it’s likely that Meryl Streep will return as Miranda Priestly, continuing her iconic portrayal of the ruthless fashion mogul.

However, details regarding other cast members or the official storyline are yet to be disclosed.
