While there haven't been official casting announcements, many of the original stars are rumored to return, stepping back into their iconic roles in the glamorous — but evolved — high-fashion journalism industry years later. During an October 2024 conversation with PEOPLE, Tucci opened up about the possibility of reprising his role as art director Nigel and reuniting with his former costars, saying, "I thinkwe would have one of the best times ever." "If it does happen, I can only say that I'll be happy," he said. "I've made many movies, I've probably made close to 100 movies, and I don't even know how many television episodes, but that experience was one of the greatest experiences I've ever had." The original film, based on Lauren Weisberger's book of the same name, follows Andy Sachs (Hathaway), a recent college graduate eager to pursue a career in journalism. Andy ends up working as a junior assistant for Miranda Priestly (Streep), the editor-in-chief ofRunway, a fictional high-fashion magazine. Throughout the movie, Andy struggles to meet the demands of her job while maintaining her relationship with her boyfriend and co-workers, Emily (Blunt) and Nigel (Tucci). The film ultimately grossed $326 million at the worldwide box office and was well-received during awards season, earning Streep her 14th Academy Award nomination.

The movie could also incorporate plot points of the book sequel,Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns, which was released in 2013. The novel takes place nearly a decade after the original and sees Andy and Emily come together as top magazine editors when Miranda comes sneaking back into Andy's life. Barry Wetcher/20th Century Fox/Kobal/Shutterstock Reports ofThe Devil Wears Prada 2'spotential plot suggests that Streep and Blunt would be back, but no casting details have officially been confirmed. PerEntertainment Weekly, Tucci is also in talks to return with Blunt and Streep. The three lead women had asmall reunion on the SAG Awards stagein February 2024 when they announced the winner of best male actor in a comedy series. As Streep began to open the envelope to announce the winner, Blunt called back to one of Streep's iconic lines from the movie, saying, "By all means, move at a glacial pace. You know that thrills me." The previous month, Hathaway and Blunt reunited forVariety's "Actors on Actors" series andreflected on their timemaking the movie. "We just had a joy bomb of a time on that movie. I don't know if any of us knew it was going to become what it did," Blunt said. "It's quoted to me every week. It will be the movie that changed my life." 20th Century Fox/Kobal/Shutterstock Though the main cast have had nothing but positive things to say about their time making the original, they have expressed some hesitancy about a sequel. In April 2024, Hathaway toldExtrathat she "wouldn't hold out too much hope" for a sequel after tellingE! Newsthat previous month that she didn't "think a continuation of that story is probably ever gonna happen." Blunt has been more back and forth between enthusiasm for a sequel and unsureness, telling PEOPLE in April 2018 that it may not be the best idea. "If everyone did itI would be up for it," she said. "I almost hope it doesn't [happen] because I think sometimes when you sequel everything kind of dilutes how special the original is." Four years later, in 2022, she doubled down on her comments, sharing onThe Viewthat she "would do [a sequel]in a heartbeat just to play with those guys again." Just a couple of weeks later, Hathaway made her own appearance onThe Viewand shared that shedidn't know if there could be a sequelsince the movie "was in a different era." "Now, everything's gone so digital, and that movie centered around the concept of producing a physical thing. It's just very different now," she said. Although Hathaway did suggest the possibility of rebooting the movie with a new cast. "But they could relaunch it," she said. "They could find new people and do it. Do you think they'd let us do that?" Most recently, Blunt said during a February 2024 appearance on theHappy Sad Confusedpodcast that the cast is"good" without a sequel. "Sometimes things should be cherished and preserved in this bubble and it's okay," she said. Barry Wetcher/20th Century Fox/Kobal/Shutterstock Wendy Finerman, who producedThe Devil Wears Prada, is set to return for the film, and, perDeadline, the original director, David Frankel, is also having conversations about a return. The same writer who wrote the 2006 film, Aline Brosh McKenna, is also confirmed to be returning. In celebration of the 15th anniversary of the film in 2021, Frankel and McKenna spoke toEntertainment Weeklyabout the potential for a sequel, sharing that the discussion wasn't fully materialized at the time. "We had a meeting where we said, 'What could we do if there was a sequel?' Maybe it was stupid; we felt like, No, this story has been told," Frankel said. "Lauren eventually wrote another book following up 15 years later. We came to the same conclusion, that just following the characters wouldn't be the same." McKenna added that it could be interesting to explore the world of magazines in the digital age. "Magazines and publishing have changed so much," she said. "This is a period of time where [Andy] took a physical book to someone's house every day so she could leaf through it. Maybe they still do that, but I doubt it. It had its moment!"
