Liputan6.com, Jakarta - Fans of fashion films and comedy dramas around the world are excitedly awaiting the latest news on the highly anticipated sequel, The Devil Wears Prada 2.

The official trailer for the film was released in early February 2026, offering an exclusive glimpse into the continuation of the iconic Runway magazine story.

This trailer follows the teaser released the previous November, which became the second-biggest trailer launch of the year, reaching 185 million views.

Distributor 20th Century Studios officially released the trailer and character posters for the sequel.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 promises a more complex and relevant take on the fashion world directed by David Frankel with Aline Brosh McKenna as screenwriter.

The main stars of the first film have been confirmed to reprise their iconic characters in The Devil Wears Prada 2.

Meryl Streep will return as Miranda Priestly, the charismatic and demanding editor-in-chief.

Anne Hathaway will also reprise the role of Andy Sachs, Miranda's assistant, who has now grown into a more experienced figure.

Emily Blunt will also return as Emily Charlton, Miranda's ambitious first assistant, and Stanley Tucci as Nigel Kipling, the wise art director.

Tracie Thoms and Tibor Feldman have also been confirmed, rounding out the beloved original cast.

Anne Hathaway even described her experience during the camera test as almost psychedelic, feeling like she was 22 years old yet still in the present while filming on Sixth Avenue.

Kenneth Branagh will join the cast as Miranda Priestly's husband, adding a new dimension to the character's personal life.

Other big names like Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, Caleb Hearon, Helen J. Shen, Pauline Chalamet, B.J. Novak, and Conrad Ricamora will also be appearing in the film.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 will be set twenty years after the events of the 2006 original film.

Miranda Priestly now faces a new challenge: the decline of print journalism, an issue that is particularly relevant in today's digital age.

Meanwhile, Emily Charlton, now the head of a luxury brand, wields the financial clout to ensure Runway magazine's survival.

Andy Sachs, who has returned to the Runway office as the new features editor, brings a different perspective and experience.

The film's trailer features an awkward reunion between Andy and Emily, who is now a powerful executive at a luxury conglomerate that controls much-needed advertising revenue for Miranda.
