Meryl Streep and Anna Wintour Share Vogue Cover as ‘Devil Wears Prada 2’ Nears Release

The pairing signals a campaign built on fashion-world credibility to frame a sequel about a print icon facing the digital age.

Overview

  • Vogue unveiled its May cover and a Greta Gerwig–moderated interview on Tuesday, pushing the film’s final lead‑up to its May 1 theatrical opening.
  • Meryl Streep said designers refused to lend clothes to the 2006 production because they were afraid of Anna Wintour, which complicated building Miranda Priestly’s wardrobe.
  • Anna Wintour said she called Streep when sequel rumors surfaced and later heard back, “I think it’s going to be all right,” after Streep read the script.
  • Streep criticized Melania Trump’s 2018 “I Really Don’t Care, Do U?” jacket, calling it a powerful message during a visit to detained migrant children.
  • The sequel reunites Streep with Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci and centers on a fashion editor steering a print magazine through today’s media upheaval, as the press tour hits Tokyo and Seoul with designer looks.
