The Devil Wears Prada 2 is an upcoming American comedy drama film directed by David Frankel and written by Aline Brosh McKenna. A sequel to The Devil Wears Prada (2006), it is based on the novel Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns by Lauren Weisberger. Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, Tracie Thoms, Tibor Feldman, and Stanley Tucci reprise their roles from the first film, with Frankel and McKenna additionally returning to respectively direct and write the script.
The Devil Wears Prada 2 is scheduled to be released in the United States and Canada on May 1, 2026.
In 2013, Lauren Weisberger wrote a sequel, Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns. It did not seem likely that a sequel to the original film would be made as two of the film's stars were not eager to do so. Meryl Streep reportedly said that she was not interested in making a sequel to the film, and while Anne Hathaway said she would be interested in working with the same people, it would have to be "something totally different".

In July 2024, it was reported that Walt Disney Studios, the parent division of 20th Century Studios, was interested in developing a sequel.
