Key Points:
- The Devil Wears Prada 2 held press screenings recently ahead of its global theatrical release on May 1, with full critic reviews embargoed until April 29.
- The sequel reunites original stars Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci, continuing the story of Runway Magazine's struggle to stay relevant in the digital age.
- New cast members include Justin Theroux and Kenneth Branagh, with notable cameos from Donatella Versace, Lady Gaga, and others.
- Directed by David Frankel and written by Aline Brosh McKenna, the film follows the original 2006 hit, which grossed $327 million and became a cultural phenomenon.
