"In a Vogue first look published on Feb. 1, Anne Hathaway, who reprises her role as Andy Sachs, said it felt "practically psychedelic" watching Meryl Streep return as Miranda 20 years after their first team-up. "I just felt so many portals open up at that moment. I was 22 again, but it was still now," she said. "Thankfully, this time, she didn't stay in character the entire time, so we had a lot of laughs.""
"In 2021, the cast reflected on the original film for a 15th-anniversary oral history with Entertainment Weekly, and Streep admitted she had a "horrible" time isolating herself from the cast to get into Miranda's headspace. "I could hear them all rocking and laughing. I was so depressed!" she recalled. "I said, 'Well, it's the price you pay for being boss!' That's the last time I ever attempted a method thing.""
The Devil Wears Prada 2 arrives in May with Miranda Priestly remaining fashionably aloof; the sequel's trailer even shows Miranda failing to remember Andy despite previously calling her the most disappointing assistant. Production brought a warmer atmosphere and notable camaraderie among the cast, mixing nostalgia with laughter. Filming felt almost psychedelic, reopening portals of memory and youth, and elicited a jubilant reception on Sixth Avenue. A prior isolationist approach to inhabiting Miranda was abandoned after a depressive experience, ending attempts at method acting and fostering a lighter, more collaborative set dynamic for the sequel.
