If you ever found yourself quoting “cerulean blue” while sorting through your closet, get ready — the fashion world’s favorite assistant is officially back.
Anne Hathaway has stepped right back into the role that made millions fall in love with awkward-but-determined Andy Sachs from The Devil Wears Prada, and from the looks of it, her character has come a long way.
From Coffee Runs to Corporate Powerhouse
New photos from the streets of New York show Anne, now 42, suited up in sharp pinstripes and striding confidently through Manhattan with a phone pressed to her ear — a far cry from the nervous, fashion-illiterate newbie we met in the original film.
It’s giving serious executive energy, and fans are already reading into it: clearly, Andy’s career didn’t just take off, it soared.
A Glimpse Into Andy’s Life Two Decades Later
While the plot for The Devil Wears Prada 2 is being kept tightly under wraps, there are hints that the sequel will draw inspiration from Lauren Weisberger’s follow-up novel, Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns.
In the book, Andy is in her 30s, engaged, and working as a magazine editor — which tracks perfectly with the polished powerhouse Anne was spotted playing.
Is Miranda Priestly Still Ice-Cold?
One major question looming over the sequel: what happened to Miranda Priestly? Meryl Streep is confirmed to reprise her role as the queen of icy stares and savage comebacks, but this time, she might be facing a different kind of challenge — the decline of print media.
Will the once-untouchable editor-in-chief of Runway still wield power, or is Miranda finally feeling the shift in an industry she once ruled?
Remember the Cerulean Speech? She Does Too
Who could forget the moment Miranda dressed Andy down for her “lumpy blue sweater,” launching into that unforgettable monologue about how fashion choices aren’t as personal — or as meaningless — as we think?
Anne gave fans a nostalgic nod to that scene just yesterday, posting a cheeky video captioned “Heading to werk” while wearing a sweater very reminiscent of the original.
A Modern Twist on a Classic Scene
In her short video, Anne is seen brushing her teeth with an electric toothbrush — a 2025 update to the frantic, manual-brushing version of Andy we met in her first Runway interview.
It’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment, but fans instantly latched onto it, especially when they saw that shade of blue.
Fans Are Already Losing It
The reaction online was instant and intense. One fan screamed, “SHE’S WEARING THAT CERULEAN BLUE!!!!” while another summed up the hype perfectly:
“I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas for Devil Wears Prada SEQUEL!!!!” It’s clear this film isn’t just a nostalgic throwback — it’s a full-on event for fashion and film lovers alike.
A Star-Studded Cast Returns
The sequel, currently set for release in May, reunites much of the original cast.
Alongside Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci are back to bring their fan-favorite characters to life.
Tracie Thoms and Tibor Feldman are also returning, and the cast is getting a fresh injection of talent with Simone Ashley, Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, and Pauline Chalamet joining the lineup.
The Writer Behind the Original Is Back Too
Helping to keep the magic alive is Aline Brosh McKenna, who wrote the screenplay for the original film and is back on board for the sequel.
With her involved, fans can expect sharp dialogue, stylish chaos, and maybe even a few emotional gut-punches.
So What’s Next for Andy?
That’s the million-dollar question. Will Andy still be chasing deadlines, or running the show? Is she still navigating fashion politics — or creating them? While the official storyline remains tightly sealed, one thing’s for sure: this sequel is ready to serve looks, legacy, and all the attitude that made the original a cultural phenomenon.
