“The time has come.”
20th Century Studios celebrates the start of the pre-sale of The Devil Wears Prada 2 debuting a new preview, and a new official poster.
It is important to clarify that tickets are already on sale in the US market, so the preview that we share at the end of the note is in the original language without subtitles, although a large part of the teaser is a visual delight that takes us once again into the world of fashion, through more iconic appearances and phrases by the iconic trio. Meryl Streep, Anne Hathawayy Emily Bluntresuming the roles that consolidated them as part of pop culture for all time.
The return of the three actresses is accompanied by that of Stanley Tucci.
The preview begins with the arrival of Miranda Priestly (Streep) at Andy Sachs's (Hathaway) apartment, who opens the door while still asleep, and is greeted by Miranda with a Miranda-style line: “We have work to do, and by “we,” I mean you.”
According to previous reports, it is expected that the story of The Devil Wears Prada 2, introduce Priestly (Streep), Runway's terrifying editor-in-chief, still at the head of the magazine, grappling with publishing industry hurdles amid decline of traditional magazine publishing. He confronts Blunt's character, his former assistant, Emily Charlton, now a high-ranking executive at a luxury brand conglomerate, with the advertising money Priestly desperately needs.
Blunt also makes a great appearance in the teaser, dropping another great line: “May the bridges that I burn illuminate my path.”.
Streep's Miranda closes with a flourish, as she appears during what appears to be a meeting with her magazine staff, in which Hathaway and Tucci's characters participate, along with other members, and while old photographs of models are shown, Streep tells Hathaway, “And you were there when these images were taken, and the models were encouraged to wander like starving goats in the parking lot of a methadone clinic in New Jersey,” extremely funny words that can be canceled in present times, something that one of those present points out to Miranda, who answers with, “What? What can't I say? Methadone? New Jersey?” and he gives us something that we didn't know in the first film: a laugh. The gestures on Streep's face are 10/10.
