Devil Wears Prada 2 trailer drops

The new trailer for *The Devil Wears Prada 2* arrived with a music reveal built for fashion-world attention: Lady Gaga and Doechii debut an original song called “Runway” over fresh footage of Meryl Streep returning as Miranda Priestly. Disney’s trailer page says the film opens in theaters on May 1, and Deadline reports the final trailer adds new plot details alongside the song. (video.disney.com, deadline.com) That combination matters because *The Devil Wears Prada* has always lived in two worlds at once: Hollywood movie fandom and real fashion-industry mythology. Miranda Priestly is a fictional magazine editor, but the character has long been discussed in relation to Anna Wintour, the longtime Vogue editor who helped turn the original film into a shorthand for fashion power. (abcnews.com) The sequel’s marketing is leaning hard into that overlap. Ahead of the film’s release, Vogue put Meryl Streep and Anna Wintour together for its May 2026 issue, with filmmaker Greta Gerwig conducting the conversation and Annie Leibovitz shooting the cover. (abcnews.com, usatoday.com) That cover is not subtle. It places the actress who plays Miranda next to the editor many people associate with Miranda, turning the movie campaign into a fashion event instead of a standard sequel press tour. ABC News reports that Wintour told Vogue it was “such an honor” to be played by Streep, while Streep said she thought about Wintour when returning to the role 20 years later. (abcnews.com) The trailer itself keeps the focus on the old power dynamics that made the first film stick. Disney’s official video confirms the return of “Runway” as the magazine at the center of the story, and Good Morning America reports the new footage shows Anne Hathaway’s Andy Sachs going back into that orbit under Miranda Priestly. (video.disney.com, goodmorningamerica.com) Emily Blunt’s presence sharpens that nostalgia because her character, Emily Charlton, was one of the original film’s most memorable enforcers of Miranda’s standards. Deadline says the final trailer pairs Streep and Blunt again while teasing more of the sequel’s plot, which helps explain why online reaction is centering on old character chemistry as much as on the new footage. (deadline.com) The Lady Gaga and Doechii song is doing a second job beyond soundtrack promotion. “Runway” is not just a title that fits the movie’s setting; it also turns the fictional magazine’s name and the fashion-world catwalk into the same hook, which makes the trailer feel like a music launch and a film ad at the same time. (video.disney.com, variety.com) That strategy fits the way movie marketing now works on social platforms. A sequel trailer can travel farther when it carries a second piece of culture inside it, and a new Gaga-Doecii collaboration gives fashion fans, pop fans, and movie fans separate reasons to circulate the same clip. (variety.com, billboard.com) The Vogue rollout pushes the same idea from the editorial side. ABC News says the May issue conversation covered fashion and the upcoming sequel, while outside coverage notes the cover story was written by Chloe Malle and framed around Streep and Wintour as a deliberate double image: actress and inspiration, fiction and industry. (abcnews.com, usatoday.com, fashionista.com) So the headline is not only that a trailer dropped. The campaign is packaging *The Devil Wears Prada 2* as a reunion movie, a fashion-magazine spectacle, and a pop-music release all at once, with Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, Lady Gaga, Doechii, Anna Wintour, and Greta Gerwig each pulling in a different audience. (deadline.com, abcnews.com, video.disney.com) The result is that the sequel is being sold less like a normal follow-up and more like a cultural callback with luxury styling. When a studio trailer, a Vogue cover, and a new original song all land in the same window before a May 1 release, the message is clear: this movie wants to own the fashion conversation before it even reaches theaters.
