The Devil Wears Prada sequel in the works about declining advertising revenues for print media

Original film’s screenwriter in talks for sequel which will see Miranda Priestly battling a luxury brand outfit headed by former assistant Emily Charlton

A sequel to hit 2006 comedy The Devil Wears Prada is under way at Disney, with key cast and crew widely expected to return, including director David Frankel. Aline Brosh McKenna, who adapted the original film from the novel by Lauren Weisberger is in talks to write the follow-up, whose storyline reportedly follows Miranda Priestly, the withering fashion mag editor played by Meryl Streep, as she navigates the decline of traditional print publication in the digital space. Significant reassessment of the film’s romantic subplot has also taken place, with many viewers believing that Andy’s boyfriend, Nate, was the “real villain” of the story for his efforts to get his girlfriend to take her career less seriously.
