Vanessa Williams Is Miranda Priestly in ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ Musical
‘The Devil Wears Prada’ musical, based on the hit film, will premiere on London’s West End in October 2024
The production first opened in Chicago in 2022 with Beth Leavel as diabolical fashion editor Miranda Priestly, but the English musical has a completely new cast and creative team. Director Jerry Mitchell revealed via Instagram in September 2023 that the musical was coming to London, but it wasn’t until February 2024 that Vanessa Williams was announced as Miranda Priestly for the new shows. At the time, Williams recreated the iconic movie scene via Instagram in which the character, first made famous by Meryl Streep in the 2006 film, walks into Runway magazine’s offices, puts her handbag on the table, throws her coat and barks orders at new assistant Andy ( Anne Hathaway).
