It’s official, fashion’s fiercest editor is returning, and this time, she’s bringing Lady Gaga with her. Reports confirm that the pop icon and Oscar-nominated actress has joined the cast of The Devil Wears Prada 2, alongside original stars Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt.
According to Deadline, Gaga has been spotted filming in New York City, wearing show-stopping designer looks that have already set social media alight. While her role has yet to be confirmed, fans are buzzing with theories that she could play a bold new power player in the world of high fashion, one who gives Miranda Priestly a serious run for her money.
The sequel, which is due for release on May 1, 2026, will arrive almost twenty years after the original film first hit cinemas. The 2006 classic, based on the 2003 novel by Lauren Weisberger, followed aspiring journalist Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway) as she took on a job assisting Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep), the icy editor-in-chief of the world’s most powerful fashion magazine. Emily Blunt also became a household name after her breakout role as Miranda’s sarcastic senior assistant, Emily Charlton.
With the return of its leading trio, the upcoming film will explore how these characters navigate the modern fashion landscape, a world now driven by influencers, fast trends, and digital media rather than glossy magazine pages. Sources close to the production have hinted that Gaga’s character could represent this new era, clashing with Priestly’s old-school approach to journalism and style.
The original The Devil Wears Prada became one of the most iconic comedies of its time, earning over $325 million worldwide and two Academy Award nominations. Its unforgettable lines, high-fashion wardrobe, and sharp commentary on ambition and success have kept it relevant ever since.
Lady Gaga’s involvement feels like a perfect match. Her dramatic flair, fearless sense of style, and proven acting talent in A Star Is Born and House of Gucci make her a natural fit for the world of Prada. Fans are already excited about the prospect of seeing her share the screen with Meryl Streep’s formidable Miranda. One user on X wrote, “Lady Gaga versus Meryl Streep? That’s fashion warfare we didn’t know we needed.” Another joked, “Somewhere, Andy Sachs just spilled her oat milk latte.”
Although details remain tightly under wraps, the sequel is expected to reunite much of the original creative team, with director David Frankel reportedly in talks to return. If so, audiences can expect the same razor-sharp wit and style that made the first film a global hit, with a fresh, modern twist.
For fans of fashion, film, and Gaga alike, this reunion of talent promises to be one of the biggest cinematic events of 2026. One thing’s certain: when The Devil Wears Prada 2 struts back onto the screen, it’s going to be fabulous.
