Gird your loins as The Devil Wears Prada 2 enters the new era of fashion and tech with a gobsmacking face-off between Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt. The much-awaited sequel to the 2006 cultural phenomenon releases in May 2026.
Fashion enthusiasts, take note: Miranda Priestly will be returning to theaters on May 1, 2026. After almost two decades, the sequel is set to bring back most of its iconic cast.

Meanwhile, Tucci, who played art director Nigel, gave telling answers to queries about the sequel's shoot schedule, fueling fan speculation. "I cannot answer that question on the grounds that it will incriminate so many people," Tucci revealed to People.
The Devil Wears Prada 2 may find inspiration in Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns, the 2013 novel sequel by Lauren Weisberger. It brings Andy and Emily back together in the publishing industry, just as Miranda emerges again in their lives. But the movie will give a new plot inspired by today's digital media environment, per Variety.
Coming back behind the camera are producer Wendy Finerman of the original film and screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna. Negotiations are reportedly ongoing for David Frankel to direct the sequel.
The Devil Wears Prada (2006), which earned more than USD 326 million globally, is now available for streaming on Disney+ and Hulu. Its sequel has taken over Avengers: Doomsday 's initial release date and shall now grace theaters on May 1, 2026. That's all.

Fantastic Four first reactions say Marvel dials down the noise, turns up the heart in cosmic reboot: ‘Emotional punch'

Marvel hosted a special screening of Fantastic Four: First Steps five days ahead of its global release, and if early reactions are any clue, this might be the comeback the company has been been dying for. The film already had eyeballs thanks to its crossover with Avengers: Doomsday, but even as a standalone, it's holding its ground. From visuals to casting, critics are raving about the reboot's bold direction, picture perfect casting, stunning visuals, and a surprisingly strong emotional core. Here's what critics are saying online. Marvel's first family has elicited a strong response from critics, something that might just reignite that old spark fans had for the MCU. If it hits big with audiences and pulls off a box office win, this could mark Marvel's second comeback moment this year, right after Thunderbolts* revived the modern MCU era. The first press screening drew comparisons to Interstellar and Guardians of the Galaxy in terms of feels and ambition to have a new installment.

Fans decode his cryptic Robert Downey Jr comment The movie stars stretchy Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), invisible woman Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby), human torch Johnny Storm (Joseph Quinn), and rock monster Ben Grimm, aka the Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach). Critics are calling it a 'visual feast,' with Brandon Davis praising the film's 'immaculate' effects, especially in scenes featuring Silver Surfer and Galactus. Davis added, 'Fantastic Four: First Steps gets a lot right — it looks and feels like a top-tier Marvel film again.' Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby are garnering praise for their electrifying chemistry that's actually worth the hype. So far, not many are finding much to complain about. People's Sharareh Drury called Kirby 'a shooting star,' praising her command over the role and how she stands out even in a team full of scene-stealers. Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach also received strong reactions, with their excellent comic timing and emotional beats striking a chord with the audience. Julia Garner's version of Silver Surfer has apparently brought the character to life, in a way that's 'haunting, powerful, and unforgettable.' Also read: Who is 'world eater' Galactus and the female silver surfer Shalla Bal who feature in the trailer of The Fantastic Four First Steps About the action set-pieces, critics say while it's not extravagant, it's polished and fits into the film's stunning cosmic sequences. But the aspect making Fantastic Four such a film to discuss doesn't even lie with the action, it's about the emotions that exceeded expectations. Multiple early viewers pointed out that the film doesn't just build a universe, it gives the characters room to breathe, connect, and grow. George Mckay: 'Fantastic Four Quite possibly the best Marvel Studios film ever released. Absolutely loaded with talent and standout performances from Vanessa Kirby and Joseph Quinn. If you thought the MCU died with Endgame, think again. Thoughtfully crafted and easily a genre-defining classic.' Brian Long Films: 'I came in tempered but #FantasticFour is truly a return to form for the MCU, the opening minutes blew my socks off in IMAX. Gardner's & Quinn's work stood out to me the most. Galactus gives this film real stakes and his presence is felt even off screen, incredible miniature work!' Next Best Picture editor-in-chief Matt Neglia: 'Combined with Matt Shakman's snappy, confident storytelling, this is an intriguing & satisfying first step for Marvel's new team (easily the best depiction of this quartet on-screen to date) as the MCU continues to regain control of the ship & steer it closer to 'Doomsday.'' In a behind-the-scenes reveal, Shakman confirmed that John Malkovich was originally cast as Red Ghost, but his scenes were cut. 'It broke my heart,' he admitted, but said the decision was necessary to maintain focus on the core story. As Marvel prepares for Phase 6, Fantastic Four: First Step's box office will reveal whether the Superhero movie still stands a chance. So far, its a bold reset that may have finally put Marvel back on track. Fantastic Four: First Steps releases on July 25.

Vampire Diaries actor Paul Wesley engaged to 25-year-old girlfriend Natalie as ex-wife Ines de Ramon's romance with Brad Pitt heats up

Hollywood star Paul Wesley is officially engaged. The Vampire Diaries actor, 42, popped the question to 25-year-old model Natalie Kuckenburg, who showed off her giant diamond ring on Instagram on July 19. She shared a black-and-white shot of them holding hands, with the oval-cut rock front and centre. The caption was simple and straight to the point: 'Yes 🤍 Always and forever.' Wesley and Natalie have reportedly been together since 2022. He was previously married to jewellery designer and executive Ines de Ramon. Shortly after Natalie announced their engagement, Wesley also took to Instagram to share yet another cosy snap of the duo on his stories, with her ring in full view. Just days before, the couple had been vacationing in Italy, first soaking in Tuscany and then heading to the Amalfi Coast, where they were spotted kissing. The actor had earlier shared multiple photos from their time together, calling it 'a beautiful time in Tuscany.' Natalie commented: 'The best time!!'

They were photographed kissing, and after that, both of them posted pics from the same location, subtly confirming their dating speculations. Since then, the duo hasn't shied away from giving each other social media shoutouts.

Wesley reciprocated the feeling with a birthday post for her in June, saying, 'It's my favourite person's birthday.'

They live together but aren't rushing into marriage, not anytime soon. Brad's long, messy divorce from Angelina Jolie was only finalised a few months ago, after over eight years of dragging on. A source told Page Six, 'He said he won't marry again. Never say never, but I'd be surprised if they do.' Apparently, Brad's in a much better place now. Emotionally steady. The relationship is solid and healthy.
