Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep spotted across New York City as 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' filming continues: Everything we know about the high-fashion sequel
The actresses have already stepped out in an array of stylish looks since production began at the end of June. It's been nearly a month since 20th Century Studios announced that The Devil Wears Prada 2 is officially underway. Since the distribution company's Instagram announcement on June 30, the sequel appears to have picked up some serious momentum. Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep, the film's stars, have been spotted all over New York City chicly dressed in an array of coveted designer clothes. The Devil Wears Prada 2 picks up nearly 20 years after the original and will see Hathaway and Streep reprise their iconic roles. The original 2006 film, based on the novel by Lauren Weisberger, follows the career trajectory of aspiring journalist Andy Sachs (Hathaway), who gets the opportunity to work in fashion at the prestigious Runway magazine as an assistant to Miranda Priestly (Streep), the magazine's cutthroat editor in chief. She's soon thrust into the fast-paced world of high fashion, and eventually goes from being a sartorial disaster to dressing in coveted designer garments. Streep's character is famously modeled after Vogue's Anna Wintour, who recently stepped down as the magazine's editor in chief. The film, which grossed $326 million at the box office worldwide, earned Streep an Academy Award nomination. Here's everything we know (so far) about The Devil Wears Prada 2. 👠 What's 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' about? The sequel will focus on Priestly as she deals with the changing tides in fashion journalism and the decline of traditional magazine publishing. The indomitable editor will be forced to confront former assistant Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt), a now ultra-successful executive for a luxury group with financing that could determine the future of Runway magazine. What's the movie's release date? The Devil Wears Prada 2 will hit theaters on May 1, 2026. Are the original cast and crew returning? Hathaway and Streep, along with Emily Blunt, Stanley Tucci and Tibor Feldman, are set to reprise their roles in the sequel, according to Variety. Details surrounding the Devil Wears Prada sequel were first reported by Deadline in 2024. Sources told the outlet that Crazy Ex-Girlfriend cocreator Aline Brosh McKenna had been tapped to write the film's sequel, which was in early development at Disney at the time. David Frankel, the original film's director, and Wendy Finerman, the original film's producer, were also reportedly in talks to return. Are there any new cast members joining? Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, Pauline Chalamet and Kenneth Branagh, who will portray the husband of Streep's character, have all been added to the cast, according to Variety. The outlet also reported that Conrad Ricamora, Helen J. Shen and Caleb Hearon are adding to the fashionable call sheet. Also joining the cast is former Bridgerton star Simone Ashley, along with Crazy Ex-Girlfriend star Rachel Bloom and the show's cocreator Patrick Brammall, per Deadline. Is the sequel being filmed in New York too? Yes! Last week, around the time filming began, New Yorkers came across a sign notifying them of filming in Midtown Manhattan. 'Cerulean' was listed as the project name — a reference to the famous monologue Streep's Priestly gives Sachs in the original film. Since then, photos of Hathaway, Streep and other of the film's stars have been snapped on the streets of Manhattan in an array of high-fashion garments, from Jean Paul Gaultier to Coach. Hathaway in character as Sachs, for instance, was recently spotted in a chic-but-casual Ralph Lauren Purple Label blazer, light-washed and loose-fit denim, snakeskin-printed boots and a statement Valentino Nellcôte bag. As recently as Monday morning, Hathaway was seen in a handful of outfits — a cropped white button-up and pleated green skirt; a textured red vest over a navy striped maxi dress; and a casual navy ensemble complete with a pinstripe jacket and oversize shades. Has the cast said anything about the film? Hathaway has been sharing exclusive looks at filming The Devil Wears Prada 2 on her social media accounts. Since teasing the return of Sachs with a stylish Instagram post on July 21, Hathaway has shared two more reels: one of her wearing a colorful, patchwork Gabriela Hearst design as Sachs, and the other of her explaining the significance behind a certain pair of eyeglasses. Hathaway previously voiced skepticism about The Devil Wears Prada 2 ever making it across the finish line. 'We all love each other and if somebody could come up with a way to do it, I think we'd all be crazy not to," she told V Magazine in 2024. "But there's a huge difference in the world now with technology, and one of the things about that particular story is it was about producing a physical object. Now with so much being digital, it would just be very different.' Solve the daily Crossword

‘3 Body Problem' Season 2 Just Took a Step Forward
Netflix's dazzling and complex Liu Cixin adaptation 3 Body Problem was one of io9's top TV shows of 2024. After its first season, we still had lots of questions about what would happen next—there's the small matter of that impending alien invasion, for one thing—so it was good news when creators David Benioff, D.B. Weiss, and Alexander Woo confirmed two more seasons were on the way. But that was over a year ago. Since then, we've heard nary a peep about what's going on with 3 Body Problem—until today. Two new series regulars have officially joined the series: Claudia Doumit (The Boys, Gen V) as Captain Van Rijn, and Ellie De Lange (Run Away, Wolf Hall) as Ayla. The future is closer than you think. Welcome two new series regulars for 3 Body Problem for Season 2: Claudia Doumit (The Boys) as Captain Van Rijn, and Ellie De Lange (Run Away) as Ayla. — 3 Body Problem (@3body) July 29, 2025No character descriptions beyond those names as of yet, though as Deadline reminds us, season two will take place as 'as the alien invasion nears, humanity prepares—on Earth and elsewhere.' The first season drew mostly from the first and second books in the Chinese author's Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy, though it adapted and altered the story to fit a more global canvas. If casting is hitting the trades, that must mean there's some major forward momentum on the second installment. When might we expect 3 Body Problem season two? Only Netflix knows, but we'll keep you posted as we learn more. Want more io9 news? Check out when to expect the latest Marvel, Star Wars, and Star Trek releases, what's next for the DC Universe on film and TV, and everything you need to know about the future of Doctor Who.

Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson Enjoying ‘Happy Reunion' Amid Romance Rumors: ‘The Spark Is Obvious' (Exclusive)
Joshua Jackson and Katie Holmes brought on the nostalgia when they reconnected for a film project in the Big Apple last week. 'The spark between them is very obvious and very natural, it's been a blissfully happy reunion for them,' an insider exclusively tells Star of the former Dawson's Creek costars. 'They're spending a lot of time together off set, apparently they've been dressing in disguise so they can enjoy the city together without getting mobbed,' added the source. Holmes, 46, and Jackson, 47, were photographed on the set of her new movie in New York City on July 21, more than two decades after captivating viewers as the beloved characters Pacey and Joey in the WB show which spanned for six seasons from 1998 to 2003. The mom of one has been utilizing many of her talents as she is set to direct and star in her new feature film trilogy, Happy Hours, which will also star Jackson, Deadline reported. Happy Hours — which Holmes also helped write — follows their relationship as the duo navigates 'the challenges of careers, family responsibilities and the pursuit of love, despite life's inevitable obstacles.' When they're on set, an eyewitness tells Star that Holmes and Jackson's strong bond is evident. 'They stick to themselves mostly and are always deep in conversation,' says the source. Holmes and Jackson notably dated for around a year after Dawson's Creek debuted and ultimately went their separate ways after the hit series wrapped. She went on to date Chris Klein from 2000 to 2005, and then tied the knot with Tom Cruise in 2006. Their divorce was finalized six years later in 2012. Holmes was also romantically involved with Jamie Foxx from 2013 to 2019, and more recently, chef Emilio Vitolo Jr. from 2020 to 2021 and musician Bobby Wooten III for roughly nine months in 2022. As for Jackson, he dated Diane Kruger for around 10 years from 2006 to 2016, later exchanging vows with Jodie Turner-Smith in 2019 before calling it quits in 2023. He was also romantically linked with actress Lupita Nyong'o — although it was reported they split in 2024. With Holmes and Jackson working together again, fans are stirring with hopes of a rekindled romance. 'Clearly all the feelings are buzzing again but they're not going to go public with it anytime soon,' the source says of Holmes and Jackson. 'They're in the midst of filming and are very professional, not until they're done working would they ever cop to this.' 'Not to mention the hysteria that will happen when they do, it's going to create a frenzy, which they'll both want to avoid as long as possible,' adds the source. 'Josh is very discreet, but most of his friends assume things have moved past the just friends stage for them.' Solve the daily Crossword

Bleeding HGTV makes sweeping changes in last-ditch attempt to save network amid crisis
HGTV has cancelled seven shows in a bid to cut costs and bring the network into a new era. In recent weeks, the channel has axed Farmhouse Fixer, Izzy Does It, The Flipping El Moussas, Christina on the Coast, Married to Real Estate, Battle on the Beach, and Bargain Block, which has left fans furious. According to Deadline, the bold decision to cull the seven programs was to help free up some money. The publication reports that HGTV home renovation shows can cost up to $500,000 per episode compared to real estate shows, which costs somewhere between $200,000 and $300,000, and can be produced in a shorter period. 'Home reno shows are expensive because all of the materials are jacked up and on delay, the price of wood and marble and everything else is going up so these shows don't make as much sense anymore,' one source told Deadline. On top of budget issues, a producer claimed some talent were being paid up to $100,000 an episode and were 'afraid to say no.' 'They allowed their talent to run amok,' an insider alleged. 'They gave them some form of creative control and that's harming their own shows. They were so afraid of talent they never said no and the shows aren't delivering anymore. 'They kowtowed to talent and now they're suffering the consequences.' Additionally, the publication claimed that HGTV has been struggling with ratings, as well as competition from TikTok stars and other channels. 'I don't know if it's a show thing as much of an audience thing where a lot of people are dropping cable,' another source said. 'There was a time when people would just put on HGTV when they were cleaning.' Daily Mail has contacted HGTV for comment. Despite the bloodbath, HGTV does have new programming on the way. Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott are returning with a brand new show, Chasing the West, which is set to premiere on July 30. The eight-part series will see them help buyers find their dream ranch. Earlier this month, HGTV announced Queer Eye's Bobby Berk will front a new series, Junk or Jackpot, which 'follows collectors as they discover the true monetary value of their massive and unusual collections.' The show is executive produced by John Cena. My Lottery Dream and Zillow Gone Wild both returned to the network this month. My Lottery Dream, hosted by David Bromstad, sees him 'help clients purchase their fantasy homes with their newly attained fortunes.' 'No matter where these lucky buyers want to settle, David won't stop until he finds luxurious properties that deliver every feature on a lottery winner's wish list,' the synopsis teases. Meanwhile, Zillow Gone Wild follows comedian and actor Jack McBrayer as he searches the internet for the weirdest, wackiest and wildest properties on the market inspired by the exceedingly popular Instagram account that touts more than two million followers.

‘No Other Land' Collaborator Shot Dead By Israeli Settler In West Bank
Palestinian journalist and community leader Odeh Hathalin (aka Awdah Hathaleen), who worked with directors Basel Adra and Yuval Abraham on their Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land, has been shot dead by an Israeli settler in the Occupied West Bank. In a post on X, Israeli journalist and documentarian Abraham reported that Hathalin was shot in the chest on Monday by an Israeli settler. More from Deadline BBC, Reuters & Other World News Orgs Urge Israeli Authorities To Let Journalists Facing "Threat Of Starvation" In And Out Of Gaza Syrian TV Presenter Flees Studio Following Airstrike; Israeli Defense Minister Posts Video With Caption: "The Heavy Blows Have Started" Jerusalem Film Festival Issues Statement Ahead Of Upcoming Edition: "We Stand At A Moment Of Deep Pain & Uncertainty" The director said the man had been identified by local residents as Yinon Levi, who is among a group of Israeli settlers West Bank, who have been sanctioned by the UK and the EU, while Donald Trump rescinded restrictions at the beginning of his presidency this year. The post also featured footage of Levi brandishing a gun and firing wildly, although it was not clear whether the images were related to the incident in which Hathalin was killed. No Other Land, which won the Best Documentary Academy award this year, documents the cycle of destruction and harassment on a collection of hamlets and their Bedouin communities which lie on the Palestinian West Bank side of the 1949 Green Line. Their future has been at stake since Israel declared much of the land they are situated on a live-fire training zone in the 1980s, with their inhabitants coming under further pressure from the construction of illegal Israeli settlements on their doorstep such as Carmel and Ma'on. Hathalin's killing is reported to have taken place in a village close to Hebron and comes amid growing violence settler across the entire West Bank in recent months. There has been widespread condemnation of the killing. France's Ministry For Europe and Foreign Affairs put out a statement on Tuesday voicing the country's 'immense sadness' on learning of 'the murder' of Odeh Hathalin. 'France condemns this murder in the strongest possible terms, as well as all the deliberate violence perpetrated by extremist settlers against the Palestinian population, which has been increasing across the West Bank, particularly in Kafr Malik and the Christian village of Taybeh in recent weeks,' read the statement. 'This violence constitutes an act of terrorism. Settlers have killed more than 30 people since the beginning of 2022. Israeli authorities must take responsibility and immediately punish the perpetrators of this violence, which continues with impunity, and protect Palestinian civilians,' it added. Israeli police said they arrested an Israeli citizen for questioning on the incident.
