'The Devil Wears Prada 2' has found a worthy rival in the box office with Michael Jackson, and no one knows who will win

This year is a great year for movie theaters, yes, but studios must be pulling their hair out because, despite the success and profits, there is still that movie missing that surpasses 1 billion dollars. Last year, Ne Zha 2 broke that barrier very early, but in 2026 the competition is much more measured. And right now, at the box office, there are two movies competing to see who rakes in more tickets: on one side, The Devil Wears Prada 2. On the other, Michael.

This year is a great year for movie theaters, yes, but studios must be pulling their hair out because, despite the success and profits, there is still that missing film that surpasses 1 billion dollars. Last year, Ne Zha 2 broke that barrier very early, but in 2026 the competition is much more measured. And right now, at the box office, there are two movies competing to see who rakes in more money: on one side, The Devil Wears Prada 2. On the other, Michael. And it is very difficult to guess who might come out on top when their run is over.

The Devil Wears Jackson

On one hand, Meryl Streep’s movie has already grossed 433 million dollars in just a week and a half, far surpassing what was earned by its first part (and its budget, of course). And, for now, it has a completely clear outlook until the arrival of The Mandalorian and Grogu, so it can continue racking up millions as if nothing happened. The 1 billion mark is out of the question, because in fact it has its great rival right in front making “Hee-hee!”.

Michael has demonstrated the audience’s hunger for musical biopics of great stars (especially if they are Michael Jackson, of course) and it has already surpassed 577 million worldwide. Although it may not reach the box office of Bohemian Rhapsody (which made 910 million worldwide), it can already be considered an overwhelming success, and in fact, the only question is what its ceiling is.

Honestly, the movie I would have liked to see leading this race is The Detective Sheep, which is exactly what is most missed in the current lineup, but one doesn’t always get what they want. In a world without innocence, there were too many talking sheep and not enough moonwalks and brand suits, apparently. Oh.

The director of 'The Devil Wears Prada' wants to make the third part already. How original

For years and years, fans of The Devil Wears Prada have wanted, by any means, a sequel. And it has taken 20 years, but it has been worth it: it has something to say, its actresses are in their moment of glory, and the audience has responded with over 250 million dollars raised in about 10 days. The problem is that, given that Meryl Streep is 76 years old, it may not be wise to wait another two decades for a third installment. The Devil has escaped At this point, this news is like explaining that water is wet, but the truth […]

For years and years, fans of The Devil Wears Prada have wanted, by any means, a sequel. And it has taken 20 years, but it has been worth it: it has something to say, its actresses are in their prime, and the audience has responded with over 250 million dollars raised in about 10 days. The problem is that, given that Meryl Streep is 76 years old, it may not be wise to wait another two decades for a third part.

Don Diablo has escaped

At this point, this news is like explaining that water is wet, but the truth is that, after years of evasions, it is a pleasure to see them speak clearly about how they want to add a handful of millions more to their bank accounts. Especially David Frankel, the director, whose films outside the saga have been, to be kind, a monumental failure. At 67 years old, Frankel has once again tasted the sweetness of success and, obviously, wants to repeat it as soon as possible.

“I said ‘Never say never again’ and here we are. So I certainly would never say ‘Never say never again’ again.” If it serves as consolation, that’s exactly what happened to Sean Connery when he said he would “never say never again” to playing James Bond, only to do it a few years later in a movie titled… Never Say Never Again. Ouch, the irony.

Streep has also said that if they want to make a third part, it has to be now or never, to which the director simply responded, “Let’s see what happens. If there were an opportunity to revisit the characters and spend a few months with these fabulous performers again, I would obviously do it.” In Hollywood language, it means “Please, let’s sign already, I need a new yacht,” just so you know.

The real Emily from 'The Devil Wears Prada' reveals who she really is

In a revealing episode of Vogue’s The Run-Through podcast, Leslie Fremar, a renowned celebrity stylist, identified herself as the inspiration behind Emily Charlton, the antagonist character from the famous novel The Devil Wears Prada, published over two decades ago. This novel, written by Lauren Weisberger, has been a reference in the fashion industry and has influenced how workplace dynamics are perceived, especially in the competitive world of styling and fashion.

How original

Fremar shared her story and her connection to the character that has been portrayed by actress Emily Blunt in the 2006 film adaptation. In the podcast, she highlighted the similarities and differences between her real life and the fictional representation, adding a new layer of context to the iconic role that, for years, has been both admired and criticized for its ambition and, at times, its toughness at work.

Since its publication, The Devil Wears Prada has been the subject of numerous analyses and has sparked debates about power dynamics in the workplace, fashion, and the role of women in these environments. Fremar’s revelation not only provides a personal perspective on the character but also invites listeners to reflect on how individual experiences can influence the creation of iconic characters in pop culture.

With this testimony, Fremar also joins the conversation about female empowerment and the need to listen to the voices that have been inspired or caricatured in the entertainment industry. Thus, their intervention in the podcast is not only a personal account but also a new context for understanding a work that has left a lasting mark on contemporary culture.

How 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' is everywhere, from soft drinks to makeup

The highly anticipated sequel to The Devil Wears Prada will premiere on May 1, 2023, with projections of earning $66 million in its opening weekend. This expected success is partly due to the more than a dozen strategic partnerships that Disney has secured with major brands, including Lancôme, L’Oréal Paris, and Starbucks, to develop creative marketing campaigns aligned with the film’s theme.

The highly anticipated sequel to The Devil Wears Prada will premiere on May 1, 2026, with projections of earning $66 million in its opening weekend.

This expected success is partly due to the more than a dozen strategic partnerships that Disney has secured with major brands, including Lancôme, L’Oréal Paris, and Starbucks, to develop creative marketing campaigns aligned with the film’s theme.

The Devil Drinks from Starbucks

Unlike the first installment, where brands appeared as incidental elements, the sequel is intended for a much more focused and organized collaboration. The campaigns have been uniquely designed for each partner, avoiding the use of movie material and prioritizing immersive experiences and exclusive content.

For example, brands like L’Oréal and Diet Coke are organizing activations in New York, with pop-ups and limited edition products to promote the film.

In an effort to leverage the enduring popularity of the first film—which has maintained its relevance for 20 years—Disney has created a series of partnerships that are both relevant and innovative. Lylle Breier, executive vice president of Disney, emphasized that careful work has been done to build the best marketing collaboration program ever launched, always seeking a sophisticated execution that resonates with the audience.

The campaigns include interactive activations and unique events, such as the effort by Google and Samsung to integrate innovative technology into their promotions.

The collaborations have been structured as if they were a fashion collection, ensuring that each piece is different but feels cohesive within the world of The Devil Wears Prada 2. This suggests that the film will not only be presented as entertainment but as a cultural experience that allows consumers to connect more deeply with the content.

Sydney Sweeney was set to appear in the most anticipated sequel of the year, but her role has been completely cut

The long-awaited sequel to the iconic movie The Devil Wears Prada, titled The Devil Wears Prada 2, will finally hit theaters on April 30. Directed by David Frankel, this comedy picks up the story of Andy Sachs, played by Anne Hathaway, who reunites with the feared Miranda Priestly, portrayed by Meryl Streep, to try to save Runway magazine from an editorial scandal.

The long-awaited sequel to the iconic film The Devil Wears Prada, titled The Devil Wears Prada 2, will finally hit theaters on April 30. Directed by David Frankel, this comedy picks up the story of Andy Sachs, played by Anne Hathaway, who reunites once again with the feared Miranda Priestly, portrayed by Meryl Streep, to try to save Runway magazine from an editorial scandal. Among the dilemmas they face, Andy seeks new investments and turns to her former colleague, Emily Charlton, played by Emily Blunt, who has risen in the fashion world with an important position at Dior.

Without Sydney Sweeney

Despite expectations, not all filmed moments have made their way into the final cut. Sydney Sweeney, known for her role in Euphoria, filmed a three-minute scene in which she portrayed a fictional version of herself, in a meeting at the Dior offices. However, this scene was not included in the film due to a “creative decision” that the direction deemed necessary for the flow of the narrative.

Another character that did not meet expectations was Conrad Ricamora, who played Andy’s roommate. His role was cut after receiving negative reviews in test screenings, as the audience did not understand his relevance in the story.

In an interesting turn of events, Anna Wintour, the influential content director of Condé Nast, visited the set. Although her cameo turned out to be somewhat mishap due to a filming error, Wintour had the opportunity to suggest changes, including the simple yet significant modification of the floral decorations in the offices, advocating for a style more in line with Dior’s aesthetic.

This impressive number positions it as the most viewed trailer in the history of 20th Century Studios, far exceeding initial expectations.

Millions and millions of dresses

The first trailer for the sequel had already set a record for comedies with 181.5 million views upon its debut, but the new preview has not only surpassed that, but it has also entered the top 10 most viewed trailers in 24 hours, a list generally dominated by superhero productions. Among the exceptions are Transformers: Rise of the Beasts and the remake of The Lion King, which garnered 238 million and 224.6 million, respectively.

This wave of interest generated by the trailer raises questions about the box office performance of the film, scheduled for its exclusive theatrical release on April 30, 2026. The first installment, released 20 years ago, grossed $326.7 million, and it is speculated that the sequel could surpass this figure, despite an estimated budget of $150 million, although this figure has not yet been officially confirmed.

The return of iconic figures like Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci has sparked conversation around what promises to be one of the big hits of the year. As the release date approaches, the anticipation continues, leaving fans and analysts waiting to see how this enthusiasm will translate at the box office.
