If you’ve been refreshing your streaming apps waiting for The Devil Wears Prada 2 to arrive at home, the wait is almost over. The fashion-world sequel that launched on May 1 as one of 2026’s biggest hits will be available to stream starting July 29, so mark your calendar.
The film reunites Anne Hathaway as Andrea“Andy”Sachs, Emily Blunt as Emily Charlton, and Stanley Tucci as Nigel Kipling for their first return to the magazine world in two decades. But the real draw—let’s be honest—is Meryl Streep’s Miranda Priestly, still every bit as intimidating and impeccably dressed as she was back in 2006. The sequel sends Andy back to Runway magazine as features editor just as Miranda faces threats to her print empire. It’s a timely premise for a legacy sequel that actually has something to say about fashion and publishing in 2026, rather than just coasting on nostalgia.
Critics surprisingly loved it. The film holds a 77 percent critics’score on Rotten Tomatoes based on over 300 reviews, which is no small feat for a follow-up that launched 20 years after the original. The cast is stacked too—alongside the returning players, you’ve got Justin Theroux, Kenneth Branagh, Lucy Liu, Simone Ashley, and Lady Gaga, plus an impressive roster of cameos ranging from fashion icons like Naomi Campbell and Donatella Versace to media personalities like Kara Swisher.
Can’t wait until July 29? The film hits VOD platforms on June 28, giving you a chance to watch it right away if you’re willing to rent or buy. When it does land on Disney+ and Hulu next month, you’ll finally get to see what these characters have been up to all these years—and more importantly, what they’re wearing.
