The Devil Wears Prada’s upcoming sequel has cast Lady Gaga in an undisclosed role. The 20th Century Studios’ follow-up to the 2006 hit, slated for a May 1, 2026 release date, will also see Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci returning. Photos of the “Poker Face” singer on set started to circulate online, spreading the news of Gaga’s casting. The 2006 film is based on Lauren Weisberger’s 2003 novel of the same name, written after she worked as Vogue editor Anna Wintour’s personal assistant. It follows journalism graduate Andy Sachs, played by Hathaway, working in New York City as an assistant to Miranda Priestly, played by Streep, who is the high-powered editor-in-chief of a fashion magazine. According to Deadline, “the sequel is expected to examine Priestley’s perspective as she faces the decline of the print industry.” Production began in June and will also see Tracie Thoms, Justin Theroux and B.J. Novak making appearances. The film comes on the heels of Gaga releasing her album Mayhem in March and headlining Coachella in July.
