The Return of a Fashion Icon
After two decades, the iconic characters from The Devil Wears Prada are making a comeback. Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci will reprise their roles as Miranda, Andy, Emily, and Nigel in the much-anticipated sequel. This long-awaited film has been in development for years, and now, the actors are busy promoting it through various events around the world.
One such event took place in Tokyo, where both Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway made appearances. Their presence at the event was a highlight, with fans and media alike captivated by their stylish looks. The duo, known for their iconic roles, once again demonstrated their commitment to the fashion legacy of the original film.
A Special Appearance in Tokyo
On April 6, Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway attended a special event in Tokyo for the release of The Devil Wears Prada 2. This was a significant moment, as it marked the first time that both actresses traveled to Japan together. In 2006, when the first film was released, only Hathaway had visited Japan. Now, they were there side by side, making history.
The two appeared on the red carpet, dressed in outfits inspired by the Chanel and Valentino runways. Their arrival was met with cheers from the crowd, and both actresses took the opportunity to greet the audience in Japanese. Streep, who had not visited Japan in over a decade, expressed her excitement about being there during cherry blossom season. She shared her gratitude for the warm reception, saying, “Hello Tokyo! Thank you very much. I’m so happy to be here during cherry blossom season.”
Hathaway also expressed her joy at returning to Japan, which she hadn’t done in nearly 13 and a half years. Her last visit was in 2012 for the promotion of Les Misérables. She said, “Hello, Tokyo! Thank you for creating such wonderful memories. I’ve received so much love and energy from everyone that I’m speechless; it feels like I’m dreaming.”
A Successful Promotion Event
The event was not just about fashion and celebrity appearances. It also served as an important promotional opportunity for the upcoming film. Alongside Streep and Hathaway, K from the boy band &TEAM also attended the function, adding to the excitement of the occasion.
Fans were eager to learn more about the sequel, and the event provided a platform for discussions about the film’s storyline and what to expect. One of the most anticipated topics was Anne Hathaway’s reaction to the script for the sequel.
Anne Hathaway’s First Reaction to the Script
During the fan event, Hathaway shared her initial thoughts on the script for The Devil Wears Prada 2. She revealed that her first question was, “Did Meryl read it yet? What did she think?” When she found out that Streep had read the script and loved it, she felt relieved and excited.
Hathaway described the script as everything she had hoped for, calling it “amazing.” She also praised the writer, Aline Brosh McKenna, for creating a story that exceeds expectations. According to Hathaway, the new film will take the characters in directions that fans have not yet imagined.
