Returning Stars in The Devil Wears Prada 2
The sequel to the iconic 2006 film features returning favorites such as Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci. The original film, based on Lauren Weisberger's novel, followed a young journalist navigating the competitive world of fashion under a demanding editor.
Reports suggest that the sequel will focus on Streep's character, Miranda Priestly, as she adapts to the changing dynamics of traditional magazine publishing while facing off against Blunt's character, who has risen to a powerful position in the luxury sector.

As a long-time fan of the original film, Liu expressed her joy at the opportunity to share the screen with Streep and Hathaway. "Working with Annie and Meryl in a scene was surreal. It felt like a dream come true," she shared.
