Overview

• Wintour said in a podcast interview that she found the 2006 film highly enjoyable and very funny, praising Meryl Streep and the ensemble while describing the Miranda Priestly figure as a caricature.
• She recalled attending the premiere wearing Prada and said she had no idea what the film would be about, noting the fashion world’s early concern over how she might be portrayed.
• For years she avoided direct comparisons to Miranda, previously telling the BBC it was for audiences and colleagues to decide whether similarities exist.
• In June she stepped down from running U.S. editorial operations at Vogue but remains Condé Nast’s global chief content officer and Vogue’s global editorial director.
• A sequel is in production with Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci returning, and it is slated for a May 2026 theatrical release.
