Overview
- The film opens Thursday in Latin America and Friday in the U.S. and Canada, reuniting Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci.
- The promotional push pairs a high-fashion avant-premiere at Buenos Aires’ MALBA museum with Runway, a Lady Gaga and Doechii single released April 9.
- Early reactions vary, with some critics praising the cast and nostalgia while others say the story feels less connected than the 2006 film.
- The new plot centers on Runway’s fight to stay relevant in a social media age, with Andy returning in a higher editorial role during a media crisis.
- New faces include Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, and B. J. Novak, while a Sydney Sweeney cameo was cut and an Adrian Grenier cameo was considered but did not happen.
