According to reports, Disney is developing a sequel to the 2006 hit film "The Devil Wears Prada."
The original film was a surprise box office hit, and was widely memed and parodied. It grossed $326 million worldwide on a $35 million budget and earned multiple awards, including an Oscar nomination for Meryl Streep.
The original writer, Aline Brosh McKenna, is returning to write the script for the sequel, which is in early development stages.
While Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt are hinted to possibly reprise their roles, there is no confirmation yet on the return of Anne Hathaway or other original cast members.
The original film's producer, Wendy Finerman, is set to return for the sequel, but the director's involvement is uncertain.
The sequel's plot may focus on Miranda Priestly navigating the decline of print fashion magazines, potentially facing financial struggles at Runway, and clashing with her former assistant turned executive, Emily.
In addition to the sequel, a musical adaptation of "The Devil Wears Prada," based on the 2003 novel and 2006 film, with an original score by Elton John, lyrics by Shaina Taub, is set to debut on London's West End, with Vanessa Williams portraying Miranda Priestly.
