The Devil Wears Prada 2: Full Cast at a Glance
Besides the leading cast of Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway, the film also stars Emily Blunt, Stanley Tucci, Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, Patrick Brammall, Caleb Hearon, Helen J. Shen, Pauline Chalamet, B.J. Novak, Conrad Ricamora, Tracie Thoms, and Tibor Feldman.
That ensemble alone explains a large chunk of the film’s strong opening. This is not a sequel that assembled a diluted cast — it expanded in nearly every direction.
What Lies Ahead — and the Bigger Picture
If it maintains a good run ahead, it will emerge as a Clean Hit venture at the box office. Based on current trends, it should overtake Lee Cronin’s The Mummy‘s lifetime cume. Whether it will also surpass Michael will be an interesting watch.
And then there’s the broader story that The Devil Wears Prada 2 is now part of. Hollywood movies are having a great year in India, with three back-to-back successes — Project Hail Mary, Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, and Michael. The Devil Wears Prada 2 is likely to be the fourth Hollywood success in India this year. Roonby
