Recently released photos from the set showcase Blunt in a striking black-and-white outfit, reaffirming her iconic look. She is seen alongside familiar faces, including Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly and Anne Hathaway as Andrea “Andy” Sachs.

While plot details for the sequel remain under wraps, reports suggest it will focus on Miranda Priestly confronting the hurdles facing print media amid the rise of digital platforms.
