Star Wars to The Devil Wears Prada 2: 10 of the best films to watch this May
By Ahang

Twenty years after The Devil Wears Prada sashayed into cinemas, a suitably glitzy sequel is here. Directed by David Frankel and scripted by Aline Brosh McKenna, the same team as the original, The Devil Wears Prada 2 stars Anne Hathaway as Andy, a journalist who cares more about hard-hitting stories than cerulean jumpers. Meryl Streep is the iconic Miranda Priestly, a magnificently waspish New York magazine editor inspired by Vogue's former editor, Anna Wintour. Stanley Tucci and Emily Blunt complete the quartet as Miranda's loyal right-hand man and her former assistant. But now that the franchise has been embraced by the fashion industry – Wintour included – can the new comedy have the same satirical edge as the first one? The BBC's Caryn James says the marketing campaign has "left question marks around whether the sequel will turn out to be a shadow of the original, without its bite".
