Anne Hathawaydoesn’t thinkThe Devil Wears Pradawould work again today for one practical reason.
“I don’t know if there can be [a sequel movie],” said Hathaway. “I just think that movie was in a different era, you know? Now, everything’s gone so digital, and that movie centered around the concept of producing a physical thing. It’s just very different now.”
“Although,” she continued, “it is tempting to think about Andy and Emily needing to get Miranda her coffee and she’s somewhere in Europe. And then along the way they pick up Stanley Tucci in Italy, who’s at a restaurant. It’s tempting, but I don’t think it’s gonna happen.”
Hathaway did suggest rebooting the movie with a new cast: “But they could relaunch it. They could find new people and do it. Do you think they’d let us do that?”

Last year, thefilmmakers toldEntertainment Weeklyabout the possibility of a movie sequel.
Director David Frankel said the studio “didn’t ask for” a sequel but “we had a meeting where we said, ‘What could we do if there was a sequel?’ Maybe it was stupid; we felt like, no, this story has been told.”
