According to Variety , The Devil Wears Prada 2 grossed $676 million at the global box office. This included approximately $218 million from North America and $458 million from international box offices. Disney reportedly spent around $100 million on production and $80 million on marketing. With a box office revenue of $676 million , Disney is likely to reap significant profits.
Previously, the original film, released in 2006, concluded its theatrical run with a total of $326 million – a rather impressive figure at the time. After two films, the total revenue of The Devil Wears Prada franchise has surpassed $1 billion .
Observers consider this a significant milestone for a film franchise with only two installments, especially in the context of the post-COVID-19 pandemic market. While The Devil Wears Prada has been a pop culture icon for the past two decades, reviving a beloved franchise doesn't guarantee commercial success. Many sequels, such as Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Karate Kid: Legends , and Zoolander 2 , have performed poorly, falling far short of expectations.

The Devil Wears Prada is adapted from Lauren Weisberger's 2003 novel of the same name. The work is considered a form of fiction inspired by real life, recounting her experience as an assistant to Anna Wintour, the powerful editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine.
The sequel, released exactly two decades later, marks the return of director David Frankel and screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna. The story takes place 20 years later, when Andy Sachs (played by Anne Hathaway) returns to Runway magazine as a columnist, under the powerful editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly (played by Meryl Streep).
The success of The Devil Wears Prada 2 stems not only from its nostalgic elements but also from how the film updates the story to suit a modern context. In addition, the return of a familiar cast including Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci also contributes to its strong appeal to audiences.
