Anne Hathaway reveals she hasn’t watched The Devil Wears Prada in ‘over a decade’ and admits why she doesn’t want to make a sequel

This June marks the 18th anniversary of the beloved 2006 film The Devil Wears Prada, though Anne Hathaway has barely watched it in the near two decades since.

The 41-year-old actress appeared in a new video for Vanity Fair where she rewatches some of her old movies, including The Devil Wears Prada, after she made headlines for her ‘toxic online identity’ costing her movie roles.

This also comes weeks after she opened up on the Happy Sad Confused podcast about why she doesn’t want a sequel to The Devil Wears Prada.

After watching a shot where Hathaway’s character Andy goes into the office of Miranda Priestly (Meryl Steep), she gasped and paused the video.

‘Just so you understand, all of you have seen this movie way more recently than I have. It’s been, if not over a decade, maybe two decades since I’ve seen this movie, so this is, like, amazing,’ Hathaway began.

After showing a shot of Anne and Meryl from the film, Hathaway commented on the way Meryl carried herself on set.

‘I was there the first time Meryl walked into that set, and I saw the way she respected the work of our production designer, but also like crafted it into something more like the way she saw the character,’  Hathaway said.

The actress added that she was, ‘such a sponge around her,’ adding she, ‘just wanted to absorb everything’ about her work.

She also praised wig-maker J. Roy Helland for the wig Meryl wore, adding he is, ‘next level at his craft.’

The scene Hathaway was watching with Andy in Miranda’s office early in the film also includes a line where Miranda says she has, ‘no style or sense of fashion.

She also commented on Andy’s costume, joking it was, ‘post-grad frump gorgeousness.’

‘I remember thinking the corduroy of the jacket felt like the right choice, and I knew that that color sweater, that kind of bruised lilac wasn’t the most flattering on me,’ she said with a laugh.

After watching the scene, Hathaway was asked if, when shooting the film if she had ‘any sense of how huge it would become?’

She answered, ‘Yeah, I did. I did. Not as huge as it’s become, but it just had a magnetic quality to me, that I had to be a part of it.’

Hathaway did admit, ‘Not this, though, not the way it’s sort of woven into the culture and it’s become such a touchstone for so many people.’

‘I didn’t realize it was gonna have such a lasting impression, so I didn’t realize it was gonna leave such a legacy,’ Hathaway admitted.

The Devil Wears Prada was a huge hit, taking in $326 million worldwide from just a $35 million budget, but Hathaway admitted on Happy Sad Confused there was never any real movement on a sequel, despite the box office success.

‘Sometimes things should be cherished and preserved in this bubble and it’s okay,’ she explained.

‘And I think – didn’t Meryl say something funny about it? They asked her about it, “Would she ever do a sequel?” and she went, ‘Yeah, if I don’t have to lose the weight.’ But I think she said “the f—ing weight,”‘ she admitted.

Back in 2012, Streep was interviewed by Access Hollywood when asked about a sequel as she said, ‘Sure, I mean, I’d have to lose the f—ing weight, but I would do that, yeah.’
