This isn't shocking news, as since it was revealed that The Devil Wears Prada sequel will be released on May 1 of next year, we've all known that filming likely has to take place rather soon. We now have reluctant confirmation from Emily Blunt (who of course plays the eponymous character Emily in the original) that filming will begin next month (see 1:01):
It's obvious that producers don't want to reveal much. Very little in fact has been shared about the storyline, other than that Blunt's character may be sort of bigwig executive whose advertising dollar Miranda needs to keep Runway afloat in the increasingly digitally-dominated world of media.
I look forward to maybe seeing some set picks within a few weeks?!
