Fans are buzzing with speculation that Sydney Sweeney might have a hidden role in the highly anticipated The Devil Wears Prada sequel.
The rumors began after photos and videos obtained by TMZ and Entertainment Tonight appeared to show the Euphoria star on set in New York City on Wednesday, August 6.
In the images, Sydney Sweeney was reportedly spotted leaving a production trailer, keeping her face partially covered beneath a hood. Moments later, Emily Blunt, 42, was seen exiting another trailer under the shelter of an umbrella, further fueling curiosity about Sweeney’s possible involvement.
The sequel brings back the powerhouse original cast, including Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci, reprising their iconic roles from the 2006 hit film. Additional stars joining the project include Kenneth Branagh, Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, Simone Ashley, and Rachel Bloom, promising a star-studded follow-up.
According to Variety, the new film will follow Miranda Priestly (Streep) as she navigates her career during the decline of traditional magazine publishing. The plot will reportedly pit her against Blunt’s character, now a high-ranking executive at a luxury group whose advertising budget Priestly desperately needs.
The set has already attracted big-name visitors, with Ciara and Ashley Graham making appearances during filming. However, the possible presence of Sydney Sweeney has particularly caught fans’ attention, with many wondering if her role will be a cameo or a significant character in the storyline.
Sweeney’s schedule is already packed with major projects. She is set to portray boxing champion Christy Martin in a David Michôd-directed biopic, a role that has generated considerable excitement among her fans. Additionally, she will headline The Housemaid alongside Amanda Seyfried, directed by Paul Feig, which is slated for a December 25 release.
While neither Sweeney nor the film’s production team has confirmed her involvement in The Devil Wears Prada 2, the buzz surrounding her potential casting has added an extra layer of intrigue to one of the most anticipated sequels in recent years.
