After grossing over $677 million at the box office, The Devil Wears Prada 2 was seen by a lot of people. But if you didn't catch the fashion-centred drama on the big screen – or simply want to rewatch it – then you might be waiting until it streams on Disney+.
You'll need to hang on for just another month, though, as it has been confirmed that the popular film will come to both Disney+ and Hulu on 29 July – just under three months since its theatrical release.
The film is set two decades after the events of its predecessor, with Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway) returning to Runway as the magazine finds itself in a crisis. She is hired as the new features editor, but finds it difficult to attract a new generation of readers.

Of course, throughout it all, she reunites with editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) and her dedicated right-hand Nigel Kipling (Stanley Tucci), while Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt) is now working at Dior.
As well as the aforementioned cast members, David Frankel and Aline Brosh McKenna returned to their respective roles of director and screenwriter, while new stars include Simone Ashley, Kenneth Branagh, Lucy Liu and Justin Theroux.
What to Read Next
The film was lauded by critics, with Rotten Tomatoes reporting a solid approval rating of 77% from 332 reviews. This is actually a higher mark than its predecessor, which had a score of 75% from 196 reviews.
In Digital Spy's three-star review of The Devil Wears Prada 2, we called it a "rare nostalgic sequel that justifies its existence", while reserving praise for the performances from the cast.
"[It's] at its strongest when the main four are sharing the screen. Streep, Hathaway, Blunt and Tucci all slip effortlessly back into their roles like they're popping on a comfy pair of Louboutins," we added.
While fans may be disappointed that they have to wait another month for the film to hit streaming, the drama itself took 20 years to make. Frankel, however, explained that the long gap proved beneficial.

"The truth is, for almost two decades, we just didn't have a good enough idea," he said. "There was no way anyone could convince us to meet with Meryl Streep to pitch her a bad idea.
"Aline realised that the world of fashion and journalism had changed dramatically since we shot the first movie in 2005, and wouldn’t it be fascinating to see how these characters we still love manoeuvre through this new, challenging landscape?"
The Devil Wears Prada 2 comes to Disney+ and Hulu on 29 July.
