Sydney Sweeney is making headlines again. This time, it’s not just because of her recent controversy. The 27-year-old actress was spotted on the set of The Devil Wears Prada 2. Filming is happening in Manhattan. It was a rainy Wednesday. She stepped out of a trailer, close to Emily Blunt. Blunt is back as Emily Charlton.
The film is directed by David Frankel, who also directed the 2006 classic. It is based on the book Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns by Lauren Weisberger. The sequel will release on May 1, 2026. The story will return to the fierce world of high fashion.
What was Sydney Sweeney wearing at the set of ‘Devil Wears Prada 2′
Sydney wore loose pants and an oversized hoodie. The hood covered most of her face. It looked like she wanted to stay unnoticed. Her role is still a mystery. She could have a big part or just a cameo. Nothing has been confirmed.
This sighting comes while she is in the middle of a media storm. Her American Eagle ad with the tagline “Sydney Sweeney has great jeans” has caused backlash. Some accused the campaign of promoting eugenics. The White House defended it. Donald Trump called it “fantastic” when told she is a registered Republican.
Fans are split. Some are excited to see her in the movie. They think she will bring something fresh. One person on X said they were “thrilled” to see her join and wondered if she could outshine Miranda Priestly. Others are upset. They say she should not be in the film. Some compared it to other reboots that failed.
Whatever her role, Sydney’s presence is creating buzz. The film already has a lot of hype. Her appearance only adds to the drama. When The Devil Wears Prada 2 arrives in 2026, people will be watching closely.
