The Devil Wears Prada 2 Shatters OG Movie’s All-Time Record In Just 10 Days

The Devil Wears Prada 2 is definitely the talk of the town.

Originally released quietly in 2006, The Devil Wears Prada quickly became a global success, earning over $362 million in theaters. It was a particularly popular comedy starring women, and helped launch the careers of actors like Emily Blunt, significantly raising her profile in Hollywood.

Despite the release of several new movies – including Mortal Kombat II, Sheep Detectives, and a 3D concert film of Billie Eilish’s tour – The Devil Wears Prada 2 stayed at the top of the box office, according to Variety. The Disney sequel earned another $43 million domestically, bringing its North American total to $144.8 million. Worldwide, the film has now grossed $443 million after just two weeks, with $288.4 million coming from international markets.

The highly anticipated sequel, released twenty years after the original, is a major success, breaking box office records in just ten days. With a stellar cast including Blunt, Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Stanley Tucci, the film has both drawn in new viewers and delighted longtime fans, who are excited to see what has become of the beloved characters and the film’s unique charm.

Despite debuting in second place at the box office and earning $63 million worldwide, Mortal Kombat II had a somewhat weak opening. Critics offered mixed reviews, giving it a 65% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a B grade from CinemaScore. Meanwhile, the biopic Michael is performing exceptionally well, landing in third place and already grossing an impressive $577 million – a record for its genre.

The sequel to The Devil Wears Prada begins with Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) battling her former assistant, now competitor, Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt), as they both struggle to secure advertising money in a declining print media landscape. The glamorous world of high fashion is back on the big screen, and the original cast is serving up fantastic style after a 20-year hiatus.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 is available to watch in theaters now.
