That’s all.
Meryl Streep and her “Devil Wears Prada” co-stars Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt had an epic reunion at the 2024 SAG Awards in LA on Saturday.
The trio presented at the show nearly 17 years after the release of the 2006 comedy/drama film, which starred Streep, 74, as the Anna Wintour-esque editor of Runway magazine, Miranda Priestly, with both Hathaway and Blunt, both 41, serving as her frazzled assistants.
Streep, who donned Prada for the event, first hilariously graced the stage solo, stumbling into the microphone stand.
Upon telling the A-List crowd that she forgot her glasses and the envelope to reveal the winner of the Male Actor in a Comedy Series category, Blunt and Hathaway rushed onstage with the missing items.
“It’s an age old question. Where does the character end and the actor begin?” Streep asked.
“Well, as we’ve just seen, Miranda Priestly and Meryl are sort of like twins. Right?” Blunt joked.
Streep claimed she was “nothing like” Priestly, to which Hathaway, dressed in a “cerulean” archival Versace gown, quoted the fictional fashion monarch’s most famous lines: “No, that wasn’t a question.”
“By all means move at a glacial pace,” Blunt said, using another one of Priestly’s lines against Streep as she struggled to open the winning envelope. The women later announced The Bear’s Jeremy Allen White as the first winner in the outstanding performance by a male actor in a comedy series category.
“The Devil Wears Prada” is based on Lauren Weisberger’s book of the same name, which details her experience working for Vogue editor Anna Wintour.
Since being released, the film has become a staple of pop culture and is often praised by viewers for its many quotable lines. Despite its popularity, however, Blunt revealed that there has never been any real momentum in creating a sequel.
“Sometimes things should be cherished and preserved in this bubble and it’s okay,” Blunt said during an appearance on the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast this month.
“And I think – didn’t Meryl say something funny about it? They asked her about it, ‘Would she ever do a sequel?’ and she went, ‘Yeah, if I don’t have to lose the weight.’ But I think she said ‘the f—ing weight,’” laughed the actress.
The statement echoes that of Hathaway, who stated in 2022 that it’s not “gonna happen.”
“There’s not going to be a sequel,” Hathaway told Entertainment Tonight.
“It’s just like, we can’t do it. It’s not gonna happen. It exists. There are other films. There will be other films. We can just watch that one [‘The Devil Wears Prada’] again,” she continued.
On Saturday night, Blunt was nominated for her role in Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer,” a role that also got her nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the upcoming Oscars.
Streep, for her part, is nominated for a SAG for the Hulu series “Only Murders in the Building” in the Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series category.
Hathaway is not nominated for any awards this year, though her rom-com “The Idea of You,” in which she plays a divorced mom who gets romantically entangled with a much younger man, is set for a March 16 release.
The SAG Awards, which have been without an official host since 2021, tapped “Ted Lasso” star Phil Dunster and “Red, White & Royal Blue” actor Taylor Zakhar Perez to serve as the show’s ambassadors.
Additional presenters at the ceremony will include Sterling K. Brown, Michael Cera, Jessica Chastain, Jeffrey Wright, Brendan Fraser, Issa Rae, Cillian Murphy, Margot Robbie, America Ferrera and Billie Eilish.
