A star-studded soundtrack for a highly anticipated sequel? Groundbreaking.
On Friday (May 1), the official Devil Wears Prada 2 soundtrack arrived on digital service providers, featuring three new songs from Grammy-winning pop icon Lady Gaga. “Runway,” the Doechii-assisted house-pop banger that previewed the full collection a few weeks ago (April 10), is sandwiched between Gaga’s two other contributions to the soundtrack: “Shape of a Woman” and “Glamorous Life.”
“Die On This Hill” breakout Sienna Spiro also recorded a new song for the movie (“Material Lover”), as did Cuban-Italian singer-songwriter Izzy Escobar (“Evergreen Avenue”).
The remainder of the soundtrack is comprised of some of the swankiest pop tunes of the 2020s, including SZA’s “Saturn,” The Marías’ “No One Noticed,” Dua Lipa’s “End of an Era,” Laufey’s “Mr. Eclectic,” RAYE’s “Worth It,” Ledisi’s “Daydreaming,” Olivia Dean’s “Nice to Each Other” and Miley Cyrus & Brittany Howard’s “Walk of Fame.” The soundtrack for the first Devil Wears Prada film, which hit theaters in 2006, similarly compiled major pop hits, including Madonna’s “Vogue” and U2’s “City of Blinding Lights.”
All of the key players from the original movie have returned, including Meryl Streep (as Miranda Prisetly), Anne Hathaway (as Andrea “Andy” Sachs), Emily Blunt (as Emily Charlton) and Stanley Tucci (as Nigel Kipling). The film hits theaters on Friday (May 1), and to bookend its release weekend, the Devil Wears Prada 2 cast is expected to have a major presence at Monday’s MET Gala (May 4). Ahead of the New York-set event — which will be co-chaired by Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman and Venus Williams — Streep shared the cover of Vogue with Anna Wintour, the fashion industry titan who inspired the Oscar winner’s Devil Wears Prada character.
