Jul 10 2024 Share

Exciting news for fans of the iconic 2006 film “The Devil Wears Prada” – a sequel is reportedly in development at Disney. One of the original screenwriters, Aline Brosh McKenna, is in talks to write the follow-up. According to Variety, the sequel will follow Meryl Streep’s character, magazine editor Miranda Priestly, as she confronts the decline of print publications in the digital age.

US news outlet Deadline reported that the film’s original director, David Frankel, and producer, Wendy Finerman, are also in talks to return for the sequel. While it remains unclear how many of the original cast members will reprise their roles, fans are hopeful to see familiar faces.

“The Devil Wears Prada,” based on Lauren Weisberger’s 2003 novel, became a box office hit, grossing $326.7 million worldwide. The story follows Andrea Sachs, played by Anne Hathaway, as she lands a job as the assistant to Miranda Priestly, the ice-cold editor of a major New York fashion magazine.

Meryl Streep’s portrayal of Priestly earned her a Golden Globe and an Oscar nomination. The film was also a breakthrough for Hathaway and Emily Blunt, who played Miranda’s assistant Emily Charlton. In the sequel, Blunt’s character is said to have moved on to become an executive at a luxury group, with an advertising budget crucial for Priestly’s magazine.

Last year, Blunt and Hathaway reunited for Variety’s Actors on Actors series, reflecting on their experience working with Streep. Blunt fondly recalled the joy of filming and the lasting impact of the movie on her career.

As the sequel takes shape, fans eagerly anticipate the return of their favourite characters and the new challenges they will face in the evolving world of fashion and publishing.

Ħamrun Spartans Suffer 1-0 Loss In Champions League Opening
Jul 10 2024 Share

Ħamrun Spartans face an uphill battle in their Champions League campaign after a 1-0 defeat to Lincoln Red Imps in the first qualifying round first leg at the Centenary Stadium.

Lincoln’s Britto scored the decisive goal in a match where both teams ended with ten men.

The Spartans were pushed back early on when Brazilian midfielder Elionay Freitas received a straight red card after only nine minutes, leaving them a player down for most of the match. Despite this, they controlled the game well, limiting Lincoln’s chances.

Lincoln also had a player sent off just before halftime when Kike received a second yellow card, restoring numerical parity. This allowed the Spartans to dominate the second half, but they were unable to beat Lincoln goalkeeper Santiago Nauzat.

New signings Mayron, Wendell Barros, and Raphael Lopes featured for Ħamrun, but despite creating several opportunities, including a close-range header from Prsa and a shot from Corbalan, they failed to score.

A penalty awarded to Lincoln in stoppage time was overturned by VAR. The Spartans now must overcome a one-goal deficit in the second leg to advance to face Qarabag in the next round.
