The original film was both a critical and commercial success, and even earned two Oscar nominations—including Best Actress for Streep. While sequel talk lingered for years, most of the cast initially showed little to no interest in revisiting their characters. Eventually, they all came around to the idea, and thus, The Devil Wears Prada 2 was born.
The sequel, which hit theaters on May 1, 2026, has been met with strong reviews from both critics and audiences and is also performing well at the box office. With that in mind, let’s take a look at the cast’s salaries.
Meryl Streep

Salary: $12.5 million
Net Worth: $100 million
Meryl Streep, who reprises her role as ruthless fashion editor Miranda Priestly, reportedly earned $12.5 million for The Devil Wears Prada 2, according to Variety. Sources told the outlet she could’ve negotiated for more, but she wanted to share the love with her castmates.
Beyond her upfront salary, Streep also secured a major box office bonus tied to the film’s theatrical performance. Sources said The Devil Wears Prada 2 is already surpassing key milestones, and she could end up making over $20 million.
Funnily enough, Celebrity Net Worth—which estimates Streep’s fortune at $100 million—previously reported that the three-time Oscar winner typically makes $20 million per film these days, so it seems like things may work out in the end.
Emily Blunt

In the negotiating room, Streep reportedly made sure that she and her co-stars Emily Blunt and Anne Hathaway would earn equal salaries. Two sources told Variety that the trio locked down a “favored nations” deal, meaning Blunt and Hathaway also earned $12.5 million to reprise their roles as Emily Charlton and Andy Sachs, respectively.
Blunt and Hathaway also received box office bonuses that are expected to bring in a nice additional payday for them.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Blunt shares a combined estimated net worth of about $100 million with her husband, actor and filmmaker John Krasinski. However, Blunt’s become one of the highest-paid actresses these days; n 2020 alone, she earned $22.5 million.
At the time, Forbes reported that after A Quiet Place (2018) became a box office hit, the Oscar-nominated actress negotiated an eight-figure upfront salary for the 2021 sequel. She also earned seven figures for her role in 2021’s Jungle Cruise.
Anne Hathaway

Celebrity Net Worth put Hathaway’s net worth at around $80 million. Like Streep and Blunt, Hathaway’s also one of the most in-demand and highest-paid actresses of today’s day and age.
Her films have reportedly grossed more than $6.8 million globally, and she’s starred in beloved movies such as The Princess Diaries (2001) and its 2004 sequel, The Dark Knight Rises (2012), Les Misérables (2012), and Interstellar (2014).
