The legendary Meryl Streep isn’t holding back! While promoting the highly anticipated ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’, which officially hit theaters on May 1, 2026, the Oscar winner took a playful but sharp jab at the current state of Hollywood. During an interview on the Hits Radio Breakfast Show, Streep criticized what she calls the “Marvel-ization” of movies. She argued that the typical superhero formula—clearly defined good guys vs. bad guys—has become “so boring” compared to the messy, complicated realities of real life.
Fans are already seeing exactly what she means in the new sequel. Returning as the iconic Miranda Priestly, Streep explains that this film dives into the “grey areas” of her character, showing a softer, more human side to the once-terrifying fashion editor. Reunited with Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt, and joined by new stars like Simone Ashley and Kenneth Branagh, the movie is already a box office smash. It seems audiences are ready for a break from capes and shields in favor of the “messier,” more relatable drama that only the Runway team can deliver!
