  • "The Devil Wears Prada" is getting a sequel, multiple outlets have reported.
  • Puck reported Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt are set to return.
  • There's no word yet on whether Anna Hathaway will reprise her role as Andy Sachs.

Meryl Streep may return as the iconic Miranda Priestly in a "The Devil Wears Prada" sequel, Puck reported.

The 2006 original, which is considered a classic, follows journalism graduate Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway) as she struggles to survive as the junior assistant to high fashion magazine editor Miranda Priestly.

On Monday, Puck reported without citing sources that the new film will see Priestly at the end of her career, with the publishing industry in decline. Emily Blunt, who played Priestly's assistant, has also signed on to the film, Puck reported.

Deadline, Variety, and The Hollywood Reporter cited unnamed sources to report that the cast members haven't been confirmed yet, contradicting Puck's report.

Representatives for Disney, Streep, and Blunt did not immediately respond to a comment request from Business Insider.

From "Mean Girls" to "Beetlejuice," Hollywood has been churning out plenty of reboots and sequels to popular movies in recent years in the hope of securing easy financial wins.

"The Devil Wears Prada" was nominated for two Oscars and was a commercial success, making $326.7 million worldwide. It quickly became a cultural landmark, with fans continuing to discuss, dissect, and admire the movie years.

Here's everything we know about "The Devil Wears Prada" sequel.

The film is reportedly in early development
