The Devil Wears Prada 2 had NO right being this good… so naturally we need to discuss it for two hours. 💅
This week on I Know You Didn’t Ask, Megan O’Donnell breaks down both Devil Wears Prada films — from Miranda Priestly’s reign of terror to the very real collapse of fashion media, magazine culture, and the corporate takeover of journalism.
We’re talking:
• The original 2006 movie and why it became a cultural obsession
• Anna Wintour comparisons & the gender politics of “difficult” women
• Andy Sachs’ iconic fashion glow-up
• The sequel’s commentary on layoffs, digital media, AI & media consolidation
• Why Miranda Priestly still works as a character in 2026
• Fashion journalism, Conde Nast vibes, luxury branding & the death of print
• Behind-the-scenes production details, styling, casting & iconic callbacks
Plus: cerulean sweaters, Chanel sunglasses, Adrian Grenier discourse, Meryl Streep supremacy, and why studios now spend more marketing movies than actually making them.
Available now wherever you listen to podcasts & on YouTube.
