A brand-new look at The Devil Wears Prada 2? Groundbreaking.

Tickets are now on sale for the highly-anticipated sequel to The Devil Wears Prada. To celebrate, there is a new spot that shows off even more about the upcoming movie.

Set to Madonna’s song “Vogue,” the teaser finds Meryl Streep back as editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly. She knocks impatiently on a hotel room door that belongs to Anne Hathaway’s Andy Sachs.

“Pull yourself together, we have work to do. And by we, I mean you,” Miranda says to Andy.

Later in the trailer, Miranda sits at the head of a table in a board room meeting.

“And the models were encouraged to mill around like starving goats in the parking lot of a methadone clinic in New Jersey?” Miranda says. When someone in the room clears their throat in discomfort, Miranda continues, “What? What am I not allowed to say? Methadone? New Jersey?”

This teaser comes almost 20 years after Streep and Hathaway made their turns as the iconic characters in the original 2006 film. Joining them in the sequel are Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci, who reprise their roles as Emily and Nigel.

Also returning are Tracie Thoms and Tibor Feldman, who will once again play the characters Lily and Irv.

Director David Frankel, who helmed the first film, returns to direct the sequel from a script by the writer of the first film, Aline Brosh McKenna.

A new cast of characters are also coming along for the ride. They are to be played by Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, Patrick Brammall, Caleb Hearon, Helen J. Shen, Pauline Chalamet, B.J. Novak and Conrad Ricamora.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 will arrive in theaters on May 1.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News and 20th Century Studios.

Chloé Zhao has been through the awards circuit before, winning the best picture and best director Oscars in 2021 for Nomadland. Now, she’s up for three Oscars for Hamnet: best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay alongside author Maggie O’Farrell.

Hamnet, an emotional drama about how love and loss in William Shakespeare’s (Paul Mescal) personal life helped shape his enduring classic Hamlet, scored eight nods overall — including projected favorite Jessie Buckley for best actress.

Zhao tells ABC Audio awards recognition is validating as a storyteller who just wants to be seen and heard.

“When it comes to awards or things like that, and this gathering of people celebrating your work, there is an element of that — of feeling validated, of feeling seen,” she says. “And of course, you need to be careful of how far you’re gonna allow that to be the only source of validation.”

“But I’m not cynical about it,” she adds, “because to be seen and celebrated and validated by your peers, which is very much a found family for me, is an amazing feeling.”

Equally as important to Zhao has been the audience’s emotional response to the film.

“It feels like a relief, first and foremost, because we were feeling so much every day,” she says. “Even when the cameras aren’t rolling, we were feeling so much for each other and learning about ourselves. So, it would kind of suck if no one else is feeling that way but us.”

The 2026 Oscars will air on Sunday at 7 p.m. ET on ABC.

After winning multiple Oscars for movie songs, Billie Eilish may get a chance to compete in the acting categories.

ABC Audio has learned that Billie is in talks to make her film debut in an adaptation of Sylvia Plath’s The Bell Jar. Plath, a poet and author who died by suicide at age 30, wrote The Bell Jar in 1963 under a pseudonym. The semi-autobiographical novel was published a month before her death.

Oscar winner Sarah Polley will write the screenplay and direct the film; it’s not clear which role Billie will play.

Deadline was the first to report the news.

Billie got good reviews for her acting debut, which came in the 2023 Prime Video series Swarm. Her concert documentary HIT ME HARD AND SOFT: THE TOUR (LIVE IN 3D), which she co-directed with James Cameron, arrives in theaters May 8.

Marcello Hernandez does his best Harry Styles impression in a new promo for Saturday Night Live.

Harry will host and be the musical guest on the March 14 installment of the show. In the promo, Marcello dons Harry’s outfit from the BRIT Awards and apes his dance moves as he makes his way to the stage of Studio 8H, while Harry’s song “American Girls” plays. He steps to the mic, only to be interrupted by the real Harry, standing in the back of the studio with Kenan Thompson.

“What are you doing, Marcello?”

“Nothing, Harry Styles,” says Marcello, knocking the mic to the floor.

“Are those my clothes?” Harry asks.

“Yeah, sorry. I thought you weren’t coming,” Marcello replies. “I thought I would just go on as your understudy.”

“Understudy? I’m 15 minutes late because Kenan and I went out for pain au chocolat,” Harry responds, as he and Kenan hold up the French pastries. “It’s a tradition when I host.” To be clear, Harry has only hosted the show once before. 

“Tsk tsk, Marcello. You forgot the pain au chocolat,” Kenan scolds.

“I’m sorry, I just wanted to help,” Marcello says. “If you want to help, hold my pain au chocolat,” says Harry.

Marcello quickly exits the stage, while Harry gets behind the mic and says, “See you on Saturday.”

Kate Winslet might just be making her way to The Shire.

The Oscar winner is in talks to star as the female lead in the upcoming film The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, Deadline reports. The specific role she would play has not been revealed.

Warner Bros. Pictures had no comment when reached by ABC Audio.

The upcoming film is set to debut in movie theaters on Dec. 17, 2027. Andy Serkis, who has played Gollum in The Lord of the Rings franchise for decades, will direct it.

Peter Jackson and his partners Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens will produce The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, with the studio saying the creatives will be on board every step of the way.

“Yesssss, Precious. The time has come once more to venture into the unknown with my dear friends, the extraordinary and incomparable guardians of Middle-earth Peter, Fran and Philippa,” Serkis said at the time the project was announced.

Jackson, Walsh and Boyens also shared a joint statement. 

“It is an honour and a privilege to travel back to Middle-earth with our good friend and collaborator, Andy Serkis, who has unfinished business with that Stinker – Gollum!” they said.

Sir Ian McKellen, who played Gandalf the Grey in the original trilogy, revealed details about the upcoming film at the For the Love of Fantasy fan event in August 2025.

“I hear there’s going to be another movie based in Middle-earth, and it’s going to start filming in May. It’s going to be directed by Gollum, and it’s all about Gollum,” McKellen said.

“I’ll tell you two secrets about the casting: There’s a character in the movie called Frodo, and there’s a character in the movie called Gandalf,” McKellen said. “Apart from that, my lips are sealed!”

The 98th annual Academy Awards ceremony will be held Sunday, and with this group of nominations come a bunch of interesting facts. Here’s a look at some fun facts about this season’s crop of nominees.

Sinners achieved a rare feat to become the most-nominated film in Oscars history. With 16 nominations, it blew past the previous record holders La La Land, Titanic and All About Eve, which all earned 14 nominations each. Director Ryan Coogler and his producing partner and wife, Zinzi Coogler, are the first Black married couple to earn a nomination in any category. Zinzi Coogler is also the first Filipina producer and the third Black woman nominated for best picture.

International films were particularly dominant across many categories this year. Both Sentimental Value and The Secret Agent picked up many nominations across the board. Both films are up for the coveted best picture prize, as well as the best international feature film award. Stellan Skarsgård received his first-ever Oscar nom for his Sentimental Value performance, marking the first time an actor from a film not in the English language has been nominated in the best supporting actor category.

Speaking of The Secret Agent, its star Wagner Moura is the first Brazilian best actor nominee in Oscars history. He’s the third Brazilian acting nominee overall, after Fernanda Torres received a best actress nomination last year for I’m Still Here and her mother, Fernanda Montenegro, received a nomination in the same category for the 1998 film Central Station.

Much has been said about Timothée Chalamet’s feelings toward ballet and opera. But how about the fact that he is the youngest male actor since Marlon Brando, and second youngest overall, to earn three acting nominations at the Oscars. He’s also nominated for best picture as a producer on Marty Supreme, which, at 30 years and 26 days old, makes him the youngest person to ever be double-nominated for producing and acting in the same year. He just beats out Warren Beatty, who was 30 years, 10 months and 20 days old when he received those nominations for the 1967 film Bonnie and Clyde.

The Oscars will take place on Sunday at the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood. The show will air live on ABC and will also stream live on Hulu.

Third time’s a charm for Nikki Glaser.

The comedian will return to host the 84th annual Golden Globes on Jan. 10, 2027. The show will air on CBS and stream on Paramount+ in the U.S.

“I’m thrilled to host the Golden Globes for a third time, not only because it’s the greatest gig I’ve ever had, but because my sister has three kids and now we will be equal in the eyes of my parents and the Lord,” Glaser said in a press release.

Helen Hoehne, the president of the Golden Globes, expressed excitement at the thought of Glaser returning for her third time as host.

“We are thrilled to welcome Nikki back to the Golden Globes stage in 2027,” Hoehne said. “Her comedic precision, authenticity, and ability to command the room is unmatched, and we can’t wait to see what she has up her sleeve for next year’s show.”

We’ve got our first trailer for Power Ballad, the new movie starring Nick Jonas and Paul Rudd.

In the trailer we see Paul as Rick, a wedding band singer, hanging out with Nick as Danny, a boy band member, in a hotel room. As they work on music together, Rick plays Danny a song that he says he’s been working on “for years”; Danny nods and says, “Yeah, I like that.”

Next thing you know, Rick’s in the audience at one of Danny’s concerts, and everyone’s singing and swaying along as Danny sings a song he says “saved my life.” It sounds awfully familiar, so Rick checks online and reads about Danny’s new single. “That’s my song. I wrote it,” Rick exclaims.

Cut to Rick and Danny having a fistfight on a road somewhere, as Danny yells, “Do you think it is easy to turn a song into a hit?”

The official description of Power Ballad reads, “When Danny turns one of Rick’s songs into the hit that reignites his career, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves, even if it means risking everything he cares about.”

Power Ballad hits theaters June 5.
