Devil Wears Prada 2 is out tomorrow and Emma has opinions about sequels to perfect movies. The original is untouchable. Nobody asked for a second act. Stanley Tucci and Emily Blunt got Walk of Fame stars the day before the release — which is either beautiful or the most aggressive press tour she has ever seen. Button: the movie is already a sequel to the ceremony.

Timely, specific, gives Emma a hot take with receipts. Blunt/Tucci Walk of Fame ceremony is the hook that makes it more than generic sequel skepticism.

Script

Okay so. The Devil Wears Prada 2 comes out tomorrow. And the day before — the literal day before — Stanley Tucci and Emily Blunt got their Walk of Fame stars. Together. At the same ceremony. With Robert Downey Jr. and Matt Damon and Meryl Streep all showing up to speak. [pause] Which is beautiful. Genuinely. But also. That is the most aggressive press tour I have ever witnessed in my life. [chuckles] Here's the thing. The original is a perfect movie. It does not have a loose thread. There is nothing left to pull. And now the sequel's first scene is basically already the ceremony. They handed us the ending before the movie even started.
