The Devil Wears Prada is being turned into a Broadway musical and the lead roles have been cast!

Tony winner Beth Leavel will be playing the role of Miranda Priestly, which was originated by Meryl Streep in the movie. She is best known for her roles in the Broadway musicals The Drowsy Chaperone, The Prom, Bandstand, and Mamma Mia.

Coincidentally, Meryl is playing Beth‘s role in the movie version of The Prom, which is currently being filmed. They also played the same role in Mamma Mia!

Taylor Iman Jones, best known for her work in the Broadway musical Head Over Heels, will take on Anne Hathaway‘s role of Andy Saks.

The musical will have its world premiere in Chicago in the summer of 2021 before going to Broadway after that. The show was originally supposed to premiere in the summer of 2020.

“We realized that we wanted more time to work on the show. Our creative team members are in demand around the world with ridiculous schedules. The new dates mean that not only do we get an ideal theatre in Chicago (the CIBC Theatre), it also allows our New York landlord to confirm the Broadway venue, which means we have more time to coordinate our physical design, marketing, and sales plans accordingly,” producer Kevin McCollum said in a statement.

The 2020 Met Gala‘s theme has officially been revealed: About Time: Fashion and Duration!

The New York Times is describing the theme as “inspired in part by the novels of Virginia Woolf and the theories of the early-20th-century French philosopher Henri Bergson, whose admittedly somewhat obscure but also important musings on time posited it as a constantly mutating stream rather than a series of discrete moments.”

The co-chairs this year include Louis Vutton artistic director Nicolas Ghesquière, Anna Wintour, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Emma Stone and a big special addition – Meryl Streep! This will be Meryl’s first time attending the annual event.

The 150th anniversary of the Met Gala will take place on May 7, 2020.

If you missed it, Anna Wintour recently revealed the one person she would not ask back to fashion’s biggest night.

Meryl Streep gets into a group pose with her co-stars from Little Women during a special screening and panel event held at DGA in Los Angeles on Wednesday night (October 23).

The legendary actress plays Aunt March in the upcoming flick, opposite Saoirse Ronan, Laura Dern, Florence Pugh, and Timothee Chalamet, who were all at the event along with writer/director Greta Gerwig.

During the panel event, the cast opened up about how they all got into character and Meryl talked about how she became the penny-pinching Aunt March.

“She [Greta Gerwig] let me do what I wanted,” she said. “Aunt March is all about the money. It’s how the world measures value. She is the reality check on all the airy-fairy, highfalutin, idealistic people who populate her family, and that she basically underwrites.”

Saoirse even revealed that one day, Meryl ate fast food to get into character.

“I was trying to save money,” Meryl quipped.

Little Women is set to open on Christmas Day.

FYI: Saoirse wore a Preen dress, Frame x Tamara Mellon boots and Irene Neuwirth jewelry. Laura is wearing a Johanna Ortiz top.
