The Devil Wears Prada 2 added $5.6M on its 17th day, pushing the domestic total to $175.9M. The sequel has shown better holding power than many expected for a comedy in the current theatrical environment.
The film benefited from strong reviews and the star power of Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt. Even as bigger action titles dominated the conversation, it has quietly maintained a steady presence at the box office. At 1.76x of its $100M budget, it has already moved into clear profit territory.
Whatβs notable is how well it has performed despite arriving in a crowded month. The combination of nostalgia, sharp writing, and strong word-of-mouth has helped it avoid the steep drops that many mid-budget comedies suffer.
Solid result: Reaching close to $176M domestic puts the film in a healthy position. It now looks likely to finish as one of the more profitable non-franchise releases of the summer.
