The final trailer for The Devil Wears Prada 2 has arrived, and it’s already turning heads not just for its return to the glossy, cut-throat world of fashion, but for its standout soundtrack moment. At the centre of the excitement is ‘Runway’, an original track by Lady Gaga and Doechii, a collaboration that feels both high-fashion and undeniably celebratory.

The song pulses throughout the brand-new trailer, weaving its way through dramatic glimpses of the upcoming film’s new storyline and familiar aesthetic. With lyrics that drip in runway confidence and flair. The track doesn’t just complement the visuals; it elevates them. Doechii kicks off the track, rapping, “Serve a little sass with a little side of ass,” while Gaga chimes in, reminding audiences, “You were born for the runway”

This pairing brings together two artists who have long been embraced by queer audiences. Gaga, a defining pop figure of queer expression for over a decade, joining forces with Doechii, whose openness about her sexuality and identity continues to resonate with a new generation of music lovers. Together, they create something that feels purposeful, a track that not only suits the film’s high-fashion setting but speaks directly to the audience that has long claimed the original film as a camp classic.

Beyond the music, the trailer hints at a more layered narrative to The Devil Wears Prada 2. Andy Sachs (played by Anne Hathaway) returns, now stepping into a senior editorial role at Runway magazine amid industry turmoil and public scrutiny. The sequel appears to explore the shifting media landscape, grappling with print media and the luxury world.

Familiar faces return alongside fresh additions, promising a mix of legacy and new energy. Much to the delight of fans, Emily Blunt returns as Emily Charlton and Stanley Tucci as Nigel Kipling. In addition, a fresh entourage has joined the runway of characters: names such as Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, and more have been confirmed. 

Yet, even with the intrigue surrounding the plot, it’s ‘Runway’ that leaves the strongest impression. Whether Lady Gaga and Doechii have created a chart-topping hit or the song remains intrinsically tied to the film, one thing is clear: this collaboration is already iconic.
