| The Devil wears Prada - Best moments + Music The Devil Wears Prada is an Academy Award-nominated 2006 comedy-drama film, a loose screen adaptation of Lauren Weisberger's 2003 novel of the same name. It stars Anne Hathaway as Andrea "Andy" Sachs, a recent college graduate who comes to New York City and gets a job as a co-assistant to powerful and demanding fashion magazine editor Miranda Priestly, played by Meryl Streep. Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci co-star, with Adrian Grenier, Simon Baker and Tracie Thoms playing key supporting roles. Wendy Finerman produced and David Frankel directed; the film was distributed by 20th Century Fox. Director David Frankel and producer Wendy Finerman had originally read The Devil Wears Prada as a book proposal written by Weisberger.[15] It was sent out to an agent who sold it in under one minute. A hundred pages long, it dealt with what became the film's set-up, the story of Andrea's job search and how she ended up working for a fashion magazine editor.[15] It would be Frankel's second theatrical feature. For him, cinematographer Florian Ballhaus and costume designer Patricia Field, it was a reunion of sorts as they had all worked on Sex and the City, where they had gained valuable experience depicting women at work and play in a glamorous and exciting New York. * Anne Hathaway as Andrea "Andy" Sachs: A recent college graduate and aspiring journalist who, despite no real knowledge of fashion, is hired as the junior personal assistant to the powerful and demanding editor of Runway magazine. * Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly: The editor of Runway.
