Movie lovers, rejoice! The sequel to the beloved fashion comedy has just smashed its way past the $500 million landmark worldwide and is closing in on a major franchise record. With three weekends now under its belt, The Devil Wears Prada 2 is proving that style and wit can still pack a punch at the global box office.

Domestic Box Office Performance

In its third three-day weekend, the Anne Hathaway–Meryl Streep starrer secured a healthy $17.8 million in North America. While this represents a 57.1% drop from the Mother’s Day holiday surge, it still brings the domestic tally to an impressive $175.7 million. Industry trackers expect Prada 2 to cruise past the $200 million milestone at home very soon.

International Triumphs

Away from U.S. shores, the sequel raked in $50.2 million over the same weekend, down 35% from its previous frame. That pushes its overseas sum to $369.9 million across 53 territories, driving the global haul to a whopping $545.6 million. At this pace, the film is eyeing the coveted $600 million club by mid-summer.

Inches From Mission: Impossible II

Here’s the real kicker: The Devil Wears Prada 2 sits less than $2 million short of overtaking Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible II, which has a lifetime gross of $546.4 million. Prada 2 has already eclipsed the original Mission: Impossible and its third installment, making this next milestone even sweeter for Hollywood’s fashionistas.

Looking Ahead

With positive word-of-mouth and holiday weekends on the horizon, Prada 2 has room to grow. Box office scouts predict a final tally between $680 million and $710 million globally—enough to challenge the top two highest-grossing Mission: Impossible entries. Stay tuned as this stylish showdown unfolds!
