The first movie, which is quickly becoming a classic, centers on Andy (Anne Hathaway), a recent college graduate who takes a humble job at Runway magazine – a clear stand-in for Vogue – hoping it will launch her journalism career. Unfortunately, she faces obstacles from three difficult colleagues: fellow assistant Emily (Emily Blunt), influential stylist Nigel (Stanley Tucci), and the intimidating Miranda (Meryl Streep), who seems like a force of nature. Miranda’s character is inspired by Anna Wintour, the former editor-in-chief of Vogue, who initially disliked the portrayal but later embraced it – understandably, considering Meryl Streep is playing her.
