Actor Emily Blunt unveiled her new look on the set of the upcoming sequel to the 2006 comedy-drama film The Devil Wears Prada.

She sported a bleach-blonde bob with a shadow root on the New York City set of the The Devil Wears Prada 2, reported People.

The new hair is a sharp departure for her character, Emily Charlton, who famously sported her signature deep red locks in the original movie.

Charlton is the former assistant to the cold and particular Runway magazine editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) in The Devil Wears Prada.

The 2006 comedy-drama was directed by David Frankel and produced by Wendy Finerman. The screenplay, written by Aline Brosh McKenna, is based on the 2003 novel by Lauren Weisberger. The film stars Streep, Anne Hathaway, Stanley Tucci and Blunt.

It follows Andy Sachs (Hathaway), an aspiring journalist who gets a job at a fashion magazine but finds herself at the mercy of her demanding editor, Priestly (Streep).

Hathaway reprises her role from the original.

Hathway, Streep, Blunt and Tucci will reprise their roles for the sequel. Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, Pauline Chalamet, Simone Ashley, Kenneth Branagh, comedian Caleb Hearon, and Broadway stars Helen J. Shen and Conrad Ricamora are all joining the cast, reported People.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 is expected to hit theatres on May 1, 2026. (ANI)
