The Devil Wears Prada 2 has been praised for its relevance in today's time, addressing issues such as layoffs, journalistic ethics, and the death of print.
The film's screenwriter, Aline Brosh McKenna, calls it just a coincidence that the plot mirrors Jeff Bezos' rumoured plan to buy Conde Nast, the parent company of Vogue.
The sequel sees Anne Hathaway's Andy Sachs return to Runway, the fictitious fashion mag modelled after Vogue, as the magazine's leadership undergoes a sea of change.
The fictional fashion magazine Runway faces a potential sale to a tech billionaire, played by Justin Theroux, which represents a growing tension between creativity and profit.
Many viewers felt that Theroux's Benji Barnes was similar to Amazon's Jeff Bezos, with both billionaires - real and fictional - dating popular journalists and getting a makeover after a huge divorce.
However, Brosh McKenna dismissed any direct inspiration, saying they already had a script when the rumours started happening.
The film has received critical acclaim and is on its way to becoming a huge commercial success, opening to $233 million worldwide.
