Instead of being anxious, she is calm, strong and even a bit mysterious.

However, Ashley also talked about working with the cast, including Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci.

She said that the atmosphere on set was fun and relaxed, with many of jokes and music between scenes.

The sequel brings back the original stars as the fashion world continues inside the story, with Miranda once again leading the magazine Runway.

The original film became a huge success in 2006 and many fans are now excited to see how the story continues with new characters added to the mix.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 is expected to be one of the most talked about releases now.
