Anna Hathaway just took a huge tumble down some outdoor stairs during the filming of The Devil Wears Prada 2 while rocking the cutest outfit ever.

Much to the delight of fans everywhere the second installment of the 2006 comedy film is officially rolling, with Anne Hathaway back at Andy Sachs, the clumsy intern to a terrifying magazine CEO.

The actress, 42, was spotted filming the fashion flick in New York when she fell over while wearing now-broken chunky black heels in what looked like a painful moment.

It’s unclear if the fall was part of filming efforts, or a genuine trip. Either way, after slipping and falling backwards on the stairs, Anne recovered spectacularly while many people rushed to help her.

‘I’m fine!’ she said, while putting her hands in the air and those watching cheered, having let out a gasp of horror seconds before.

The Princess Diaries star appeared to take the set back well, as she smiled away while interacting with the crew after the blip.

At least Anne looked fabulous in the moment of weakness though, as she sported a black pleated skirt, chequered tight-fitting top, and yellow sunglasses with a black rim.

Clearly Andy hasn’t lost her eye for fashion since she found it in the first film and earned a smile from her terrifying boss, but upended her life in the process.

The 2006 classic, based on Lauren Weisberger’s best-selling novel, followed Andy’s rollercoaster journey into establishing herself as a fashion journalist at Runway Magazine under the stern gaze of boss Miranda Priestly, played by Meryl Streep.

Disney confirmed in July that the sequel was in development, with Charlie’s Angels star Lucy Liu included in the stacked reboot cast along with BJ Novak, Justin Theroux, Kenneth Branagh, and Bridgerton’s Simone Ashley.

Streep’s character was inspired by Vogue’s former editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, as DWP writer Weisberger worked as her personal assistant back in the day.

Alongside Meryl and Anne, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci are also reprising their roles for DWP2, with much of the creative team returning to set 20 years on, and David Frankel directing once more.

Director David previously squashed a future potential sequel while talking to Metro, calling it a ‘terrible idea’.

In 2022, he said: ‘There was a little bit of talk a couple of times – once after the movie was such a big hit 15 years ago.

‘We all got on a conference call to discuss it and it was easily decided that that was a terrible idea.

‘We had told this story, these characters were very complete in the way that they had appeared in this film and we had no imagination for where the story would go.’

The film is said to follow Miranda’s struggle against competitor and former personal assistant Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt) as they battle for advertising revenue during the decline of print media.
