Gird your loins. 20th Century Studios has unveiled its first glimpse of “The Devil Wears Prada 2.”
Almost twenty years after making their iconic turns as Miranda, Andy, Emily and Nigel—Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci return to the fashionable streets of New York City and the sleek offices of Runway Magazine in the eagerly awaited sequel to the 2006 phenomenon that defined a generation.
The film reunites the original main cast with director David Frankel and writer Aline Brosh McKenna, and introduces an all-new runway of characters including Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, Patrick Brammall, Caleb Hearon, Helen J. Shen, Pauline Chalamet, B.J. Novak and Conrad Ricamora. Tracie Thoms and Tibor Feldman also reprise their roles as “Lily” and “Irv” from the first film.
“The Devil Wears Prada 2” is produced by Wendy Finerman, and executive produced by Michael Bederman, Karen Rosenfelt and McKenna. The film debuts exclusively in theaters May 1, 2026.
Disney and Pixar have debuted the first teaser trailer and an all-new poster for “Toy Story 5,” and this time, it’s Toy meets Tech.
In the teaser, fans are introduced to the new character Lilypad, a high-tech, frog-shaped smart tablet voiced by Greta Lee (“Past Lives,” “The Morning Show,” “TRON: Ares”) that makes Buzz, Woody, Jessie and the rest of the gang’s jobs exponentially harder when they go head to head with the all-new threat to playtime.
Tom Hanks returns as the ever-loyal cowboy Woody, Tim Allen reports for duty as Buzz Lightyear, Joan Cusack saddles up again as the rootin’-tootin’ cowgirl Jessie, and Tony Hale is back as the voice of the handcrafted toy Forky. It was recently announced that Conan O’Brien will also join the voice cast as the toilet training tech toy Smarty Pants.
Director Andrew Stanton and co-director Kenna Harris state, “It’s been a hilarious and poignant journey exploring how our favorite team of legacy toys might respond to today’s world of technology, and we’re thrilled to share this first glimpse with audiences. Having the remarkably talented Greta Lee bring Lilypad to life — balancing a playfully antagonistic tone with humor and heart — has been incredible.”
“Toy Story 5” is directed by Academy Award® winner Andrew Stanton (“WALL•E,” “Finding Nemo,” “Finding Dory”), co-directed by Kenna Harris (“Ciao Alberto”) and produced by Lindsey Collins (“Turning Red,” “WALL•E,” “Finding Dory”). The animated adventure releases in theaters nationwide on June 19, 2026.

“Peter Pan Goes Wrong” in all the right ways. A grand spectacle bridging old school theatrics with high-flying thrills of laughter, suspense, and wholesome fun. La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts is undoubtedly the best theater to bring “Peter Pan Goes Wrong.” Not only for its highly quality Broadway style stage productions, but the theater sharing a long time history for the original “Peter Pan” musical back in 1997 as its first national tour show earning Tony nominations.
Its original lead performer, Cathy Rigby, returning to Never Land albeit in a naturally respectful role as “The Narrator”. Not only that, but the 72 year old also plays a pirate and lost boy, scrambling on and off a moving stage. The nimble living legend also navigates a troublesome wooden chair tapping to her experience as a two-time Olympic gymnast, the first American woman to win a medal in world competition. Cathy Rigby last played Peter Pan in the 2013 “farewell” production after 3,000 performances as the boy who never grew up. For theater fans waiting patiently for Cathy Rigby to be involved in “Peter Pan Goes Wrong” at the La Mirada Theatre is quite the understatement and immensely satisfying.
Having missed my chance to see Cathy Rigby in her farewell tour, her magical curtain call gave me enough chilling goosebumps to more than make up for lost time as a musical theater enthusiast. And to learn some set pieces, props, and costumes from the “Peter Pan” Broadway production making appearances in “Peter Goes Wrong” just makes the experience even richer. Could anyone imagine this precious gem on a national tour?
“Peter Pan Goes Wrong” at La Mirada is a must-see, don’t miss event for the ages. Even if you’ve seen this show before, there’s nothing else like it when La Mirada Theatre is involved. There’s plenty of humor for everyone where any and all mishaps could land face first on the stage in front of a live audience.
Grander, bolder, and craftier than “The Play That Goes Wrong”. Adults would enjoy the nerve wrecking line flubs, backstage drama, and nostalgia for Cathy Rigby’s return to the stage. Children will laugh at the high jinks of toppling set pieces, untimely costume changes, and engage with a familiar story and characters in a new fairy tale light. Cathy Rigby is the magic that makes pixie dust extra special.
Cathy and her husband, Tom McCoy, are the producing team behind the “Broadway Series” at La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts now presenting “Peter Pan Goes Wrong”. Written by Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer, & Henry Shields. Directed by Eric Petersen (La Mirada Theatre’s “The Play That Goes Wrong”).
Performances on select times from October 31 to November 23, 2025. For more information including ticket sales visit www.lamiradatheatre.com or by calling (562) 944-9801 or (714) 994-6310.

Hilton Anaheim held a private event on Thursday October 23, to commemorate the completion of the resort’s multi-phase, multi-million-dollar renovation. All 1,574 rooms and suites were redesigned with modern furnishings, upgraded lightning, and more. We had the opportunity to stay at the Hotel and attend the hosted private event.
“Completing this renovation, the most significant transformation in our history, is a major milestone for our hotel and our entire team,” said Sergio Bocci, general manager, Hilton Anaheim. “For over a year, we navigated construction, while keeping our commitment to serving guests, reimagining every space for the future, and honoring the legacy of what this property means to Anaheim. This transformation has allowed us to celebrate the property’s role in Anaheim over the past 40 years while creating a hotel ready to welcome guests, neighbors, and partners to gather for years to come.”
We were fortunate enough to be able to stay at the hotel and our room was fantastic. The park view room overlooks directly above the new Rooftide Terrace and pool area with Disneyland Resort overtaking the skyline. A comfortable private serene fireworks view away from the hustle and bustle of the crowded noisy walkways below. The decor throughout the property including the hotel rooms take inspiration from the state of California, including hanging artwork of oranges. In fact, management plans to plant an orange tree on property as a symbolic connection to the city’s past with orange grooves.
