Vanessa Williams’ Desperate Housewives co-star to play Miranda Priestly

  • Teri Hatcher will star as Miranda Priestly in the West End production of The Devil Wears Prada : The Musical.
  • The 61-year-old actor succeeds her former Desperate Housewives co-star Vanessa Williams, beginning her run on 20 October through to 6 February 2027.
  • Hatcher said: "I’ve been fortunate enough to play some pretty formidable women throughout my career, but very few can compare to THE Miranda Priestly.”
  • The musical adaptation is inspired by Lauren Weisberger’s 2003 novel and the 2006 film originally starring Meryl Streep as the formidable fashion editor.
  • Since opening in the West End in December 2024, the production has become the Dominion Theatre's fastest-selling show, exceeding 1.3 million ticket sales.
