Ugly Betty star Vanessa Williams has been cast as the iconic Miranda Priestly in Elton John’s musical adaptation of The Devil Wears Prada.

The actress will mark her return to the West End as the formidable editor-in-chief, who was memorably brought to life by Meryl Streep in the 2006 film adaptation of Lauren Weisberger’s best-selling 2003 novel.

Williams will commence the role at the Theatre Royal in Plymouth from 6 July to 17 August for an exclusive preview period. The show will then open in London’s Dominion Theatre from 24 October.

Williams said that “bringing Miranda Priestly to life in the West End is an absolute dream come true.” She made her West End debut in the satirical musical comedy City of Angels in the dual roles of Clara and Alaura.
