Last night’s Screen Actors Guild Awards 2024 not only celebrated outstanding performances from the past year but also treated viewers to a heartwarming reunion that no one saw coming. Hollywood icons Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt took the stage together to present the award for Best Actor in a Comedy Series. This marked a delightful reunion after 18 years since their collaboration on the iconic 2006 film, The Devil Wears Prada.
In a viral video circulating on the internet, the trio shared light-hearted banter, evoking fond memories of their time working together. Meryl Streep playfully pondered the age-old question of where the character ends and the actor begins. Emily Blunt humorously noted the resemblance between Meryl and her character Miranda Priestly, suggesting a twin-like connection. Anne Hathaway chimed in, adding a clever reference to one of Miranda’s memorable lines from the movie, saying, “No, no, that wasn’t a question.”
