In an ironic twist of fortunes, Streep’s fearsome Wintour-inspired Miranda faces the sunset of her career at the helm Runway magazine, which has since plunged considerably from grace owing to the decline of print media. At this point, it remains dependent on advertising dollars from a luxury conglomerate where her former assistant, Emily, now works as a high-powered executive. No word on Andrea’s prospects at this point in time, but we don’t doubt that she will play a central role in the plot all the same.
在命运的讽刺性转折中，斯特里普饰演的受温图尔启发的令人生畏的米兰达面临着她掌舵《天桥》杂志的职业生涯的落日，该杂志此后由于印刷媒体的衰落而大幅下滑。目前，它仍然依赖于一家奢侈品集团的广告收入，她的前助理艾米丽现在是该集团的高级管理人员。目前还没有关于安德里亚的前景的消息，但我们毫不怀疑她将在情节中发挥核心作用。
18.fearsome adj.making people feel very frightened很可怕的；十分吓人的
19.at the helm 掌舵；指船长或舵手掌控船舵 掌管；指某人在组织或公司中担任领导职务

As far as finer details are concerned, the studio has kept mum on whether any members of the original cast will return. This is especially because Anne Hathaway had previously expressed skepticism about whether a sequel wouldever come to light, during an interview with E! back in March. “I don’t think a continuation of that story is probably ever gonna happen,” she said.
就更详细的细节而言，工作室对原班演员是否会回归保持沉默。这尤其是因为安妮·海瑟薇此前在接受《E!》采访时曾对续集是否会曝光表示怀疑。回到三月份。“我认为这个故事可能不会再发生，”她说。
20.continuation/kənˌtɪnjuˈeɪʃ(ə)n/ n.1)[U sing.]an act or the state of continuing 继续；连续；持续

3)[C]something that is joined on to sth else and forms a part of it 附加物；延续物

For now, if you’re looking to satiate your rekindled embers for The Devil Wears Prada, you may want to consider catching the musical adaptation of the movie that is being staged in London’s West End, starring Vanessa Williams in the role of Miranda Priestly.
现在，如果您想满足对《穿普拉达的女王》重燃的余烬，您可能需要考虑观看正在伦敦西区上演的音乐改编电影，由凡妮莎·威廉姆斯主演米兰达·普里斯特利。
