Simon Baker joins Emily Blunt, Anne Hathway and Meryl Streep in the film ‘The Devil Wears Prada’. You may remember Simon from horror movies like ‘Land of the Dead’ and ‘Ring Two’, but ‘Devil Wears Prada’ is about a different kind of terror.

Based on the novel by Lauren Wiseberger, the film is the story of a small town girl who gets a big job as an assistant to a fashion magazine editor. According to Variety, Baker will play a writer at the magazine who tries to help her survive the rigors of city living while she’s tortured by her nightmare boss, Meryl Streep. Streep’s character is oddly enough, supposed to be based on a real person: Vogue magazine editor Anne Wintour.

Anne Hathaway is slated to play Streep’s abused employee, while Emily Blunt takes on the role of a high-ranking assistant. Joining along with Simon Baker is Adrian Grenier as a love interest. ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ is scheduled to start shooting in New York in the fall, which means you can expect it in theaters some time in 2006.
