Elton John Is Writing Devil Wears Prada Musical

The Hollywood Reporter announces that Elton John and Paul Rudnick have signed on to adapt The Devil Wears Prada into a Broadway Musical! Here's what everyone has to say about the project:

Producers Bob Cohen and Kevin McCollum: "To bring The Devil Wears Prada to the stage, we knew we needed to find artists as inimitable as the characters in the story. We needed artists whose work has run the gamut, from music and publishing to drama and fashion. We could think of only two names: Elton John and Paul Rudnick. … That's all!"

Elton John:  "Reimagining The Devil Wears Prada for the musical theater is super exciting. I'm a huge fan of both the book and the feature film and a huge aficionado of the fashion world. I can't wait to sink my musical teeth into this hunk of popular culture."

Elton John previously composed musicals The Lion King, Billy Elliot, and Aida.
