<New York, the city where you can meet celebrities>

Recently, there has been a lot of buzz among New Yorkers on social media.

I came across the filming location of "The Devil Wears Prada 2"!

This is the post.

It has been popular for about 20 years since its release in 2006.

The film "The Devil Wears Prada" is set in New York and stars Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep.

The sequel, "The Devil Wears Prada 2," will finally be released in the US in May of next year.

There are film crews all over New York right now.

Filming is currently underway, watched and praised by a large audience.


Just the other day, I came across a photo shoot on New York's 5th Avenue, where brands from around the world gather.

The crowd, watching quietly with their smartphones in hand, also shouted "Cut!"
With this signal, the crowd erupted in cheers.

I saw the celebrities who were back to their normal selves, smiling, waving, and doing things.

People are increasingly looking forward to the film's release next year, and it is becoming a hot topic of conversation.


This time, it seems to have appeared in Brooklyn as well.

The places and shops used in the film are likely to become tourist attractions again.


Film production is a major source of revenue for New York City.

There are many different types of filming happening in various locations, both big and small.
You'll encounter this quite often when you come to New York.

If you see a bunch of big white trucks parked there, that's the landmark⭐︎


Why not plan a trip to New York to follow the filming?

You can also enjoy visiting the filming locations of popular movies.

*The release of "The Devil Wears Prada 2" in Japan has not yet been officially announced.

About six months after its release in the US,
It is said that it will be around autumn 2026.

<New York subway to go $3 starting January 4, 2026>

The 24-hour nonstop service of New Yorkers,
Subway (subway).

From January 4th (Sunday) of the new year
It came to $3.

This is the third price increase in the last 10 years.

In 2015, it was raised from $2.50 to $2.75.
Eight years from now, in 2023, it will reach $2.90.
And now it's down to $3 in just three years.

But it's a flat rate, so no matter how far you go or how long you ride, it's only $3!

Together,
32 years since its introduction in 1993
The yellow MetroCard, which served as a symbol of New York, was discontinued at the end of last year.


The contactless Tap & Go style has already been in place since 2019
It has been unified into the "OMNY system," which looks like an iPad.


(*MetroCards that are still valid can still be used until an announcement is made that they will no longer be valid, but since the vending machines no longer exist, you cannot load money onto them.)


The yellow MetroCard was replaced by

The simple black and white "OMNY Card" (right in the photo below)


It can be purchased from vending machines,

You don't have to buy that card

It's convenient because you can use it by simply holding up your credit card or smartphone, which has a WiFi-like mark and allows contactless payments.

No pre-registration or anything is required.
Just come to New York and hold it up.


So, in NY
Please be sure to bring your credit card with you, or your smartphone, which has a Wi-Fi-like mark on it.
