The next book-turned-movie-turned-musical headed for Broadway is the Meryl Streep/Anne Hathaway hit, The Devil Wears Prada, and none other than Sir Elton John is going to collaborate on the music for the show.

Of course, John is no stranger to Broadway. His credits include “The Lion King,” “Aida,” “Billy Elliot: The Musical” and “Lestat.”
