US Edition‘Devil Wears Prada 2’: Adrian Grenier Breaks Silence on Sequel Snub
Adrian Grenier says fan backlash over his character's unsupportive role in the original film likely led to his exclusion from The Devil Wears Prada 2.
- After being left out of the sequel, Adrian Grenier told Page Six and Us Weekly on March 13 he believes fan backlash to Nate Cooper explains his omission.
- Fans on social media have long argued that Nate is the film's 'true villain,' and Grenier said in 2021 that online memes and criticism surprised him, making him see Nate as immature and selfish.
- He said he would have accepted a return and floated a Nate spinoff while focusing at age 49 on his short film Self Custody and life as a Texas farmer.
- Several original cast members are returning, including Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci, while Australian actor Patrick Brammall joins as Andy's new leading man during filming in New York City.
- Casting questions continue to fuel debate as production occupies New York City, with Grenier's recent comments intensifying speculation about the villain and Nate's legacy in The Devil Wears Prada 2.
