Devil Wears Prada Sequel: Why Nate Was Left Out
26 Apr
Summary
- Nate's character was not included in the sequel film.
- Director cited production schedule for Nate's absence.
- Actor Adrian Grenier expressed disappointment over his exclusion.
The sequel to The Devil Wears Prada will not feature the character Nate, who was Andy's boyfriend in the original 2006 film. Director David Frankel confirmed that while he considered a brief cameo for actor Adrian Grenier, it ultimately proved infeasible due to the film's demanding production timeline. The movie completed filming shortly before its scheduled release, precluding any late additions.
Grenier had previously voiced his disappointment about not being asked to return for the sequel. He speculated that negative public reactions to his character, Nate, might have influenced the decision. Recently, Grenier humorously addressed his absence in a Starbucks advertisement, acknowledging Nate's imperfections and suggesting the character remain a memory of 2006.
