Overview
- Grenier appears in a new Starbucks commercial released Tuesday that winks at headlines about him not being asked to join the sequel and ends with him saying, “If they call, I’m free.”
- The spot promotes Starbucks’ new Energy Refreshers and doubles as a studio tie-in for The Devil Wears Prada 2.
- The sequel restores the core cast — Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci — with original director David Frankel returning, and Entertainment Weekly reports Patrick Brammall now plays Andy’s partner.
- Grenier has said he was disappointed by the decision but has acknowledged fan criticism that Nate was unsupportive, a view that has grown through years of memes and online debate.
- The Devil Wears Prada 2 opens in theaters May 1, following a marketing play that sometimes features original actors in ads even when they do not appear in the new film.
