dailyloe.com – Stanley Tucci has humorously accepted a joke from his co-star Anne Hathaway calling him a diva. Hathaway made the comment during a recent appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. She said Tucci was the biggest diva on the set of The Devil Wears Prada 2. Hathaway claimed this was because he is fussy about his clothes.
Tucci responded to the joke at the film’s premiere in New York City. The premiere event took place on Monday, April 20. He spoke with Taylen Biggs, who hosted PEOPLE’s coverage of the event. Tucci agreed with Hathaway’s assessment without hesitation.
He told Biggs he is ‘no question’ the set’s diva. The 65-year-old actor jokingly called himself ‘awful’ and ‘just terrible.’ Biggs, who is 12 years old, reassured Tucci that being a diva is a good thing. She said it means being confident, and Tucci agreed she was right.
The pair are reuniting with Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt for the sequel. The film is highly anticipated by fans. According to Variety, the sequel follows Miranda Priestly, played by Streep. She navigates her career amid the decline of traditional magazine publishing.
Priestly also faces off against Blunt’s character in the new film. Blunt’s character is now a high-powered executive for a luxury group. This group holds advertising dollars that Priestly desperately needs. The plot was detailed in a report from the entertainment outlet.
Tucci also commented on Hathaway’s PEOPLE World’s Most Beautiful cover. He sweetly supported his costar while cheekily downplaying his reaction. Tucci said, ‘It’s not so bad. She’s pretty good looking.’ His remarks came on the same day as the film’s premiere.
