Stanley Tucci has reacted after Anne Hathaway jokingly called him the “biggest diva” on the set of The Devil Wears Prada 2.
The comment originally came during a recent interview, where Hathaway playfully singled out her co-star when asked about behind-the-scenes moments on the highly anticipated sequel.
She joked that Tucci earned the title because he is “fussy about his clothes,” a remark that quickly caught fans’ attention.
Now, Tucci has responded, and instead of denying it, he leaned right into the joke.
Speaking at the film’s New York premiere, he laughed and said: “I’m awful. Just terrible.”
The actor appeared to fully embrace the label, even suggesting that being a “diva” can sometimes come from confidence and attention to detail, especially in a fashion-focused film.
The exchange highlights the long-standing chemistry between the cast, who are reuniting nearly two decades after the original 2006 hit.
Alongside Tucci and Hathaway, the sequel also brings back Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt, with the story continuing in the high-pressure world of fashion media.
The upcoming film is expected to follow Miranda Priestly navigating a changing industry, while familiar characters return in new roles and power dynamics.
Despite the “diva” joke, Hathaway has spoken highly of Tucci, describing him as hilarious and a joy to work with, reinforcing that the comment was all in good fun.
Fans have been loving the playful back-and-forth, with many saying it only adds to the excitement ahead of the film’s release.
With the sequel set to hit theaters soon, moments like this are giving audiences a glimpse into the fun and camaraderie behind the scenes.
