The Devil Wears Prada's Biggest Villain Won't Be Back for the Movie's Sequel
Entertainment Weekly confirmed that Adrian Grenier will not star in The Devil Wears Prada 2. The actor played Nate Cooper, the college boyfriend of Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway), who is pursuing a career as a chef in New York City when she lands her job as an assistant to Runway magazine editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep).

The character has become increasingly divisive in the years since the 2006 film was released as new generations of fans have come to label him and his group of pals as the ultimate villains in Andy's story due to their lack of support for her career.
In the film, the Entourage actor's character repeatedly criticizes Andy's journalistic aspirations as she struggles to juggle her new job as a magazine assistant and her relationship. He also briefly takes an interest once Andy gets a drastic makeover, only to turn against her once again after her job gets in the way of his time with her… but we digress.
Andy and Nate wind up breaking up after she misses his birthday due to work obligations. By the end of the film, they appear to be on good terms as he moves to Boston after accepting a job as a sous-chef, by which time Andy has quit her job at Runway.
While Streep's demanding character might be the obvious villain, fans of the film have turned on Nate over the years, and even Grenier agrees. In 2021, the now-48-year-old actor spoke to Entertainment Weekly about the changing tides towards Nate.
'All those memes that came out were shocking to me,' Grenier said. 'It hadn't occurred to me until I started to really think about it, and perhaps it was because I was as immature as Nate was at the time, and in many ways he's very selfish and self-involved, it was all about him, he wasn't extending himself to support Andy in her career.'
'At the end of the day, it's just a birthday, right? It's not the end of the world,' he said of the couple's breakup catalyst. 'I might've been as immature as him at the time, so I personally couldn't see his shortcomings. But after time to reflect and much deliberation, I've come to realize the truth in that perspective.'
While Nate won't have a place in The Devil Wears Prada 2, presumably due to his thriving Boston culinary career, Hathaway, Streep, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci are expected to return. Original director David Frankel and writer Aline Brosh McKenna are also on board.
Plot details for The Devil Wears Prada 2 have been kept under wraps, but it is slated for a May 2026 release.Best of SheKnows

John Cena finally reveals when his last WWE match will take place
The post John Cena finally reveals when his last WWE match will take place appeared first on ClutchPoints. We're over halfway through John Cena's farewell tour, and the reigning WWE Champion revealed when his last match will take place. Advertisement He spoke to Page Six on the red carpet for his new movie Heads of State, which he stars in alongside Idris Elba, about his final match in WWE. While he would not reveal who it would be against, he promised something 'compelling.' 'Well, I don't want to downplay the action in WWE,' said Cena. 'There's always a bunch of action over there. And yes, I'm 48, my last match will be in mid-December. 'We're still trying to figure out a place to do it. I said [I would work] 36 dates in January — we're halfway through. Gosh, it's been a lot of compelling TV, and I don't want to spoil it for anybody, but I think we're just getting started,' he continued. When will John Cena wrestle his last WWE match? Cena said his last match will take place in December 2025. It is unclear at what event — perhaps the December 2025 edition of Saturday Night's Main Event — it will take place, but he will close out the year with his final match. Advertisement That means Cena has a little under half of his dates left to fulfill. At the Royal Rumble, he said he would work about 36 shows in 2025. However, that did not mean he would compete in 36 matches, so don't expect him to wrestle 15 more times before the end of the year. Cena announced his farewell tour at Money in the Bank in July 2024. He said that 2025 would be his final year of in-ring competition. So, fans around the world have gotten a chance to see him one last time. He started the year by competing in the Royal Rumble and Elimination Chamber matches, winning the latter. Cena then won his record-setting 17th world championship against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41. He won with the help of Travis Scott, who got involved. Since then, Cena has held onto the title. He has successfully defended it against two of his biggest rivals, Randy Orton and CM Punk. Cena also had a feud with R-Truth, now Ron Killings, in between the others.

Wordle hints today for #1,485: Clues and answer for Sunday, July 13
Hey, there! We hope you're having an excellent weekend. You might be taking a moment to complete today's Wordle and maintain your streak. If you're looking for a helping hand with that, you've come to the right place. Here's our daily Wordle guide with some hints and the answer for Sunday's puzzle (#1,485). It may be that you're a Wordle newcomer and you're not completely sure how to play the game. We're here to help with that too. Wordle is a deceptively simple daily word game that first emerged in 2021. There is one five-letter word to deduce every day by process of elimination. The daily word is the same for everyone. Wordle blew up in popularity in late 2021 after creator Josh Wardle made it easy for players to share an emoji-based grid with their friends and followers that detailed how they fared each day. The game's success spurred dozens of clones across a swathe of categories and formats. The New York Times purchased Wordle in early 2022 for an undisclosed sum. The publication said that players collectively played Wordle 5.3 billion times in 2024. So, it's little surprise that Wordle is one of the best online games and puzzles you can play daily. To start playing Wordle, you simply need to enter one five-letter word. The game will tell you how close you are to that day's secret word by highlighting letters that are in the correct position in green. Letters that appear in the word but aren't in the right spot will be highlighted in yellow. If you guess any letters that are not in the secret word, the game will gray those out on the virtual keyboard. However, you can still use those letters in subsequent guesses. You'll only have six guesses to find each day's word, though you still can use grayed-out letters to help narrow things down. It's also worth remembering that letters can appear in the secret word more than once. Wordle is free to play on the NYT's website and apps, as well as on Meta Quest headsets and Discord. The game refreshes at midnight local time. If you log into a New York Times account, you can track your stats, including the all-important win streak. If you have a NYT subscription that includes full access to the publication's games, you don't have to stop after a single round of Wordle. You'll have access to an archive of more than 1,400 previous Wordle games. So if you're a relative newcomer, you'll be able to go back and catch up on previous editions. In addition, paid NYT Games members have access to a tool called the Wordle Bot. This can tell you how well you performed at each day's game. Before today's Wordle hints, here are the answers to recent puzzles that you may have missed: Yesterday's Wordle answer for Saturday, July 12 — EXILE Friday, July 11 — BRAND Thursday, July 10 — JUMPY Wednesday, July 9 — NOVEL Tuesday, July 8 — DREAD Every day, we'll try to make Wordle a little easier for you. First, we'll offer a hint that describes the meaning of the word or how it might be used in a phrase or sentence. We'll also tell you if there are any double (or even triple) letters in the word. In case you still haven't quite figured it out by that point, we'll then provide the first letter of the word. Those who are still stumped after that can continue on to find out the answer for today's Wordle. This should go without saying, but make sure to scroll slowly. Spoilers are ahead. Here is a hint for today's Wordle answer: A humanoid ornament you might find in a garden. There are no repeated letters in today's Wordle answer. The first letter of today's Wordle answer is G. This is your final warning before we reveal today's Wordle answer. No take-backs. Don't blame us if you happen to scroll too far and accidentally spoil the game for yourself. What is today's Wordle? Today's Wordle answer is... GNOME Not to worry if you didn't figure out today's Wordle word. If you made it this far down the page, hopefully you at least kept your streak going. And, hey: there's always another game tomorrow.
