NEW YORK – Patrick Brammall's first day on set for "The Devil Wears Prada 2" is one he probably won't forget. On Aug. 5, 2025 the actor was filming scenes with Anne Hathaway in Brooklyn, New York. Paparazzi snapped photos of the duo during and between takes.
"That was a bit mental," Brammall, 50, recalled to USA TODAY at the movie's world premiere on Monday night. The Australian-born actor estimates that there were about 300 onlookers. "And then I got home and friends started sending me photos and videos of that moment. And I was like, 'Well, this is quite surreal. I think I might be in an iconic movie.'"
For "Prada 2," (in theaters May 1) Hathaway reprises her role of Andy Sachs, who has a new job: features editor at Runway Magazine. And Andy also has a new love interest: Peter, played by Brammall.
Moviegoers might recognize Brammall from the Australian romantic dramedy series "Colin From Accounts," which he created with his wife Harriet Dyer; they also cowrite and costar in it. "Colin" streams on Paramount+. He's also set to star in "The Dispatcher," an upcoming limited series on Apple TV+.
Have Brammall's friends inquired about his latest gig, specifically asking him what it was like to play Hathaway's object of affection?
