On Tuesday, July 9th, it was reported that Anne Hathaway and Stanley Tucci are also discussing a possible return as Andy Sachs and Nigel. Now, it was finally confirmed that both stars will return for the much-anticipated sequel.
There are some characters who are not really essential to the second part, so we may not hear about them again, such as Nate (Andy’s ex-boyfriend), who was portrayed by Adrian Grenier.
