Caleb Hearon is peeling back the curtain on his experience sharing a set with some of Hollywood’s biggest stars while shooting The Devil Wears Prada 2.

The So True podcast host appears in the highly anticipated sequel as Charlie, the current “second assistant” to Miranda Priestly, the iconic editor-in-chief played by Meryl Streep. The original 2006 movie begins when Anne Hathaway’s character, Andy Sachs, is hired into the same role of second assistant to the head of the fictional Runway magazine.

At the film’s N.Y.C. premiere on Monday, April 20, the comedian raves about working with his on-screen predecessor to Taylen Biggs, 12, who hosted PEOPLE’s coverage of the event.

“It was fabulous. She’s so nice,” Hearon, 31, says of Hathaway, 43, who was recently revealed to be PEOPLE’s 2026 World’s Most Beautiful cover star.

Hearon notes that she didn’t distill any specific advice during their time on set. “We didn’t really talk about working that way between scenes. We were just in our scenes together having fun and then we just talked about life and hung out,” he continues. “It was lovely.”

The social media star wasn’t the only cast member to spill behind-the-scenes details while walking the red carpet on Monday night. During a recent appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Hathaway joked that Stanley Tucci was the “diva” on the sequel’s set because “he’s so fussy about his clothes,” and Tucci doesn’t shy away from the title.

At the premiere, Tucci — who reprises his role as fashion authority Nigel Kipling in The Devil Wears Prada 2 — confirms he is “no question” the cast diva. “I’m awful,” Tucci, 65, jokes to Biggs. “Just terrible.”

Biggs then reassures Tucci it’s a “good thing” to be a diva, because it “means being confident,” and Tucci agrees, “Yeah, I think you’re right.”

The Devil Wears Prada 2 is in theaters May 1.
