Jude Law says Mr. Napkin Head isn't likely to make a comeback on the upcoming limited series adaptation of *The Holiday* from Apple TV+.

Law, who played widower Graham in the original 2006 film written and directed by Nancy Meyers, revealed on Wednesday's *Today* show that he hadn't even known about the adaptation before the director contacted him to ask if he'd heard about it.

"You know, I heard about it. I know nothing about it. Nothing, other than I don't think I'm in it. I don't know," he said. "I think Nancy wrote to me and said, 'Have you heard about this?' Literally."

Law, 52, joked that he would be playing "the grandfather" on the limited series, before reiterating that he "really" has no role — at least not yet.

When asked by *Today *cohost Craig Melvin whether he'd want to revisit the beloved Christmas classic, Law shared the one thing it would take to get him on the series: "Nancy Meyers would have to be involved. She was the magic that brought all that together."

Considering how Meyers reacted to the announcement that Apple TV+ is adapting her movie into a limited series on social media, Mr. Napkin Head lovers might want to give up that hope before it starts.**

"News to me," Meyers wrote in an Instagram Story atop a screenshot of a *Hollywood Reporter* post about the TV show. "Imagine my surprise when I opened Instagram and this was the first post I saw. 🤔"

Meyers' *The Holiday* starred Cameron Diaz as a workaholic movie trailer editor in Los Angeles and Kate Winslet as a London journalist pining after her ex-slash-coworker. The two women spontaneously decide to do a house swap and each fall in love with a local across the pond. Diaz is paired up with Law, who played Winslet's character's brother, while Winslet couples with Jack Black, a charismatic musician.

The original *Holiday* grossed more than $200 million at the global box office, making it Meyers' fourth-biggest hit as a director (behind *What Women Want*, *Something's Gotta Give*, and *It's Complicated*).

Even before the news broke in August, Meyers has been clear that she has no plans to revisit the movie. In 2022, the filmmaker shot down rumors that Diaz and Winslet had boarded a sequel in an Instagram post.

"So many DM's about this. Sorry but it's not true," Meyers wrote in a caption of a Daily Mail screenshot claiming that the original cast would return for a sequel.
