Anne Hathaway, soon to be seen opposite Steve Carell as Agent 99 in the upcoming Get Smart remake, has been spotted apartment-hunting downtown with her boyfriend, real-estate developer Raffaello Follieri. The actress, star of The Devil Wears Prada and Becoming Jane, and Follieri, who was sued last spring by billionaire Ron Burkle for allegedly misappropriating funds in a development deal, are supposedly in the market for a luxe loft. A source says they recently checked out a four-bedroom on Broadway between Broome and Spring Streets that’s available to rent for $30,000-plus per month. Past press reports have made much of Follieri’s appearances at events with a bodyguard, whereas the popular Hathaway travels sans entourage; apparently, nothing has changed, as he brought security for their tour of the apartment and she showed up on her own. Calls to their representatives for comment went unreturned.
