Sarah Jessica Parker Speaks Candidly About ‘Painful’ Kim Cattrall Fallout: ‘There Is Not A “Fight” Going On’

Steamy! Cynthia Nixon‘s wife, Christine Marinoni, knew the Sex and the City alum’s erotic scenes in And Just Like That would be authentic.

Kim Cattrall is headed to Netflix for a brand new series.

Kim Cattrall may not have wanted anything to do with the And Just Like That…, but clearly revivals of seminal cable shows aren’t off the table entirely.

Ramin Setoodeh Executive EditorTo many fans of “Sex and the City,” Kim Cattrall was the definition of glamorous. So perhaps it’s only fitting that her next TV project will be “Glamorous,” a Netflix series in which Cattrall will be starring as a makeup mogul.“Glamorous,” which had originally been ordered as a pilot at The CW in 2019, tells the story of Marco Mejia (played by actor, singer and YouTuber Miss Benny), a gender non-conforming queer person who goes to work for Cattrall’s cosmetics queen Madolyn Addison.

The And Just Like That creator has said that Samantha Jones will return for the second series. Sex and the City fans thoroughly missed the presence of Kim Cattrall playing the iconic character in the reboot, which was met with mixed reviews. While Samantha wasn't there as the ladies reunited on screen, her presence was felt as Sarah Jessica Parker’s character, Carrie Bradshaw, frequently texted her pal.

Sex and the City just won’t let go of Samantha Jones!

Sex And The City spin-off And Just Like That has teased a return for Kim Cattrall’s character, Samantha Jones, in the show’s forthcoming second season.Jones, a publicist and close friend of Parker’s Carrie Bradshaw, was played by Cattrall in the original series which ran from 1998 to 2004, as well as reprising the character for the two spin-off films.Although the actress didn’t return for the 2021 sequel series And Just Like That, Samantha is referred to in several scenes and in text message conversations – a move Cattrall described as “odd”.In the opening scene, Cattrall’s absence is explained in an offscreen subplot whereby Samantha no longer speaks to her friends Carrie (Parker), Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) and Charlotte (Kristen Davis) after moving to London.Now, speaking to Variety in an interview published Tuesday (June 7), showrunner Michael Patrick King said “yes” when asked if Samantha will “still be texting” in season 2 – although he did not specify whether that meant an appearance from Cattrall herself.“It’s all so new right now,” he explained. “One of my big rules is don’t tell things until they’re real.

! Showrunner Michael Patrick King told that the character's phone communication from season one will reappear in the second season of his reboot. King and his writers relied on texting to keep Kim Cattrall's character after she did not return to the show. The strategy was hailed as an innovative approach to a difficult situation, and though the writers only recently began work on the second season, Samantha’s texts were one of the few details King would confirm unequivocally. Cattrall walked the red carpet at Variety's 2022 Power of Women event last month, where she spoke with ET and shared a message for fans who were disappointed that she wouldn't be returning. «I think the character of Samantha was awakened 25 years ago and she will live forever,» Cattrall reflected.
