Actress Kim Cattrall will reprise the role of Samantha Jones and complete the original cast of “Sex and the City” in the second season of the spin-off “And Just Like That…”.
Cattrall will only appear in a chapter in which he will have a telephone conversation with the protagonist Carrie Bradshawwho is played by Sarah Jessica Parker, as reported by the specialized media Variety on Wednesday.
To carry out the scene, which was shot in March in New York City, the British actress did not have to see, or speak, with any of the stars of the series, nor with the creator Michael Patrick King.
But the return of Jones to the plot of the HBO Max series is temporary, since it is not confirmed that the character will continue in the story.
In 2016, Cattrall publicly made the decision to no longer play the character who gave him a Golden Globe in 2003, after considering that Jones had not had a fair personal development in the script for the third “Sex and the City” film. , which was eventually cancelled.
This generated tension with Parker, from whom he distanced himself and with whom he broke his friendship, and the creator of the story, And when plans for a spin-off of the hit 1998 show began, Cattrall wasn’t called in to fill in the rest of the cast of Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon.
The second season of “And Just Like That…” will premiere on June 22, but the scene featuring Samantha Jones won’t air until August.
Cattrall’s latest projects include the film “About My Father” opposite Robert De Niro, the series “How I Met Your Father” and the upcoming series “Glamorous.”
