Kim Cattrall is not part of the sequel to ‘Sex and the City’, so they will have to create a clever way to explain his absence and apparently the first clue has arrived on how they will address this situation in the series.
HBO Max recently announced the partial date of its arrival in Mexico and with it a series of content will arrive, including the much announced reboot from the classic of Sex and the City. Could we consider the project as the third filmic part that was never made? We do not know, but what has been confirmed is that the production is titled And Just Like That… and will have 10 episodes. The original six seasons of the series and the two films are also part of the platform’s catalog. Sarah Jessica Parker (Carrie Bradshaw), Kristin Davis (Charlotte York) and Cynthia Nixon (Miranda Hobbes) have confirmed their participation in the reboot and by the way they will earn a million dollars per episode, without However, Kim Cattrall (Samantha), will not return mainly due to the bad relationship he has with Sarah Jessica for several years.

There is no denying that Cattrall’s absence causes a bit of conflict, since, although the starting point of the series was the character of Parker, it was always an ensemble series with four protagonists. Many theories spoke of replacing her with another similar actress; others to kill the character after Samantha suffered from breast cancer for a long time in the series, but the truth is that in an interview with TV Line, the director of content of HBO Max, Casey Bloys, hinted that the reason we won’t see Samantha in the story will be treated as a friendship breakdown: “It’s very much a story about women in their 50s and they’re dealing with things that people deal with in real life. People come into your life and then they leave ”.
What Bloys says is a narrative measure without tragedy and gives the possibility to do more seasons, if the project is successful, and perhaps leave the door open for the return of Cattrall in the future.. Although fans of the series know that a friendship like the one raised in the series is difficult to imagine without a member, the responsibility not to disappoint lies in the fact that the scripts are quite good and that they find a way to cover the obvious gap that Samantha leaves. :
‘And Just Like That …’ is the name that the new production of ‘Sex and the City’ will receive.
