As a fan rewatching the entire Sex and the City series for what feels like the hundredth time, I can hardly wait for the upcoming revival, And Just Like That…. Each update about the series, set to premiere next year, only heightens our anticipation. The latest announcement confirms the return of beloved characters Steve Brady, Anthony Marentino, Harry Goldenblatt, and Stanford Blatch.
Executive Producer Michael Patrick King expressed enthusiasm about continuing the storylines of these cherished characters, stating, “Everyone at And Just Like That… is thrilled to be able to continue the storylines of these beloved Sex and the City characters with the actors who made them so lovable.”
Joining Sarah Jessica Parker (Carrie), Cynthia Nixon (Miranda), and Kristin Davis (Charlotte) in And Just Like That… are Mario Cantone (Anthony), David Eigenberg (Steve), Willie Garson (Stanford), and Evan Handler (Harry). These returning actors will contribute to the narrative as Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte navigate love and friendship in their 50s.
Parker shared her excitement about the passage of time, wondering how the characters have evolved: “Who are they in this world now? Have they adapted? What part have they played? Where have they fallen short as women, as friends, and how are they finding their way?” She expressed curiosity about how the writers will portray these women today.
Additionally, Grey’s Anatomy alum Sara Ramírez will join the cast, portraying Che Diaz—a non-binary, queer standup comedian who hosts a podcast featuring Carrie.
The series was teased in January through a trailer featuring clips of New York City intertwined with the phrase “And just like that.” Parker captioned the teaser with a reflective question: “I couldn’t help but wonder, where are they now?”
This ten-episode series plans to begin production in New York this summer, though it will proceed without the iconic Samantha Jones, played by Kim Cattrall. Parker clarified, “We’re not looking to create a fourth character. We have New York City as the fourth character,” promising that many new and intriguing characters will be introduced.
Parker also mentioned that the storyline will undoubtedly address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, emphasizing its relevance to the characters’ lives. “How has that changed relationships once friends disappear?” she pondered, expressing confidence in the writers’ ability to explore these themes. The writers’ team is diverse and brings fresh perspectives to the show, which Parker finds exciting.
