‘And Just Like That…’ Sex and the City Revival Renewed for Season 2
The hit Sex and the City revival series And Just Like That… has been renewed for a second season, HBO Max announced today (March 22). Per People, Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis are all set to return as their respective characters — Carrie Bradshaw, Miranda Hobbs and Charlotte York Goldenblatt — as they navigate love, friendship and their careers in New York City.
“I am delighted and excited to tell more stories about these vibrant, bold characters — played by these powerful, amazing actors,” executive producer Michael Patrick King said in a statement. “The fact is, we’re all thrilled. And Just like That… our Sex life is back.”
Sarah Aubrey, the Head of Original Content at HBO Max, added that they’ve been “delighted by the cultural conversation generated by these characters and their stories, set in a world we already know and love so much.”
The renewal comes after a highly successful first season for And Just like That…, which became the streaming service’s strongest debut to date, performing better than any other premiere for an HBO Max Original series. The 10-episode revival followed Carrie as a widow rediscovering herself with the help of her friends after the shocking death of her husband Mr. Big (Chris Noth). Season 1 ended with Carrie slowly re-entering the dating world.
Mr. Big’s death on the series premiere was one of the most talked-about moments from the show. Days after the first episode aired, Noth was accused of sexual assault from several women, prompting a public response from the principal cast of And Just Like That… as well as his removal from a planned flashback scene in the finale. (Noth has adamantly denied all allegations of misconduct.)
A premiere date for the second season of And Just like That… has not yet been announced.
