And Just Like That: Big, Aidan And Steve Are All Confirmed For SATC Revival

We are still completely obsessed with Sex and the City, nearly two decades after Big flew to Paris to bring Carrie home.

So naturally, we're literally counting down the hours until the long-awaited reboot/sequel, And Just Like That, finally hits our screens.

The show is thought to follow Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) and Charlotte (Kristin Davis) as they tackle their lives in their 50s.

And while we feared that Carrie's love affair was Mr Big (Chris Noth) could have come to a close, it has since been confirmed that Big, alongside Miranda's husband Steve (David Eigenberg) and Aidan Shaw (John Corbett) will all be returning to the franchise.

We cannot wait for the drama!

The news came after a senior production source told Mail Online: "Viewers will definitely see Big, Aiden and Steve."

However, there are some iconic SATC favourites we won't be seeing again.

The insider added that Patricia Bright, who served as the costume designer behind Carrie's iconic outfits, would not be returning, instead choosing to focus on the upcoming second series of Emily in Paris.

Instead, Molly Rogers, who worked as a costume designer on Ugly Betty and The Devil Wears Prada, takes the role - and has some rather big shoes to fill.

Sex-obsessed PR executive Samantha Jones, played to perfection by Kim Cattrall, will also not be returning, with Kim having pointed towards a feud between herself and the cast.

While Samantha will not be 'killed off' on screen, the character will be written out the show, with the source explaining that Samantha's friendship "moved in a different direction" to the other three women.

This is echoed by what HBO Max chief content officer Casey Bloys had previously said about changes in the line-up.

"[The cast] are trying to tell an honest story about being a woman in her 50s in New York," he told TVLine.

"So it should all feel somewhat organic, and the friends that you have when you're 30, you may not have when you're 50.

"Just as in real life, people come into your life, people leave. Friendships fade, and new friendships start. So I think it is all very indicative of the real stages, the actual stages of life."

The show is thought to start filming later this year, with its release date still to be confirmed.
