The Feud Between Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall: The Truth Unveiled in “And Just Like That”

If you are a fan of chick lityou have surely read all the books by Candace Bushnell, like Lipstick Jungle, four blondes and of course, Sex and the City. If so, the announcement of Kim Cattrall’s (very small) return to And Just Like Thatthe sequel to the television series Sex and the Citymust have made your little mules wriggle.

It did for us, because Samantha Jones is clearly the most interesting, sexy and bubbly Samantha on the small screen (after Samantha, oops!, Of course). And let’s face it, we were quite resigned to never seeing Kim Cattrall again in our favorite role, that of the man-eater dressed in luxury brands from head to toe, because, unfortunately, we had heard about the bad atmosphere on the film sets of Sex and the City but we didn’t really know it was AT THAT POINT.

Take out your popcorn and other peanuts coated with caramel, we tell you everything.

We may be called sloppy, but we assume that before 2017, we weren’t really aware of the “war” between Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall. In the series, Carrie Bradshaw and Samantha Jones are best friends that everything opposes apart from their passion for Roger Vivier and Manolo Blahnik (which is already a lot). The first is a sleepy romantic who dreams of love with a capital A in her New York apartment filled with designer pieces and ideas for romantic chronicles. The second consumes her relationships as she consumes her favorite cocktails in trendy afterworks, that is to say: big and full-bodied.

But the complicity between the two (as well as with their friends Charlotte and Miranda) is one of the reasons that made us believe that it was a good idea to drop everything to become a journalist in a big city where the rent is so exorbitant that it almost becomes internal terrorism.

So imagine our shock when we found out that Kim Cattrall and Sarah Jessica Parker hated each other in real life!
For us, it all started with an interview with the one who plays Carrie. In 2017, she sadly announces that there will be no third part of the film Sex and the City : I’m disapointed. We had this beautiful, funny and happy scenario”.
We don’t work at the FBI but we quickly understood that obviously it wasn’t her the reason for the cancellation of the shoot. And as if by chance, just after this disastrous declaration, an anonymous source accuses, in the Daily MailKim Cattrall for killing the set of the film.

The straw for Madame Cattrall who is tired of wearing the hat every time something goes wrong. In addition, according to his tweet reaction to the article, she had already announced in 2016 her intention not to appear in the new film. But you know people’s love for scapegoats, the people made her a capricious diva. It would require too much money, too much time, too much attention, too much of everything.

The interpreter of Samantha Jones once again speaks on a famous British talk show and balances that her costars are not her friends, that their exchanges stopped at the same time as the series and that Sarah Jessica Parker could have been much, much nicer to her.

Askip, Sarah J has been a nuisance since the start of the series. So it goes back to 1998. And as in all teenage movie self-respecting, it all starts with jealousy. At the time, Kim Cattrall was at the height of her fame. She has just made films that are a hit. His role in Sex and the City is sparkling and sexy, her talent undeniable, her beauty piquant. She grabs the camera without too much effort and it doesn’t sit well with Mrs. Parker who is supposed to be the heroine and the main character. Instead of taking the example of her colleague, she will make an enemy of her.

According to New York Postthe interpreter of Carrie and that of Miranda knew each other before and very quickly included Kristin Davis (Charlotte) in their small clan by isolating Kim Cattrall. Page Six even says that during a shoot, Sarah Jessica Parker would have rented a house for her, Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon (Miranda) and that Cattrall found herself alone, like other events where they were supposed to stay as a team. We don’t tell you about the atmosphere.

Over the seasons, always according to Page Six, no one spoke to Kim anymore. And when you say nobody, it’s nobody. Even the make-up artists, hairdressers and other staff seemed to have chosen their side. In 2009, New York Magazine confirms that the two best friends on screen no longer speak to each other at all and that everyone is uncomfortable about it on the sets.

The one who plays Samantha Jones continues to film reluctantly. If she agrees to be in the first two films Sex and the City, she will categorically refuse the third. One, because she finds her pay doesn’t match the scale and impact of her character, and two, because Sarah Jessica Parker has been bullying her for years.

Which is really bittersweet. Because call us naive if you want, but we like to believe that people who have a great connection on screen are almost obliged to love each other or even to marry in real life, and especially that for a lot, Sex and the City will forever remain this inspiring series that fed our delusions of grandeur and where friendship between women was almost more life-saving than a romantic encounter. But obviously, we are too sensitive and the (real) world is mean, as Niska would say.

In any case, with all that, we understand a little better why Kim Cattrall accepted to return to the series And Just Like ThatFollowing Sex and the Cityonly with very specific conditions: not to see his costars or the showrunner of the series, Michael Patrick King, and to have a lot of money.
