In a recent interview with Variety, when asked if she would be okay with Cattrall returning to the SATC franchise, Parker, referring to their long-time feud, stated:
Kim Cattrall was never asked to be a part of the SATC reboot, says Sarah Jessica Parker
In And Just Like That…, Samantha Jones is said to have moved to London for work and been detached from her gal pals - Carrie (Parker), Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) and Charlotte (Kristin Davis) - explaining her absence in the 10-episode-long series.
While speaking to Variety, Parker made it clear that Cattrall - who, in 2019, told Mail Online that she would never return as Samantha - was not even approached to be a part of the HBO Max revival of SATC. Parker told the outlet:
Sarah Jessica Parker also noted that there is a “very distinct line” between Cattrall and her on-screen character, who, according to Parker, has been done justice to in And Just Like That…:
In a separate interview with Variety, SATC showrunner Michael Patrick King, probably referring to Cattrall’s alleged monetary demands, stated:
King also told the portal that even though it seems like a great idea to have Samantha included in the show, he has no realistic expectation of Cattrall returning to the franchise.
The dispute between Parker and Cattrall first came forth in 2004, towards the end of SATC’s final season. The feud reportedly revolved around the fact that Parker’s pay was more than that of the other stars on the show.
Although Cattrall portrayed Parker as a “cruel” and “mean girl” who hides behind a “nice girl persona,” the latter claimed that she never “disliked” Cattrall.
