Having solved his Samantha Jones problem, “And Just Like That...” executive producer and co-creator Michael Patrick King is realistic about one thing: Kim Cattrall won’t be back in the “Sex and the City” universe.
“The only place I participate in magical thinking is in fiction,” King told Variety in an interview published Tuesday. “You take people at their word, and you’re a smart producer — you don’t back yourself into a corner. Magically thinking, it’s great to have Samantha. I have no realistic expectation of Kim Cattrall ever appearing again.”
He said there was “no thought” that Cattrall would appear in HBO Max’s “And Just Like That ...” as Samantha Jones because the actress “said what she had said.”
