Few actors are as synonymous with HBO as Sarah Jessica Paker, who turned Carrie Bradshaw into a television icon in Sex and the City and its sequel series, And Just Like That. Premiering in 2021, And Just Like That picks up 17 years after the SATC finale and catches up with Carrie, Charlotte (Kristin Davis), and Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) who are now navigating life in their fifties. SATC fan-favorite Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall) is famously absent from And Just Like That, and is one of the biggest reasons for the show's mixed reception.
