If you’re out here wondering how Kim Cattrall feels about the new Sex and the City revival, And Just Like That…, please look no further than her Twitter Likes. According to E! News, the actor Liked several not-that-subtle tweets referencing her lack of appearance in And Just Like That…, including but not limited to, “And just like that…I find myself only wanting to watch anything @KimCattrall is in,” “And just like that…I want to rewatch the 2014 HBO Canada prestige Toronto-set dramedy Sensitive Skin starring Kim Cattrall,” and “Kim Cattrall didn’t return to SATC because her scatting career is finally taking off.”

In case you missed it, And Just Like That… explained Samantha’s absence by saying she had gotten into a fight with Carrie and moved to London. Which, kay! Meanwhile, showrunner Michael Patrick King told the Hollywood Reporter that the revival had never even planned to include Samantha as a character.

“It never was on the radar as four because Kim Cattrall, for whatever reason, didn’t want to play Samantha anymore while we were doing the [third] movie,” he explained. “I never thought, ‘Oh, there’s a hole I have to fill.’ Samantha doesn’t not exist in their lives. The show was born of these three characters: What’s their life, and who can I bring in to inform it? Listen, I wouldn’t do this again if I wasn’t excited about the idea. And even though people think this is a franchise that they’re familiar with, there’s something new in this version. This isn’t what was; it’s what’s next.”

You can get a whole breakdown of why, exactly, Kim didn’t want to be in the third film/the show below:
