To the surprise of perhaps no one, speculation about a season two for HBO Max’s buzzy Sex and the City revival, And Just Like That…, has begun.
The series has had its fair share of highs (see: Carrie’s iconic looks returning) and lows (Big’s tragic Peloton episode). But no matter where you stand on Miranda and Che Diaz, the show undoubtedly had us talking. And that discourse may keep going as it seems a season two could be on the horizon. Here’s what we know so far.
Will there be a season two of And Just Like That…?
Us Weekly reported back in December that discussion surrounding a second season had halted following allegations of sexual assault against Chris Noth. But according to a new report from Page Six, sources close to the show are optimistic about a possible renewal.
“The creative conversations haven’t happened yet, but everyone is feeling good about the show,” a source told Page Six. “They may feel that they want to prove a point that they can make a second season stronger and that it was valid to bring it back for fans,” another source added.
The season-one finale is set to air on February 3. And provided the series doesn’t kill off another character, there’s hope we’ll see the core cast return for another season.
Executive producer Michael Patrick King has hinted that he’d be open to continuing the story of Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte (and maybe Samantha?). “As we were working, it always felt like the beginning,” he told Emmy magazine, per E! News. “It didn’t feel like a beginning, middle, and an end. So I think it’s possible to keep going—if we have enough good stories.”
Casey Bloys, HBO’s chief content officer, also said a season two isn’t off the table. “To tell you the truth, it would be a conversation, because I have no idea,” Bloys told Vulture. “They kind of came together to do this. They were all really busy and doing other things. So it is certainly a conversation we’ll have—for sure. But we haven’t decided anything or done anything…. I’m going to leave it up to these guys to figure out what they want to do, but I’m very happy with what they’ve done. I will tell you, it’s kind of what you want in a show like this. It really does feel like you’re picking up with old friends and haven’t missed a beat.”
But how does the cast feel about a potential season two?
Interestingly, And Just Like That… star Cynthia Nixon has been noncommittal about a second season. “Even though I’m an executive producer and I got to direct an episode, I am not a writer,” Nixon told Entertainment Tonight on January 20. “And so, that is one of the great privileges of being a writer, that it’s not my job to figure it out, thank God.”
