Max officially renewed And Just Like That… ahead of its much-anticipated season two finale which will feature the return of Kim Cattrall as Samantha. Season two episode 11 – part two of “The Last Supper” – finally delivers the cameo fans of the original foursome have eagerly anticipated.
Even though Samatha won’t be sharing scenes with her former Sex and the City co-stars, Cattrall will be seen in a cameo, styled by Patricia Field and shot in secret. In an interview on Today with Hoda and Jenna, Kim Cattrall confirmed that shopping in Bergdorf’s and picking out a great outfit for her cameo felt like dipping her toe back in time and having a wonderful afternoon.
However, fans shouldn’t expect Kim Cattrall back for the just-announced third season. It seems this short cameo is a one-off and not a precursor to an extended return as Samantha.
Commenting on the third season order, series creator and executive producer Michael Patrick King said, “We are thrilled to spend more time in the Sex and the City universe telling new stories about the lives of these relatable and aspirational characters played by these amazing actors. And Just Like That… here comes season three.”
And Just Like That… stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, and Kristin Davis as Carrie Bradshaw, Miranda Hobbs, and Charlotte York, respectively. Sara Ramírez plays Che Diaz, Sarita Choudhury is Seema Patel, Nicole Ari Parker is Lisa Todd Wexley, and Karen Pittman is Dr. Nya Wallace. Mario Cantone stars as Anthony Marentino, David Eigenberg plays Steve Brady, and Evan Handler is Harry Goldenblatt.
Season two also features Christopher Jackson as Herbert Wexley, Niall Cunningham as Brady Hobbes, Cathy Ang as Lily Goldenblatt, Alexa Swinton as Rose Goldenblatt, and John Corbett as Aidan Shaw.
“We are delighted to share that since the launch of season two, And Just Like That… ranks as the #1 Max Original overall, and is the most-watched returning Max Original to date. As we approach the highly anticipated season finale on Thursday, we raise our cosmos to Michael Patrick King and his magnificent team of writers, producers, cast and crew who continue to charm us, 25 years later, with dynamic friendships and engaging stories,” said Sarah Aubrey, Head of Original Content. “We cannot wait for audiences to see where season three will take our favorite New Yorkers.”
Season two premiered on June 22, 2023 and will finish up on August 24th. Max did not announce a targeted premiere date for season three.
