An HBO exec is hinting at how the show will explain the absence of Samantha, and it’s actually kinda shady

Last month, HBO Max announced that they’re officially working on a revival of Sex and the City, the beloved show that ran from the late ’90s through the early aughts. Many fans were delighted, even though the series ran for six seasons and had one successful post-series feature film (we do not know nor acknowledge the sequel, though Stanford and Anthony’s wedding deserved its own movie). But it was quickly revealed that Kim Cattrall would not be part of the new show alongside Sarah Jessica Parker, Kristin Davis, and Cynthia Nixon.
