Chris Noth reportedly scrubbed from ‘And Just Like That’ season finale after sexual assault allegations

Mr. Big has been booted.

Despite being killed off at the end of the first episode of “Sex and the City” reboot “And Just Like That,” Carrie’s ill-fated husband was supposed to say one final goodbye in a flashback in the season finale, set to air Feb. 3.

But after star Chris Noth was accused of sexual assault by multiple women, HBO Max has magicked him out of the episode, according to TVLine.

A spokesperson for the streaming service declined to comment when reached by the Daily News Thursday.

The season finale is meant to be closure for Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) as she spreads Big’s ashes into Paris’ Seine river off the Pont des Arts bridge, according to TVLine. That closure was supposed to come with one last glimpse at her one true love, but any fleeting images have been digitally erased.

Following the premiere of “And Just Like That,” which picks up with three of “Sex and the City’s” four women in real time, two women separately told the Hollywood Reporter that the 67-year-old actor had raped them, the first in Los Angeles in 2004 and the second in New York in 2015. A third woman told the Daily Beast that Noth digitally penetrated her without her consent and a fourth claimed he groped her at her New York apartment in 2002 and threatened to ruin her singing career if she told anyone.

Noth has denied all allegations of misconduct.

In a joint statement, Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis praised the alleged victims for coming forward.

“We are deeply saddened to hear the allegations against Chris Noth,” the trio said in a statement shared on their individual Instagram accounts on Dec. 20. “We support the women who have come forward and share their painful experiences. We know it must be a very difficult thing to do and we commend them for it.”

Noth has also been dumped from “The Equalizer,” the CBS drama in which he played William Bishop, a former CIA director-turned-private security and friend of Robyn McCall (Queen Latifah).
