Sex and the City star reveals spin-off scene she ‘didn’t want to do’

  • Sarah Jessica Parker discussed an awkward phone sex scene in the latest season of And Just Like That, clarifying she had no influence over it.
  • The scene features Carrie Bradshaw (Parker) and Aidan (John Corbett) engaging in phone sex during their relationship sabbatical, which Carrie ends up faking.
  • Parker stated that the scene was showrunner Michael Patrick King's idea, intended to show Carrie and Aidan attempting to stay connected while respecting boundaries.
  • Despite not wanting to film the scene, telling Glamour she “didn’t want to,” Parker felt she didn't have a strong enough defence against it and agreed to proceed.
  • Parker has previously expressed trust in King's writing, even when Bradshaw's decisions are controversial, and feels contractually obligated to play the character.
