“Sex And The City 3” Would Have Killed Off Mr. Big And Kim Cattrall Wasn’t Into It




#KimCattrall is said to have felt that centering the film on the death of Mr. Big “didn’t have a lot to offer the character of Samantha.”

The third Sex And The City film that almost happened, the version actor Kim Cattrall declined to sign on for, would have killed Mr. Big within the first act, according to an oral history with cast and creators of the iconic show.

Journalist James Andrew Miller revealed on his Originspodcast that, after talking to Sex And The City creator Michael Patrick King, and stars #SarahJessicaParker, #CynthiaNixon, and #KristinDavis, the plan for Sex And The City 3 was to have Mr. Big (#ChrisNoth) die of a heart attack in the shower early on in the film.

Miller says he also spoke to sources close to Cattrall who did not believe she ever planned on joining the third movie but was put off even more by the plot detail. Miller's sources said "the remainder of the movie [was] more about how Carrie recovers from Big’s death than about the relationship between the four women,” meaning the script "didn’t have a lot to offer the character of Samantha."

Parker added that she had been in touch with Cattrall and her manager trying to negotiate a deal, but "ultimately the studio said, ‘We can’t meet those asks of hers. We’re not able to do it…the economics don’t make sense for us.’"

Parker also insisted she has no ill will toward Cattrall.

BuzzFeed News has reached out to a representative for Cattrall for comment.

Why Christopher Reeve's ''Superman' Is So Hard to Leave in the Past

#ChristopherReeve #Clarkkent #DCcomics #LoisLane #RichardDonner #Superman Forty years ago, Richard Donner and Christopher Reeve made a Superhero film that directors have been chasing for years, depicting who America was then — or at least who we wished to be Superman. It’s now easy to believe a man can fly. It wasn’t in 1978, but today, in midst of an explosion of superhero movies, it’s a belief we give into with relative ease. Flight is most often the bare minimum of what we expect from heroes and villains who can perform any feat limited only by the human imagination. It’s not simply special effects that permit our belief, but rather an overall acceptance that these costume-clad characters are a defining part of our culture, modern myths at their best and populist cinematic staples akin to the 20th century western at their lowest form. There have been a record nine theatrically released superhero movies based on comic books this year alone, each claiming a major piece of the glo...
