The hit display 'Sex and the City' spawned two movies plus a prequel collection, and enthusiasts nonetheless cannot get enough of Carrie Bradshaw and her pals. Now, with a continuation launching sometime in 2021, fans are having a look back at the historical past of 'SATC' and questioning why things went down just the approach they did.
For reference, the primary sequence lasted from 1998 to 2004, so it had six seasons. But it took four years to liberate 'Sex and the City' the movie, then another two years ahead of the sequel got here out. Then, 'The Carrie Diaries' originated in 2013 and best lasted a 12 months. Of route, some audience consider the 'Carrie' derivative more of an actual spinoff than a prequel, since the major cast contributors weren't (and reasonably understandably!) in it.
The main query in the 'SATC' timeline revolves round why it took 3 years to start the first film when the primary cast was once on hand immediately. And the answer is, it seems that, Kim Cattrall.
Samantha Jones was the holdup to the filming of the first 'SATC' movie, however it's not actually Kim's fault. And it's approach other than having a possible big name like Victoria Beckham saying no to 'Sex and the City' and backing away slowly.
In February 2004, when the series ended, HBO in an instant began promoting a film to observe. But through May of that yr, USA Today used to be reporting that Kim Cattrall was reluctant to sign onto the mission as a result of there was once no script or perhaps a start date when the studio pitched the idea.
Rather than wait around for the film to start (and it really well will have been scrapped at that time — every other 'SATC' initiatives have been), Kim opted to take on different initiatives that were offered to her at the time, stated her publicist.
Though her publicist's official commentary used to be that Kim would love to do the film if things came together higher later, USA Today reported that other assets advised Kim wanted script approval and a carry to spice up her to the identical degree as Sarah Jessica Parker, the lead actress on the mission.
It most definitely doesn't help Cattrall's reputation that she declined to take part in the upcoming reboot. Fans are even considering boycotting the show since Kim isn't slated to appear.
Fans have to ponder whether wage negotiations are part of the issue this time, too. But there may be another factor at play: in 2018, Kim's brother passed away. SJP publicly posted her condolences, which led to Cattrall penning a scathing post about Sarah Jessica not being her good friend and principally telling her to back off, highlighted Variety.
It seems like there's a lot more to the story than what some tabloids referred to as "diva" conduct on Kim's phase. It most probably did not lend a hand that she and the other three solid contributors were making $350K to Carrie's $3.2 million, if the figures StyleCaster reported are accurate.
No marvel Kim doesn't want to be Samantha anymore!
