Many know her as the self-confident and daring Samantha Jones from “Sex and the City”, and Kim Cattrall, who will celebrate her 65th birthday on August 21, was a star in the 1980s.

After training as an actor at renowned schools in London and New York City, the native British landed numerous leading roles in films such as the rogue comedy “The Boss” (1985) with Jean-Paul Belmondo (88), the fantasy flick “Big Trouble in Little China” ( 1986) with Kurt Russell (70), in the romantic comedy “Mannequin” (1987) or the thriller “Masquerade – A fatal game” (1988) with Rob Lowe (57). Cattrall also had a leading role in the episode in “Police Academy – Dumber Than The Police Allow” (1984).

The beginning of Samantha Jones

Cattrall even won two Screen Actor Guild Awards and a Golden Globe for her performance. The sex talks by Samantha and her three friends Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker, 56), Charlotte York (Kristin Davis, 56) and Miranda Hobbes (Cyntha Nixon, 55) hit the nerve of the times then and now. To the disappointment of many fans, 2004 ended after six seasons and six years.

Four years later, the good news: the series was continued with a movie of the same name, in which the four actresses slipped into their famous roles again. In 2010 another sequel flickered on the international cinema screens.

That’s why she’s not on “And Just Like That …”

But what followed the success of the four actresses was one thing above all after the conclusion of the second film: a dispute that is said to have predominantly occurred between Kim Cattrall and Sarah Jessica Parker. According to various media reports, the reasons extended far into the past. There should have been discussions between the actresses on the set. Nixon, Parker and Davis allegedly often never exchanged a word with Cattrall, had three for lunch and stayed in different hotels while filming abroad.

In addition, the pay differences between the four actresses are said to have led to an argument on the set, according to rumors. While Nixon and Davis accepted that Parker deserved more because of their notoriety, Cattrall reportedly never got over the disadvantage, according to media reports.

Nevertheless, the three actresses always wanted to win over Cattrall for new projects, including the upcoming spin-off “And Just Like That …”, which is currently being shot. But Cattrall refused. The British Guardian She explained in the summer of 2019 that she had simply had enough of her role after the second film.

The couple lived in Frankfurt for several years, which is why Cattrall has a little command of the German language.
