Photos from the set of the Sex and the City sequel showing Sarah Jessica Parker flirting with Chris Noth (Mr. Big) have been leaked. What is far from enchanting us … We explain why.
On the last footage that leaked from the filming of the revival of Sex and the City in New York, we see Sarah Jessica Parker and Chris Noth very close. What to let imagine, contrary to the rumors of divorce, that Carrie and Mr. Big are still in love in the reboot of the show, And Just Like That, set to air on HBO in 2022. The two actors even posted on their respective accounts images of the couple appearing glued-tight. “Together again“Says the caption of the shot shared by Chris North.
While many were moved by this meeting, calling the photos “adorable”, we do not share this optimism. Indeed, if we look at the old episodes of the series, Mr. Big appears from the beginning as one of the most problematic characters of the small screen. And their relationship “on and off”, as one of the most toxic to have been filmed.

Mr. Big, the king of ghosting
Sex and The City showed characters of strong, intelligent women who are free of their sexuality. But also, male characters lacking in humanity. Among them, Mr. Big may have the pompom. Many have succumbed to his mysterious charm, his charisma, his class and his devastating smile. And became attached to this handsome man who seemed haunted by multiple demons. Except that his behavior of a powerful type to whom everything is due has never been acceptable.
Absent most of the time, while giving his mistress hope for a better future, Big has given Carrie nothing but crumbs. He spends his time making her run on her high heels without ever filling her need for love or reassuring her. It seems that Mr. Big has been bruised by his past relationships, which prompts him to drink his relatives with his hesitation. He communicates little or too late. He could even be declared “king of ghosting” before his time.
We can no longer count the number of times Big behaves with Carrie like a real bastard. He marries another (younger) woman, causes trouble in our heroine’s romantic relationships and returns to apologize for his behavior towards the sex columnist when she finally moves on. Suffice to say that for the reboot of Sex And The City, we wish this great feminist much better than an improved ass plan, as sexy as it is.
