Big issues on ‘SATC’ revival

LEAKED script details from the much-anticipated follow-up to “Sex and the City” seem to show Carrie Bradshaw and Mr. Big have split — and they’re in the midst of a bitter divorce.

While star Sarah Jessica Parker has been seen filming in NYC as her iconic “SATC” protagonist, Page Six can exclusively reveal in the new HBO Max series — “And Just Like That” — Carrie is bemoaning her divorce with Mr. Big, played by Chris Noth, to her friends.

Page Six has learned from an exclusive glimpse at a script for the revived show that Carrie — now in her 50s and the host of a podcast — and Mr. Big appear to be over and fighting over finances in a plot familiar to many real-life Manhattan socialites.

In the new scene, Carrie is dining with BFFs Stanford Blatch (played by Willie Garson), Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon) and Charlotte York Goldenblatt (Kristin Davis).

Carrie tells them she isn’t in a good place: “I was taping the podcast, I was washing my hair. Yes, I wasn’t eating or sleeping, but at least I felt good about my marriage. Now I’m just one of the wives he was taking care of ?”

Fans may recall that Mr. Big was married twice before wedding Carrie — to book publisher Barbara, played by Noelle Beck, and Natasha Naginsky, played by Bridget Moynahan.

In the “SATC” mythos, Mr. Big and Carrie are set to wed when he gets cold feet and leaves her at the altar at the New York Public Library. By the end of the first film, they finally tie the knot. Fans last watched the couple struggle through their first years of marriage as Carrie has a brief romantic liaison with her ex Aidan Shaw, played by John Corbett. When she confesses all to Mr. Big, he presents her with a huge black diamond ring to reconfirm their commitment.

While Kim Cattrall isn’t making a comeback as popular man-eater Samantha Jones, HBO Max has announced that actresses Nicole Ari Parker, Sarita Choudhury and Karen Pittman have joined the cast.
