Landmark / Starface
Over a million dollars per episode is what Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis would have required - and obtained - to reprise their roles in the new season of
Sex and the City
just announced by HBO Max according to
Variety
.
A comfortable salary in anticipation, since this sequel which is already bubbling impatient fans will have 10 episodes.
A salary that may seem amazing, but which can be explained by the fame of the original series.
Moreover, it is no longer rare for streaming platforms to agree to pay six-figure salaries to have big names on the bill for their projects.
Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington asked for no less to star in
Hulu's
Little Fires Everywhere
series.
Great expectations
Anyway, Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis will also take part in this season called
And Just Like That…
as producers alongside Michael Patrick King.
Filming is slated to begin in New York in late spring.

Obviously given the impact of the original series broadcast between 1998 and 2004, the expectations are immense, but so are the concerns.
What will
Sex and the City be like
without the character of Samantha Jones, Kim Cattrall having refused to participate in the project?
Will the series manage to be as modern as it started out and approach the love life of mature women by avoiding caricatures?
All that's left to do is cross your fingers and polish your Cosmopolitan before the arrival of this new season (or almost) of
Sex and the City
.

Cynthia Nixon is still embarrassed by the lack of racial and social diversity in "Sex and the City"
