For the Sex and the City movie franchise, the third time won’t be the charm.
The much talked-about third movie isn’t happening, and knowing what we know now, we’re happy that it won’t.
John James Preston, forever the Mr. Big of our hearts, would reportedly have been killed off in the third movie.
That explosive piece of SATC information came out on Monday’s episode of the Origins podcast hosted by journalist James Andrew Miller. In the episode, which featured interviews with all major cast members (except Kim Cattrall), Miller hinted that he has seen the script for the third movie before dropping the bombshell.
“[The script] calls for Mr. Big to die of a heart attack in the shower relatively early in the movie,” Miller said.
That’s right, Mr. Big was going meet his early death in the comfort of his lovely Fifth Avenue bathroom.
This bombshell was dropped while Miller was trying to get to the bottom of why actor Kim Cattrall had refused to star in the not-happening third movie. And apparently, one of the (non-money related) reasons was that Cattrall didn’t think that the script would have much to offer for her character, Samantha Jones.
According to Miller, the main focus of the script was Carrie’s grief over Mr. Big – not totally unlike the script of the first movie, tbh – and not her relationship with the three other women.
While Cattrall was not up for Mr. Big dying on her, the actor playing him, Chris Noth, seemed fine with the tragic fate of his character.
“I really hate the corny stuff, that could be because I’m a little bit of a cynic,” Noth told Miller on Origins. “I heard [the third film] was really a superior script, probably from having learned from, not the first two, but at least the second one.”
Not to be morbid, but we’d love to have seen the funeral attire.
