Cynthia Nixon ‘reluctant’ to star in Sex And The City reboot

The fourth character from the classic Sex And The City quartet, Samantha Jones, played by Kim Cattrall (right), famously did not appear in the reboot following years of a reported rift between her and Sarah Jessica Parker (second left) (PA)

Sex And The City star Cynthia Nixon has said she was “reluctant” to reboot the franchise but signed on to the project to right some of the wrongs of the original.

The actress, who played Miranda Hobbes, recently returned to the HBO comedy-drama with co-stars Sarah Jessica Parker and Kristin Davis.
