The reboot centers around Carrie Bradshaw (played by Parker), Charlotte York (Davis) and Miranda Hobbes (Nixon) as they navigate life, love and friendship in their 50s. HBO Max confirmed that the series will consist of 10 half-hour episodes. Production is set to begin in New York City in late spring.

Noticably absent from the reboot line-up is actress Kim Cattrall, who played Samantha Jones. In a 2017 interview with Piers Morgan, Cattrall confirmed that she has moved on from the SATC franchise. “This isn’t about more money, this is not about more scenes, it’s not about any of those things,” Cattrall says. “This is about a clear decision, an empowered decision in my life to end one chapter and start another. I’m 61. It’s now.”

Created by Darren Star based on Candace Bushnell’s 1997 book of the same name, ‘Sex and the City’ first premiered on HBO in 1998. The iconic show ran for six seasons until 2004. In 2008, fans enjoyed the first installment of ‘Sex and the City’ the movie, followed by a sequel ‘Sex and the City 2’ in 2010. In 2013, a prequel starring Anna Sophia Robb, ‘The Carrie Diaries’, premiered on the CW.

“I grew up with these characters, and I can’t wait to see how their story has evolved in this new chapter, with the honesty, poignancy, humor and the beloved city that has always defined them,” Sarah Aubrey, head of original content at HBO Max, said in a statement.
