Candace Bushnell whose novel about four Manhattan women and their love lives inspired a TV phenomenon, has revealed she’ll be receiving no royalties from the deal secured by Netflix recently to air the six seasons of Sex and the City on its platform. Besides the Netflix deal, the franchise is ploughing ahead with a third season of its sequel … And Just Like That, following the lives of Carrie, Charlotte and Miranda ( Sarah Jessica Parker, Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon).
