Sarah Jessica Parker on Carrie’s Ongoing Aidan Entanglement: ‘It’s Hard Not to Search for That’
'And Just Like That' star Sarah Jessica Parker on Aidan's return, Carrie Bradshaw's new project and the 'Sex and the City' hero's quest for happiness.
Frustrated at just how out-of-reach Aidan seems, Carrie ends the episode by showing us a new side of herself: Sitting at her laptop and writing not a newspaper column but a fiction project, about an unnamed woman figuring out her life. The actress — who, on top of promotional duties, is currently reading multiple books a day in her capacity as a judge for the U.K.’s Booker Prize — spoke to Variety about the delight she feels at continuing to play opposite Corbett’s Aidan, Carrie’s own first steps as a novelist, and the character’s journey, some 27 years since “Sex and the City” first began, toward finding herself. It was interesting watching Anthony and Carrie argue about the relationship at the ballet; I imagine some potential viewers hearing his critiques of the back-and-forth nature of how she’s handling Aidan and thinking, “He speaks for me.” Clearly showrunner Michael Patrick King is aware of audience expectations.
