Sex and the City is known for many things — the female friendship of four strong women,
-
the unpredictable New York City dating scene, and risk-taking fashion.
-
But behind the scenes, the hit HBO series wasn't all tutus and cosmos.
-
Here are the dark secrets the cast of Sex and the City tried to hide.
-
"Lemme say one thing right now.
-
If one more person calls this a catfight"
-
It's hard to imagine Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis, and Cynthia Nixon
-
as anything other than best friends.
-
But according to at least some of the cast, that couldn't be further from the truth.
-
In 2004, Cattrall opened up about cast-related financial disputes, telling Friday Night with
-
Jonathan Ross,
-
"I felt after six years it was time for all of us to participate in the financial windfall
-
of Sex and the City.
-
When they didn't seem keen on that I thought it was time to move on."
-
Cattrall had hoped to snag $1 million per episode.
-
And while she had reportedly already been making $350,000 per episode — she was likely
-
making significantly less than Parker, who at one point, served as executive producer
-
on the show.
-
Even the greatest TV shows have their fair share of behind-the-scenes drama.
-
But according to the New York Post, trouble was brewing primarily between Cattrall and
-
Parker, with the latter having allegedly created a mean girls-like clique that left Cattrall
-
feeling left out.
-
Parker addressed the rumored bad blood, telling Marie Claire,
-
"When you're on set, you're working 90-hour weeks, you're never home, you're exhausted.
-
There are times when all of us have been sensitive, and sometimes feelings get hurt.
-
But I don't have any regrets about how I've treated people."
-
Cattrall also downplayed the drama at the time.
-
But it would creep up again just a few years later.
-
Following two successful movie sequels, Parker confirmed to Extra in 2017 that the third
-
film had officially been canceled.
-
"It's over…
-
No, yeah.
-
We're not doing it."
-
Admitting that she was more than disappointed about the outcome, she says she was also devastated
-
for fans who were hoping for more.
-
"I think more so it's for that audience that has been so vocal about wanting a third movie,
-
um."
-
Soon after Parker's announcement, the Daily Mail placed the blame on Cattrall and her
-
demands, claiming that she had allegedly asked Warner Bros. to also produce additional projects
-
for her.
-
Uninterested, the company reportedly scrapped the third installment, rather than continue
-
without the original Samantha.
-
But Cattrall had a very different take on the drama.
-
After the cancelation, Cattrall told Piers Morgan that she'd been clear about not wanting
-
to continue to play Samantha Jones, and criticized studio execs for how they handled the situation.
-
"I take to task the people from Sex and the City, and specifically Sarah Jessica Parker."
-
She also claimed the whole thing felt like "a toxic relationship."
-
“Nobody ever picks up the phone and tries to contact you and say, 'How are you doing?'"
-
Co-star Willie Garson hit back, alleging Cattrall had attempted to secure a contract long before
-
walking away from the third film.
-
He tweeted:
-
"Dear fans, because I'm 'toxic,' I'm going to negotiate a contract for 6 months, not
-
come to terms, then say I never wanted to do it anyway."
-
"To be thought of as some kind of diva is absolutely ridiculous.”
-
While it was no secret that they weren't exactly besties, Cattrall further distanced herself
-
from Parker when she told Morgan,
-
“We've never been friends."
-
Parker later responded to the jab, telling Andy Cohen,
-
"That's not the way I recall our experience."
-
Hoping that their bond from having done the show might "eclipse" any bad feelings, she
-
added,
-
"I always think that what ties us together was this singular experience.
-
It was a professional experience but it became personal."
-
Parker would later extend an olive branch, offering her condolences after the death of
-
Cattrall's brother, but the move just cranked up the tensions even further.
-
Parker is synonymous with her character, Carrie Bradshaw — a fan of love, friendship, and
-
designer shoes.
-
But, according to Cattrall, Parker isn't like that in real life at all.
-
After Parker reached out following her brother's death, Cattrall posted to Parker:
-
"You are not my family.
-
You are not my friend.
-
So I'm writing to tell you one last time to stop exploiting our tragedy in order to restore
-
your 'nice girl' persona."
-
Looks like this tea is still piping hot.
