During an appearance on Wednesday’s The View, the actress, who portrayed Samantha Jones on the original HBO Sex and the City series and the two movies, opened up about her big return. Despite a long-running feud with series star and executive producer Sarah Jessica Parker, Cattrall is making a cameo in the Max show’s Season 2 finale — and revealed what led her to say yes.
“Well, it’s very interesting to get a call from the head of HBO saying, ‘What can we do?'” Cattrall recounted, referring to Casey Bloys, who is chairman and CEO of HBO and Max Content. “I went: ‘Hmmm…,'” Cattrall said with a big grin. “‘Let me get creative.'”
She continued, “One of those things was to get [former SATC costume designer Patricia] Field back. I just thought: If I’m going to come back, I got to come back with that kind of Samantha style. I got to push it — and we did.”
Cattrall didn’t mention her co-star or their drama and was tight-lipped on storyline.
