Cue the pop jazz theme music, designer fashion labels and the New York City cityscapes: The « Sex and the City » ladies are back – well, at least most of them. HBO Max announced a new reoccurring character is coming to the city: Che Diaz, a nonbinary podcast host played by Sara Ramírez (« Grey’s Anatomy »). Diaz uses them/they pronouns with a « big heart, » « outrageous sense of humor and progressive, human overview of gender roles, » according to the character description. Ramirez played orthopedic surgeon Dr. Callie Torres, who was also part of the LGBTQ community, for a decade on ABC’s long-running medical drama. Months later, fans are still excited to know more, as details surfaced that production would begin in late spring. Here’s what we know so far: The revival, in New York City (of course) follows three of the series’ main characters – Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte – as « they navigate the journey from the complicated reality of life and friendship in their 30s to the even more complicated reality of life and friendship in their 50s, » HBO Max says. As before, the series is based on the Candice Bushnell book « Sex and the City » and the influence of the original 1998-2004 HBO series created by Darren Star. But HBO Max chief content officer Casey Bloys told TV Line says he’s « not trying to re-do Sex and the City. » « And Just Like That… » will consist of 10 30-minute episodes and will stream on HBO Max.
