With the December premiere of HBO’s ‘And Just Like That’ spinoff, here are seven famous faces you may not remember landed roles on the OG ‘Sex and the City.’
TV & Movies Before they starred in WandaVision, Grey’s Anatomy, and A Star Is Born, these actors appeared in the HBO comedy. Sarah Jessica Parker was the absolute standout star of HBO’s Sex and the City, a romantic dramedy based on Candace Bushnell’s 1997 book of the same name. Though, it’s only fair to admit Carrie Bradshaw’s eye-catching wardrobe definitely came in at a close second. If you were completely taken by the character’s smile, charm, or the sparkle of her studded Manolo Blahniks — questionably expensive shoes for the writer of one weekly newspaper column — we can’t blame you. But allow us to pause the Carrie praise to illuminate a few of the famous actors who made guest appearances on Sex and the City that you may have forgotten about. Plenty of familiar faces made appearances throughout the series’ 94-episode run, and that’s not counting the two subsequent theatrical films. From Jon Bon Jovi, Alanis Morissette, and Vince Vaughn to Elizabeth Banks, Hugh Hefner, and Justin Theroux ( twice!), SATC is listed on the resumes of quite a few Hollywood actors. If you were too enamored by Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte, and Samantha’s love, sex, and drama-filled storylines to notice the celebrity guest stars, that’s understandable. But with the Dec.9 premiere of HBO Max’s spinoff series, And Just Like That…, you may want to refresh your memory in case any of them return to the world of SATC — especially in Samantha’s absence.
