Candace Bushnell Excluded from 'Sex and the City' Netflix Royalties

The author of the original 'Sex and the City' novel, Candace Bushnell, will not receive royalties from the series' Netflix deal, criticizing the business practices behind such decisions.

Warner Bros. Discovery licensed 'Sex and the City' to Netflix, excluding author Candace Bushnell from receiving royalties.
Bushnell criticizes the business practices in the entertainment industry, likening them to a Ponzi scheme.
The deal brings all six seasons of the show to Netflix, but not the sequel series 'And Just Like That'.
Bushnell, who was paid $100,000 by HBO for the screen rights in the 1990s, voices concern over the lack of financial benefit for women creators.
The author is focusing on her one-woman show, 'True Tales of Sex, Success, and Sex and the City', sharing her experiences and stories.
