Kristin Davis Says ‘And Just Like That’ Cast Wasn’t Told the Series Would End After Season 3

Showrunner Michael Patrick King deemed the Season 3 finale a natural stopping point, delaying the news to avoid overshadowing the season.

Overview

  • In a preview for The Drew Barrymore Show, Davis said it was “definitely true” the cast did not know the Max series would conclude after its third season.
  • She explained the ensemble had a three-year commitment to one another and said she had assumed the show would continue beyond that term.
  • King announced on Aug. 1 that the ongoing Sex and the City storytelling would conclude, a decision he said became clear while writing the Season 3 finale.
  • King and Sarah Jessica Parker held the news until the final episode wrapped on Aug. 14 to keep the focus on watching the season rather than its ending.
  • After the announcement, cast members posted tributes, with Davis calling herself “profoundly sad,” and executive producer Elisa Zuritsky said a future return “could happen.”
