Here’s how the ‘Sex and the City’ revival is replacing Samantha

Apparently, it takes three new characters to make up for one Samantha Jones. 

The “Sex and the City” revival has found its replacement for Kim Cattrall’s sex-crazed character … sort of. The sequel series to HBO’s hit dramedy “Sex and the City” — titled “And Just Like That …” — will be sans Cattrall’s Samantha. Instead, it will fill her gap in the central friend group with three women of color — a shift toward inclusivity, since an all-white group of friends doesn’t make much sense in 2020s New York City. (It was previously reported that the sequel’s writing staff also would be more diverse.)
