Elizabeth Wagmeister Senior CorrespondentFans have been calling for Kim Cattrall to make an appearance on “Emily in Paris,” ever since the “Sex and the City” sequel, “And Just Like That,” debuted without her iconic character Samantha Jones.
Why, you ask? Well, “Emily in Paris” is created by Darren Star, who also created “Sex and the City.”Star isn’t directly involved with “And Just Like That,” and neither is Cattrall.
