While Chris Noth’s Mr. Big was killed off And Just Like That season 1, the remaining characters are still processing his loss in season 2.“[Big’s death] is in a way [a story line] you wouldn’t expect … but it comes out in ways that you wouldn’t expect it to be,” Sarita Choudhury, who portrays Seema Patel on AJLT, exclusively told Us Weekly on Tuesday, June 13. “It’s gonna affect [Sarah Jessica Parker’s Carrie Bradshaw] in [one] scene ‘cause she’s really ready for life again.

So you think she’s all fine, but there were one or two moments that moved me [because] I was like, ‘Oh, I didn’t think she’d be vulnerable there, you know?’”And Just Like That — a modern-day revival of Sex and the City — premiered in December 2021, as Carrie, Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) and Charlotte (Kristin Davis) navigated their friendships and relationships in their 50s.

Carrie, for her part, grieved the loss of her husband, Mr. Big, after his tragic death via a grueling Peloton workout. (Noth’s exit came on the heels of the 68-year-old actor’s sexual misconduct scandal, which he has denied.)Choudhury, 56, further noted to Us that the loss of Big was the most heartbreaking scene from the debut season. “I mean, probably the death last season, like, if that hadn’t happened, there’s probably so many [scenes] that I can go to, but I just never seen that expression in her,” she said on Tuesday.By the end of AJLT season 1, Carrie traveled to Paris — where she and Big initially rekindled their on-off romance at the end of the HBO drama — to scatter his ashes.

She is expected to move on in season 2 with her former flame Aidan Shaw (John Corbett). The twosome were spotted packing on the PDA in photographs from set and in the teaser trailer.While Choudhury
