Kim Cattrall’s much buzzed-about return to the Sex And The City universe was kept so much under wraps that her co-stars had no idea about it until after filming was complete and made public.

Evan Handler, who stars as Stanley Goldenblatt in the hit reboot ...And Just Like That, revealed that the scene-stealing actress had no contact with other cast members of the hit series upon her much-hoped-for return.

Cattrall infamously swore off reprising her role as sexually freewheeling publicist Samantha Jones after blasting “Sex and the City” star and producer Sarah Jessica Parker.

The 66-year-old Golden Globe Award winner, who went on to star in reboots of How I Met Your Mother and Queer As Folk, played a major role on the beloved sitcom for six seasons and in its two blockbuster movies.

While Handler has seemingly welcomed her return – calling it “great” – he never got a chance to see her during production.

“Apparently, (her cameo) was shot in the garage somewhere with no contact with anybody, so the only place I have to welcome her is into my living room when it airs on television,” he told People.

The 62-year-old Juilliard School alum also revealed that he learned about Cattrall’s comeback “the same day (everyone else) did.”

Variety broke the news of Cattrall’s return, reporting that her character will have a phone conversation with Parker’s Carrie Bradshaw. Samantha Jones was unseen during the first season of the new series, only communicating via text messaging.

Cattrall’s And Just Like That... cameo will reportedly air during an August episode. The series returns June 22 on HBO Go streaming platform. – New York Daily News/Tribune News Service
