AceShowbiz - Kim Cattrall won't be back to "And Just Like That…" again. The 66-year-old actress will return as her "Sex and the City" role, Samantha Jones, for a cameo appearance in the upcoming second season of the spin-off show, but she insisted it's just a one-off and she won't be playing the publicist again in the future.
"This is as far as I'm gonna go," she said on "Today". Kim, however, insisted she won't say her own goodbyes to her alter ego because she's still "emotionally attached" to her.
She said, "I don't think I'll ever say goodbye to Samantha. She's like a lot of other characters that I've done over the years. I get very emotionally attached and protective of my characters. She gave me so much and I'm so appreciative of her."
The actress - who has been embroiled in a feud with former co-star Sarah Jessica Parker - was reassured when show bosses insisted they wanted her to be as "comfortable" as possible before she agreed to be make her cameo appearance.
She said, "It was quite an experience when the CEO of HBO calls you and says, 'How can I make this happen? I want you to have fun, I want you to be comfortable.' He said yes to everything that I knew was right for me."
The "Glamorous" actress - who is in a relationship with Russell Thomas - had a "wonderful afternoon" shooting her appearance. She said, "We started shooting, I think, around noon and I finished about four o'clock. And my partner Russ and I went home and had a dry martini."
When host Jenna Bush Hager said, "You know what, that's actually what Samantha would do!" Kim replied, "Cha-ching. Yes!"
