Sarah Jessica Parker shared the first images from the highly-anticipated Sex and the City reboot, And Just Like That ….
The actress, who is set to reprise her role as columnist Carrie Bradshaw, was joined by Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis, who play Miranda and Charlotte on the show, for a first read through of the script, ahead of production starting.
In a series of images posted to Instagram, Parker shared a picture of the script alongside the caption: “1st Table Read. @justlikethatmax Got here to work way too early. Nerves all a wonderful jumble. X, SJ”
The post sparked huge excitement among fans of the show, but it was soon surpassed when Parker later shared the first image of the trio back together, with the New York City skyline in the background.
“Together again. Read through our first episodes. @justlikethatmax Alongside all the fellas and our newest cast members. Like an ice cream sundae. X, SJ,” she wrote.
“This is so exciting,” wrote Instagram user Megan Fairchild, while Tiler Peck wrote, “Heart exploding”.
The post received nearly two million likes in 14 hours, and hundreds of thousands of comments.
