Sarita Choudhury gets candid about new season of 'And Just Like That’

Actress Sarita Choudhury says that she was “almost scared” of how much sex the new season of her successful HBO Max show And Just Like That features.

The Homeland alum, 56, plays the character of real estate agent Seema Patel in the show, which is a spin-off of Sex and the City.


“Let’s just say the intimacy coordinator was there every day. (There’s so much sex) I’m almost scared. When we were shooting it, I was like, ‘Oh my God, it’s going to be so much fun.’ Literally, everyone’s up to something. (With Seema being single) a lot can be thrown at me. And Carrie. This year a lot is happening,” she told a publication.

Most of the cast from season one of And Just Like That returns for the second season. Sarah Jessica Parker returns as the protagonist Carrie Bradshaw while Cynthia Nixon returns to play Miranda Hobbes. Kristin Davis will be seen reprising her role as Charlotte York. John Corbett, who is also known for his role in the romantic comedy film series My Big Fat Greek Wedding, will be returning as Aidan, the furniture designer who almost married Carrie twice.

Joining such an impressive cast, Sarita said she felt a lot of pressure not to “f*** up” the show. “I always thought I cannot believe I’m in such an iconic show. Like, I can't f*** this up. It really gets to you,” she said.

Talking about her friendship with Sarah Jessica, Sarita said, “(We catch up mostly) after work. Like, on a bench outside the studio when it's dusk and no one's really around. One day she said the nicest thing. Something like, 'We love you for your instinct. That's all you need. Just come play.' And it was weird, it kind of released something.”

And Just Like That Season 2 premieres on Max on June 22, 2023, with two episodes. After that, new episodes will be released weekly, arriving every Thursday.

Liam Neeson rejects anti-vax claims after documentary narration triggers wide backlash

Highlights:

  • Liam Neeson says he is not anti-vaccine
  • The film draws on a book by Judy Mikovits
  • Neeson’s representatives stress he did not shape the film’s content
  • Clips from the documentary promote fringe vaccine theories criticised by scientists
  • The actor has long backed global immunisation through his UNICEF

Liam Neeson has stepped into a storm not of his own making, pulled in by a vaccine debate tied to a documentary controversy he only narrates. The actor’s name is now attached to Plague of Corruption, a film built on claims that scientists and medical agencies have already challenged. His team says the link is misleading, stressing that Liam Neeson remains firmly pro-vaccine and did not shape a single line of the film’s message.
