Word on the street is that Aidan Shaw will reunite with ex-fiancée Carrie Bradshaw in the next season of And Just Like That. That’s right, according to a new report, John Corbett is reprising his character, Aidan, and “set for a substantial, multi-episode arc,” according to Deadline.
Now, we’ve been down this road before. Ahead of season 1, Corbett told Page Six that he would be back in And Just Like That, adding that he might be in “quite a few” episodes. But after all 10 aired, he was no where to be found.
Turns out, he was only joking when he initially said it. Sarah Jessica Parker cleared it all up on Watch What Happens Live after the finale, saying what he said “was fun.”
“When he actually reached out, very kindly, because he’s nothing if not a gentleman, and apologized for doing that as a joke, and then I was like, ‘No, no, no, it’s a free country first of all.’ And I thought it was kind of delightful and kind of fun.”
When asked if it’s possible he could return, she said: “I think he would be … I mean, I’m not going, yes, all of it’s possible.”
In Deadline‘s new report, both HBO Max and Corbett declined to comment on the news of Corbett’s possible return for season 2.
Since we’ve been let down before, we’re taking this news with a grain of salt, but considering that Aidan previously made a memorable appearance in Sex and the City 2, when he and Carrie just so happen to be in the same souk in Abu Dhabi, we never know what’s in store.
