And Just Like That… season 2 finale spoilers follow.
Kim Cattrall improvised a key moment from her cameo in And Just Like That….
The actress reprised her role as Samantha Jones in Thursday's (August 24) season finale for a brief moment where she caught up with Carrie Bradshaw on the phone.
While Samantha missed her flight to New York City for Carrie's farewell dinner at her apartment, she did "pay [her] respects" to the flat in a sweet moment.
Viewers may have noticed that Samantha's cameo ended when she kissed her phone after saying goodbye to Carrie — and it turns out that sweet moment was entirely Kim Cattrall's idea.
Speaking on the show's Writers Room podcast, showrunner Michael Patrick King confirmed that Samantha's goodbye kiss was "not in the script".
"It was totally [an example of] of an actor playing a moment. And it's really nice," the writer noted.
And Just Like That, the sequel to Sex and the City, airs on Max in the US and Sky Comedy and NOW in the UK.
