Cattrall shot her scene without any involvement from the show’s current cast. The cameo is something of a bombshell for “Sex and the City” fans, as Cattrall publicly announced in 2016 that she was done playing Samantha for good when she didn’t feel like the script for a proposed third film did justice to the character.
