Kim Cattrall, There’s Life Beyond Samantha (and Sex and the City). And she looks fabulous

One of the most recurring questions from fans of Sex and the City And: is there life for Kim Cattrall beyond Samantha? Difficult to find a convincing answer because, as happened to many actors before her, the risk of being trapped forever in a character sometimes seems very high.

Many celebs in decline accuse Destiny of so much success which then suddenly vanished, others try to get by as best they can, Botox permitting.

For example Kim Cattrall tried in the series Filthy Rich to do the Kardashian with claws, but after ten episodes… bye bye!

It’s much funnier in the mature version of Hilary Duff in How I met your father (both on Disney+) but nothing iconic, to the point where we rip off our clothes for a cameo in And just like that… (on Sky and NOW). The spin-off with Carrie is partners stammered some improbable excuse with a quarrel for the absence – very unjustified – of Samantha, but now the public has achieved its goal and there will be an apparition (apparently in the flesh and not just for evocation).

(SPOILER FREE ZONE) The real big break, then, comes with Glamorousthe Netflix series (from June 22 on Netflix) in which is a wanna-be Miranda Priestley neither The devil wears Prada. Ex super top model recycled into cosmetics – there are plenty of examples around – she is obsessed with beauty (even the result of a surgeon) and takes an ugly duckling under her protective wing (Anne Hathaway should have a lifetime of thanks to the film producer who freed her from Disney projects with Hallmark quality between fake tiaras and unbearable grimaces).

At times he remembers Katy Keenthe series with which Lucy Hale tried to recycle herself (pretty Little Liars) without succeeding even if he relied on this elusive Cinderella mouse-like talent for overlocking.

His Madolyn Addison is told as if she were Heidi Klum but in reality he has a heart of cream and in fact adopts this young but unheard of social talent, Dizmal (Damian Terriquez), in a non-literal sense, in order not to wreck the company.

It’s all very naïve and very colorful and very fictionalized (Nothing Poses or Younger here) and enjoy a journey that draws from other contemporary series such as The Bold Type (Netflix) – but in a more light-hearted way – e The Amazing World of Zoey (Raiplay) – but without the musical aspect, indeed above all for the camaraderie of the office. Yes, it sounds more science fiction than Game of Thrones, but serial stories tend to reassure us about desk mates to avoid drifting into neorealism and portraying them as petty power-hungry traitors.

Waiting, therefore, to see it again on the fly And just like that… we just have to enjoy Kim Cattrall with some insecurity:in Glamorous gives the idea of ​​the bewildered, but in a good way. And while everyone else is marathoning dating on her apps, she seems genuinely content to stay away from the male gender. So no, at least at the beginning, she couldn’t find pencils to color with. But she who knows…
