Willie Garson Wades Into Sex And The City 3 Drama
Stanford Blatch has something to say.
The controversy surrounding the scrapping of a third Sex and the City film is heating up into a shade war as yet another star of the show has now responded to Kim Cattrall's remarks.
In a snarky tweet on Oct. 4, 2017, actor Willie Garson wrote, "Dear fans, because I'm 'toxic', I'm going to negotiate a contract for 6 months, not come to terms, then say I never wanted to do it anyway."
The tweet was an apparent response to co-star Kim Cattrall's recent interview with Piers Morgan (via the Daily Mail), during which she described her version of how the SATC3 negotiations broke down.
"And usually what happens in a healthy relationship is that someone, or a transaction for a job in my business, is that someone says, 'Are you available?' and you say 'Yes' and here's the job and you say 'Yes but thank you very much but I'm sort of over here right now but thank you very much' and that person turns to you and they say 'That's great, good luck to you, I wish you the best,'" Cattrall said, adding, "That's not what happened here, this is, it feels like a toxic relationship."
E! News also reported that Garson seemingly again refuted Cattrall's version of events in a response to a tweet that suggested if Cattrall didn't want to do the movie, then she shouldn't do it. "OF COURSE. Not what happened, but OF COURSE," Garson replied.
As Nicki Swift previously reported, Sarah Jessica Parker had already weighed in on the sequel's failure to launch, saying, "It's not just disappointing that we don't get to tell the story and have that experience, but more so for that audience that has been so vocal in wanting another movie."
Co-star Kristen Davis also expressed her disappointment on Instagram in a post that read, in part, "I wish that we could have made the final chapter, on our own terms, to complete the stories of our characters. It is deeply frustrating not to able to share that chapter (beautifully written by MPK) with all of you. So we will just have our memories, but please know that all of the love and support for us through the years is felt by us and we are so grateful for all of you! SATC forever in our hearts."
Cattrall has also thrown additional fuel onto the fire by apparently retweeting a Perez Hilton tweet that said, "RT if you think #SexAndTheCity should make a third movie and just kill @KimCattrall's character!"
While we wait to see which co-star fires the next shot, get caught up on some other infamous on-set feuds.
