Cynthia Nixon has nothing but praise for And Just Like That…’s depiction of Miranda’s sexuality, as well as the gender identity of Charlotte’s child Rock.
The Emmy-winning actor and activist reprises her iconic role as Miranda Hobbes in the third season of the Sex and the City spin-off (now streaming in the UK on Sky and NOW TV). The new episodes also mark the return of series mainstays Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw and Kristin Davis as Charlotte York Goldenblatt.
After Miranda came to terms with her queerness in season one — sparking a relationship with Sara Ramirez’s controversial non-binary character, Che Diaz — Nixon tells GAY TIMES that she has embraced the ‘messiness’ of her character’s queer journey.
“I have loved it. I know that Che was a very controversial character, and I always wonder what people’s reaction to Che would’ve been had Che not been the person who, ostensibly, broke up Steve and Miranda,” she says.
