Chris Noth knows the questions are coming. He’s ready for them to the point that he can predict and pre-emptively answer some of them.
“I can tell you right off the bat: I was in Paris, I am in the last episode, I don’t know what the ending is,” he says.
The actor’s “Jeopardy”-like answers to questions that haven’t yet been asked are all about “Sex and the City,” which is ending its much-lauded, highly scrutinized and very fashionable six-season run on HBO on Sunday. Noth has been a pivotal part of the show, playing Carrie’s (Sarah Jessica Parker) great but unworkable love, Mr. Big.
Noth is giving nothing away by saying Big will be in the final episodes–HBO has featured him extensively in promos. He’s also not just being coy in saying he doesn’t know how the series wraps; he says three separate endings were shot.
Noth says he’s been “watching from afar” for most of the series’ last two seasons, as Big’s presence was substantially reduced when the character moved to California at the end of the fourth season.
