“I think that’s a bizarre reaction,” she said, saying that she personally thinks “Miranda is brave, and I think Miranda is charging forward.”
Cynthia continued, “She doesn’t know where she’s going exactly, but she knows she has to go somewhere. And I think that’s always been true of Miranda, right? Miranda’s very smart and she’s very tenacious, but the idea that she’s level-headed — she’s never been level-headed! She’s a loose cannon, a very opinionated loose cannon. She’s always been a bull in a china shop and losing her temper and blowing things up then having to backtrack when she calms down.”
“I feel like what Miranda does [on ‘And Just Like That’] is incredibly brave. She gives up her very lucrative corporate job and goes back to try and make something more of her life. As Miranda says: We’re not old, we’re 55. I mean, you’re certainly closer to the end than to the beginning. But if you’re not happy with where you are, you still have a lot of time to make a change.”
Cynthia then advised those fans wanting to see the original Miranda to watch Sex and the City.
“If I could do anything differently, I would have made sure we said to people in letters 10 feet tall: This is not ‘Sex and the City.’ If you’re looking for ‘Sex and the City,’ you should watch the reruns,” she said. “This is a new show for this moment, and for the moment in these original characters’ lives.”
Previously, Cynthia opened up about her reluctance to join the revival.
