Carrie and Mr. Big are reunited in a romantic photo taken on the set of the And Just Like That..., HBO Max's upcoming Sex and the City reboot. The on-screen couple is played by Sarah Jessica Parker and Chris Noth, who will reprise their roles in the highly anticipated sequel. The series will be a continuation of the hit HBO comedy-drama about four women living fashionably in New York while exploring social themes such as feminism, inclusion, and sexuality. Sex and the City also starred Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis, and Cynthia Nixon in the lead roles and led to massive global success that spawned two sequel films in 2008 and 2010.
Parker famously played the show's official narrator as Carrie, a successful newspaper columnist. Carrie is known for her flamboyant outfits and her long quest for true love. In the original series finale, she finally ended up with Mr. Big, her on-again-off-again boyfriend since the first season. The two finally got married in the first movie despite Big's initial jitters. In the second film, the couple struggled with their marriage after Carrie had a brief liaison with her ex-fiancé Aidan (John Corbett). In true Big fashion, he then presented her with a stunning black diamond ring to re-affirm his love and commitment.
Now, Parker and Noth have delighted Sex and the City fans by sharing new pictures of the two of them together while filming for the reboot. In the photos, Carrie and Big looked happily in love as they shared an embrace and gazed at each other's eyes. In the upcoming series, the onscreen husband-and-wife should be in their 50s by now, which explains the grey streaks in their hair. Parker can be seen sporting Carrie's signature curls, while Noth traded Big's trademark suit for something more casual. "These 2. I bet they stay out late tonight," Parker wrote in her Instagram post.

Details about And Just Like That... remain top-secret, but Carrie and Big's relationship will likely be central to its plot. It's been more than 10 years since Carrie and Big were seen together on the screen and the couple should have encountered a few bumps along the way. Interestingly, both their exes have been confirmed to make an appearance in the reboot. Corbett will return to play Aidan while actress Bridget Moynahan, who played Big's ex-wife Natasha in the original series, has been spotted on the set. Their presence only heightens fans' speculations that Carrie and Big might be headed for a divorce.
Carrie and Big have always had a complicated relationship since the beginning of Sex and the City. However, the series and its sequel films always ended with them being able to overcome any obstacle. While it's hard to imagine Carrie without her biggest love, much has changed since audiences last saw the two of them. A divorce is something Carrie, who's known to be independent and bold, would consider if her marriage is in serious trouble. Audiences will have to wait until And Just Like That... premieres on HBO Max to know if the couple will choose to fight for their happy ever after or decide to live happily separated instead.
