Kim Cattrall worried she couldn’t be sexy at 50
Kim Cattrall dreaded returning to the set of Sex & the City for the TV show’s movie adaptation – because she feared that, at 50, she wouldn’t be sexy enough.
The 51-year-old actress was blamed for causing delays in the movie version of the hit TV series, reportedly demanding more money and creative control over the project.
But Cattrall admits it was, in fact, her lack of confidence as an aging Hollywood star that prevented her from immediately signing on to the project.
She needed reassurances from director Michael Patrick King before signing on to play sex siren Samantha Jones again.
She says, “I was quite nervous because it had been four years and I had turned 50. We did camera tests because all of us (cast) have aged. I worried about being sexy enough again. I said to Michael, `How can we do this? I want to look great and not feel self-conscious.’ And he always said, `We are going to take care of you.’”
