Kim Cattrall splits from her younger boyfriend

Kim Cattrall

Sex and the City star Kim Cattrall has split from her much younger longtime beau, chef Alan Wyse.

Her rep tells E! News that the two have been together for five years but decided to go their separate ways “a while ago.”

“They remain friends,” the rep says.

Cattrall, 52, joked that her relationship with Wyse, 32, mirrored her SATC character Samantha Jones’ infamous fling with the much younger Smith Jared.

“When Alan and I first got together three years ago, I was a little embarrassed about how close to the storyline it seemed,” Cattrall told London’s The Daily Telegraph in 2007. “I was dating men closer to my own age, and I thought that Alan would just be a nice little interlude in my life. But he kept calling and pursuing me. And, you know what, I’m not complaining.”

“I’ve discovered that it’s really interesting to be with a man of another generation because he has different ways of looking at the world,” she told the paper.”Plus, irrespective of his age, Alan has a lot of wisdom that comes from just being him.”

At least Cattrall has work to help her cope with the split: The SATC movie sequel is due out May 28, 2010.

Sex and the City Stars Commit to Sequel!

Sarah Jessica Parker, 43, Kim Cattrall, 52, Cynthia Nixon, 42, and Kristin Davis, 43, have agreed to appear in the sequel to Sex and the City: The Movie.

“Not all the contracts are signed, but everyone is on board,” a source tells Us. “It just happened.”

Another insider notes that all the leads are getting hefty raises this time around. (Cattrall reportedly held out from doing the first movie for years because of Parker’s higher paycheck.)

The news is hardly a shocker: The 2008 comedy grossed $150 million — immediately prompting follow-up talk.

In September, Parker told Us she wasn’t against the idea.

“It’s all about the story,” she said. “If we can’t tell a story that’s really worthy of an audience, then we won’t do it.

“We’ve been really lucky at this point,” she continued. “We’ve been in people’s good graces for a long time, and we take that very seriously. So that’s the biggest challenge, the story.”

Nixon told Us she has a few ideas for her character, feisty lawyer Miranda Hobbes.

“I would love to see her and Carrie and Charlotte and Samantha all go off on some wild mad cap adventure somewhere,” she said.

Warner Bros. couldn’t be reached for comment.

Kim Cattrall was disturbed by Samantha’s cancer storyline

Kim Cattrall

Kim Cattrall was worried when her character in the hit show was given a cancer storyline – because she feared writers were doling out a theoretical punishment.

The 51-year-old plays maneater Samantha Jones in the hit show and the character is famed for her rampant sexual appetite and her wild lifestyle.

And Cattrall feared that when the script saw Samantha suffering from breast cancer, it was the writers’ way of punishing her for her risque life choices.

She says, “I was nervous at first because it felt like some kind of punishment. Any woman who can do what she wants and say what she wants and sleep with who she wants in society is punished. From medieval times she was stoned or they cut her throat, ex-communicated or banished and branded her as a whore. There’s always been that throughout history, a woman must pay for that freedom.”

“I felt that giving this character cancer could have taken on this connotation and I was kind of upset — but the (writers) told me they were going to handle it in a unique way and script after script it just got better. And I was very grateful for that.”

Kim Cattrall was denied a role in a play over her age

Kim Cattrall

Kim Cattrall was turned down for a role in award-winning play Educating Rita because she was too old.

The 51-year-old was so desperate to land a part in the famous stage production – she personally contacted playwright Willy Russell to talk him into hiring her.

Cattrall was turned down over her age, with Russell insisting he would prefer a young actress in the title role.
But Cattrall is not bitter about the snub.

She says, “I contacted Willy Russell a few years ago because I wanted to do a version (of Educating Rita). The idea was to make it about a working-class woman in her 40s, a woman’s realization of herself and the different possibilities for her. But he said it had been written for an actress in her 20s, which I respected.”

Kim Cattrall is going to star in a new HBO series

Kim Cattrall

“Sex and the City” co-star Kim Cattrall is back at HBO with another sex-themed single-camera comedy project set in New York.

Cattrall is set to star in and executive produce an adaptation of the British comedy series “Sensitive Skin,” which is being written and exec produced by Emmy-winning “The Sopranos” scribes Mitchell Burgess and Robin Green.

The project, in development at the pay cable network with a significant penalty attached to it, centers on a middle-aged wife and mother (Cattrall) in New York who rediscovers her sexuality and begins to question her place in the world and the choices she has made in life.

The original series, which aired on BBC Two for two seasons, was written and directed by Hugo Blick and starred Joanna Lumley as a well-to-do ex-model working at an art gallery in London.

“Sensitive Skin” falls under a development deal Cattrall inked with HBO when she signed on for the “Sex and the City” feature.

Cattrall, Burgess, Green and Blick are exec producing with Henry Normal, whose Baby Cow Prods. was behind the British series.

This is the second post-”Sex and the City” collaboration between Cattrall and HBO. In 2005, she exec produced and starred in the documentary “Kim Cattrall: Sexual Intelligence.”

“Sensitive Skin” also marks the latest British format to make its way to HBO’s development slate, along with the comedy “Suburban Shootout,” which is shooting a pilot written by Michelle Ashford and directed by Barry Sonnenfeld, and the recently picked up drama “Bad Girls,” which is being adapted by Alan Ball, Nancy Oliver and Raelle Tucker.

Cattrall, who won a Golden Globe for her role as Samantha on “Sex and the City,” recently starred in the ITV telefilm “My Boy Jack” in her native England.
