A television series regular is set to return to the world of cosmopolitans and couture but sorry SATC superfans, it’s not Kim Cattrall.
Sitcom actress Candice Bergen is reprising her role as the fictional, no-nonsense Vogue editor Enid Frick in the Sex and the City spin-off, And Just Like That.
“Candice Bergen is back as Enid, which we’re thrilled about because I always loved Enid,” executive producer Michael Patrick King told Entertainment Weekly. “She is a cold, wonderful diva of publishing.”
Bergen made many appearances in the original series and even featured in the first SATC film: Sex And The City: The Movie.

Bergen is best known for her award-winning roles in Boston Legal and Murphy Brown, where she was nominated for three consecutive Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series awards and winning two of them.
Confirmation of Bergen’s return to the Sex and the City world comes six months after the star was spotted on set. She was photographed in December holding what seemed to be a script in New York City.
Also joining the cast in season 2 of And Just Like That is Carrie’s former lover Aiden, played by John Corbett, the furniture designer who she was engaged to before cheating on him with Mr. Big in the series.

“Two days after they won the Grammy, they’re on our show with a Carrie necklace that says ‘Sam.’ They said they and their sisters all have them.”
Of course, Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis are all coming back for season 2 of the series, as seen in the teaser trailer which dropped a few weeks ago.
