‘It’s Just Kind Of…’: Matthew Broderick Reveals He Never Appeared On Sex And The City Alongside Wife Sarah Jessica Parker Because Of THIS Reason

by

As a devoted fan of both Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker, I can’t help but feel a pang of nostalgia when I reflect on their shared journey in Hollywood. While it’s heartening to know that their love story remains as strong as ever, I can’t help but wonder what it would have been like to see them share the screen on Sex and the City.

Matthew Broderick has recently clarified why he didn’t appear on Sex and the City, the popular series that propelled his wife Sarah Jessica Parker to stardom. In a recent chat with James Corden on This Life of Mine, the 62-year-old actor explained that although the chance presented itself, various factors ultimately prevented him from joining the cast.

In a straightforward discussion about his absence from the famous series, Broderick stated, “Every time there was a part I could play, I couldn’t take it, was essentially the story.” Although he was offered roles on Sex and the City, Broderick acknowledged that some of the characters presented to him, such as one with premature ejaculation, didn’t resonate with him. “It’s just a bit awkward,” he admitted, explaining his reason for declining such offers.

In his own words, Broderick highlighted the fact that although his wife was the star as Carrie Bradshaw, the show’s team always demonstrated a high level of professionalism by not pushing him to be part of the cast. However, he confessed his regret: “If only I had been in it or given it a try.” In the end, he believed that the show truly belonged to Parker and thought that his presence might have overshadowed her brilliant on-screen performance.

The pair who tied the knot back in 1997 have maintained a lasting bond, equally captivating audiences onstage and off. They’ve collaborated in numerous productions, one notable example being their joint performance of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying on Broadway. Parker frequently expresses her admiration for Broderick, describing him as “the funniest” and “the most striking man I’ve ever laid eyes on.

Regardless of not featuring in Sex and the City, the relationship between Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick has persisted and thrived. This long-lasting pair, who have been together for more than two decades, are proud parents to three children, and they frequently express their profound affection and regard for each other. Broderick’s open statements serve as a testament that sometimes life doesn’t follow the script, but the connection between him and Parker is stronger than ever before.
