(ANSA) - NEW YORK, 12 JAN - A million dollars a bet for the stars of the new "Sex and the City": at the moment of the announcement on the highly anticipated sequel, "Variety" reveals the exclusive cachet that Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis will cash in on the miniseries titled "And JustLike That".
Ten million each for as many episodes of one million each.
A lot or a few?

A-listers like NicoleKidman, Jeff Bridges, Patrick Stewart, Reese Witherspoon and KerryWashington.
Pandemic permitting, filming should begin in spring in New York.
"And Just Like That", aired on Hbo Max, will follow the adventures of Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte, as fascinating as they were two decades ago, but now over 50.
