Willie Garson’s exit from And Just Like That has been revealed after the Stanford Blatch actor sadly passed away in September while the series was still filming.
The actor returned to play the character again for the sequel series which began airing earlier this year – and it has now been revealed how the showmakers handled his real-world death. He goes on to write: “I couldn’t tell you — not without crying. And you have had enough crying” – alluding to the death of John James ‘Mr Big’ Preston, who Carrie was married to, in episode one of the new series.
“Then he took a turn for the worst. I really thought we could get through the season. When he took a turn, we had to talk about the fact that he couldn’t make it. And we had to adjust [storylines].”
