And Just Like That Season 3 was released on May 29, 2025. As a continuation of the iconic Sex and the City franchise, the show again delves into friendship, aging, love, and identity shifts in a changing New York City. Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte's original trio is back with fresh emotional storylines as cast members depart and new people shake them up for Season 3.

And Just Like That has slowly built its narrative from pure nostalgia to a mix of authenticity in the world today and emotions. Season 3 sees the exit of two of the main characters from the previous season and the entry of a new crop of faces, maintaining the show's tone—warm, up-to-date, and in motion simultaneously.


Here is a rundown on who plays whom in the Max comedy drama And Just Like That Season 3

Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw

Sarah Jessica Parker returns as Carrie Bradshaw, once more at the center of the show. Carrie continues to be the narrator and emotional core, struggling with love, loss, creative passion, and all the rest.

Her own life throughout Season 3 is disrupted by the return of Aidan Shaw and office politics. Parker's labor remains at the center of the show's tone and construction.


Cynthia Nixon as Miranda Hobbes

Cynthia Nixon reprises Miranda Hobbes, but with an entirely different story in Season 3. Miranda returns to searching for personal development, co-parenting, and friendship, as Che Diaz (Sara Ramírez) is no longer present.

While she is not among Che's circle of friends anymore, Miranda also comes to terms with adulthood and creates a sense of identity with greater claims on difference and autonomy.


Kristin Davis as Charlotte York Goldenblatt

Kristin Davis is joined by Charlotte, adding her combination of vulnerability, dynamism, and discipline to And Just Like That Season 3. Her Season 3 storylines include dealing with the hurricane of adolescents, restarting life outside the home, and balancing marriage to Harry Goldenblatt (Evan Handler), also back this season.


Mario Cantone as Anthony Marentino

Mario Cantone is back as Anthony Marentino, but more featured than originally. With series regular billing for Giuseppe (Sebastiano Pigazzi), Anthony's existence is about romance, self-worth, and business with his bakery company, Hot Fellas. Anthony is there for laughs and emotional support for the season.


David Eigenberg as Steve Brady

David Eigenberg returns as Steve Brady, Miranda's former husband. His background guest appearances during And Just Like That Season 3 provide quiet reinforcement to Miranda's departure from divorce. Although of secondary status, Steve remains part of the show's extended family.


Sarita Choudhury as Seema Patel

Sarita Choudhury returns as Seema Patel, a principal Season 3 character. She's a self-assured, independent real estate agent with a more fully realized, complicated past with Carrie, whose narrative arcs still encapsulate being a single woman existing on her own terms. She is brought into the spotlight with the passing of other characters.


Nicole Ari Parker as Lisa Todd Wexley

Nicole Ari Parker plays Lisa Todd Wexley, a director and Charlotte's friend. She reappears for Season 3 as she deals with parenting issues, marriage, and husband Herbert Wexley's (played by Christopher Jackson) politicization. Lisa is firmly part of the main cast.


John Corbett as Aidan Shaw

John Corbett returns as recurring cast member Aidan Shaw, Carrie's on-again, off-again boyfriend. His And Just Like That Season 3 romance becomes real, after the struggle of patching things up in middle age and the emotional risks of do-overs.


Sebastiano Pigazzi as Giuseppe

Sebastiano Pigazzi, the guest star who portrayed Anthony's boyfriend Giuseppe, receives a series regular role. His romance with Anthony becomes more passionate during Season 3, introducing intimacy and warmth into Anthony's life.


Dolly Wells as Joy

Dolly Wells returns as Joy, a BBC producer who was briefly seen in Season 2. She is a series regular now and still a member of Carrie's expanding media world. The return of Joy is an omen for the story's interest in rehabilitating professionals and public narration.


Evan Handler as Harry Goldenblatt

Evan Handler remains Harry Goldenblatt, Charlotte's husband. Far from the center of most storylines, Harry does make appearances in Charlotte's home life, typically stuck between her exacting expectations and the ensuing disorder of their children's lives.


New members added in Season 3

And Just Like That Season 3 introduces some new faces to the cast, both recurring and guest:

  • Rosie O'Donnell guest stars as Mary, a new addition with roots that connect to the legacy three.
  • Patti LuPone guest stars in a multi-episode storyline.
  • Mehcad Brooks, Logan Marshall-Green, Jonathan Cake, Cheri Oteri, and Kristen Schaal are recurring or guest cast.

They are employed to continue storylines and to fill the story-void left behind by Che and Nya's departure.
