It’s official now. The journey of Sex and the City is coming to a close once again. The latest spin-off, And Just Like That, will not continue after its third season. Michael Patrick King, who has been the main force behind the show, confirmed this news. He is the person who directs it, writes it, and guides the whole story. He shared a statement that season 3 will be the final chapter. After this update, the fans were shocked and full of questions.
The cast didn’t stay quiet either. Sarah Jessica Parker, Kristin Davis, and Cynthia Nixon all responded to the news. Each of them shared their personal feelings and memories. Their reactions were filled with love for the show and the people who supported it. Many fans online are now wondering the same thing. Was the show cancelled suddenly? Did something go wrong? Or was this always the plan?
There’s been no clear reason given yet. Some think it might be because of the story naturally ending. Others guess it could be due to the cost of making the show. Or maybe the team just felt it was time to say goodbye. Whatever the reason is, people who grew up watching Sex and the City and its spin-offs are feeling a little sad.
Currently, Hollywood Life has compiled all the facts and updates we have about the ending. Fans are waiting for more answers. But one thing is clear. This era of Carrie, Charlotte, and Miranda is reaching its final goodbye.
So, did HBO cancel And Just Like That?
So to answer this directly, yes, it was unfortunately cancelled. According to Deadline, Michael Patrick King told the cast that the show was being cancelled on July 31, 2025. That was just one day before he shared the news with everyone else online. He let the actors know first, then made it public the next day through his own social media.
Why was And Just Like That cancelled?
The reason And Just Like That is ending is that Michael Patrick King and Sarah Jessica Parker both felt that season 3 was the right time to stop. They agreed together that this moment felt like a natural and beautiful place to end the story.
On August 1, 2025, King posted a message on Instagram to share the news. He said that while he was writing the last episode of season 3, something clicked. It felt clear to him that this should be the final chapter. He made this decision along with Parker, Casey Bloys, and Sarah Aubrey. They all felt good about it. To make the ending more special, they turned the final season into a 12-episode run instead of 10, with a two-part finale.
King also explained why they waited to tell everyone. He said they didn’t want the word “final” to take away from the joy of watching the season. They wanted fans to enjoy each episode without thinking about the end too early.
He ended his message by thanking the audience. He said he was truly grateful to everyone who welcomed these characters into their homes and hearts over the years. It was a simple goodbye filled with love, respect, and closure.
When does the And Just Like That Season 3 finale come out?
The final episode of And Just Like That will air on August 14, 2025. That will be the last time fans see Carrie, Charlotte, and Miranda on screen together in this series. It marks the official end of the story that started many years ago with Sex and the City.
