Chris Noth recently reprised his Sex and the City role as Mr. Big in the premiere episode of the revival series And Just Like That… On Dec. 16, one week after the reboot’s release, The Hollywood Reporter published the accounts of two women accusing Noth of sexual assault.
Since then, several more women have come forward with allegations against Noth. One of his former co-stars, Zoe Lister-Jones, also shared her experiences of Noth’s “consistently sexually inappropriate” behavior.
Chris Noth denied the allegations in a statement to Us Weekly, saying that “the encounters were consensual” and the accusations “are categorically false.”
The actor has faced several consequences professionally since the allegations came out. He lost a $12 million tequila deal and his role in the TV series The Equalizer.

His scene from the finale of And Just Like That… was also cut since the accusations were published as the show was airing.
