Kim Cattrall Honored at Banff World Television Festival

by Chandra on June 15th, 2008

Kim CattrallAs fans of the HBO series likely know, the recent movie version of Sex and the City was a huge hit, making millions of dollars at the box office, unexpectedly beating out big-name competition like Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and quickly reaching the status of most successful opening ever for an R-rated comedy.

Star Kim Cattrall recently visited Banff, Alberta, Canada, to attend the Banff World Television Festival, where she received the NBC Universal Award of Distinction.

During the appearance, the actress discussed her career in-depth, revealing that she turned down the role of Samantha Jones on Sex and the City not just once, but twice, and by the time she came to her senses, another actress had already been cast. Luckily for us, someone must have really wanted her to play that role.

Cattrall delivered more good news, as well, namely that a sequel to the Sex and the City flick is a given, and she would be willing to return when it’s time. Meanwhile, fans can catch her in her new HBO comedy Sensitive Skin, an adaptation of a U.K. series that she will both produce and star in as a middle-aged New Yorker who begins to explore her sexuality. Yep — there goes the sex stuff again.
