Kristin Davis AnnouncesSex and the CityPodcast to 'Continue the Conversation — What Does It All Mean Now?' (Exclusive)

Mar. 15, 2025

Kristin Davisis a Charlotte.

“This is probably old news to you,” she says, laughing. “No one’s asked me ‘Are you a Charlotte?’ in a long time. It used to be the main question that people would ask me in interviews. I think everyone just assumes that I am at this point.”

“I mean, I would say I’m a Charlotte with some Carrie mixed in. I’m probably more of a free spirit than Charlotte, in terms of my priorities in life,” she tells PEOPLE exclusively. “One of her main focuses has always been getting married, which has not been one of my focuses. Of course, it’s hard to be objective.”

All of that is kind of old news to Davis, 59, too. But here’s what’s new: An entire new generation of people have discoveredSATC— the show hit Netflix in April of this year. EnterMegan Thee Stallion, who just watched the series for the first time,telling Jimmy Fallon:“She is a little delulu but she would be my bestie because she’s so emotional.”

Davis says she freaked out when she watched Stallion’s appraisal on Instagram. “It still shows up on my feed all the time! It is the most amazing thing.” Like Meg, we arestilltalking about the show.

Davis (and, she promises, some very special guests) will soon be talking about the show, its legacy and relevance with women and, of course, sex, on a new iHeartRadio podcast. The title:Are You a Charlotte?

“There have been numerous people who have asked me over the years to do different versions of a podcast relating to the show,” she says. “But this time it felt right because our goal is to revisit the themes that the show brought up, that are still so relevant today.” She’s talking about sexual politics, sexual identity, friendship, and that original question in the very first episode, “Can women have sex like men?” and how the themes hold up today.

“When you think about the fact that we made the pilot in 1997," Davis says, “which is so crazy, first of all, and in the pilot we talk about basically ghosting, though we don’t use that word yet because it hadn’t been coined as such at that time.”

She sees how things have changed and hears (from people at airports and her friends' daughters) how they haven’t. “We’re definitely at a different place culturally, in terms of how we think about relationships and talk about relationships and sex. But I feel like a lot of the things that the show brought up originally, which were so kind of scandalous and shocking at the time now are very commonly discussed. And so I love that kind of evolution and I love being able to use the show as a jumping off point into those discussions. What does it all mean now? As I walk around in life, obviously a lot of people talk to me about the show and some people are just seeing it, young people, and then some people have such deep connections and tears are shed with me when they see me.”

It was these interactions, she says, led to the podcast.

She says she told Parker, her good friend and costar, and show creatorMichael Patrick Kingabout the project, out Jan. 13. “They’re excited about this idea,” Davis says. Can we expect co-stars like SJP on the podcast? “You’ll have to wait and see!”

In the trailer for the podcast, Charlotte, I mean Kristin walks down a New York City street. It’s a very familiar scene as she looks at a dog that resembles Elizabeth Taylor, spots a fancy handbag or two and eyeballs a Trey MacDougal-level diamond ring.

Fashion, really the fifth character inSex and the City, will be discussed on the podcast Davis promises. As for perhaps the most Charlotte item ever — the lipstick-printed skirt she wore in season 3, episodes 3 and 7, the latter being when she meets Trey — that iconic piece of Prada is hanging in her closet. “I wear it on special occasions!”

When, Davis says, she isreallyfeeling like a Charlotte.

The podcastAre you a Charlotte?premieres on iHeartRadio on Jan. 13.
