    And just like that, Kim Cattrall cleared up a major rumor.

    The actress, 67, denied that she is reprising her role as Samantha Jones in “And Just Like That” Season 3 .

    “Aw that’s so kind but I’m not,” Cattrall wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, responding to a report that claimed she’s appearing on the next season of the show.

    Life & Style reported on July 10 that Cattrall agreed to be on Season 3 of the “Sex and the City” sequel series, which stars her former co-stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis.

    She made a brief cameo during the Season 2 finale when Samantha calls Carrie Bradshaw (Parker) from London.

    ‘And Just Like That’ Season 3 release date quietly revealed — and it’s not anytime soon

    “Since they’ve paved the way for Samantha to come back, it’s assumed that they’ve done a deal with Kim and they’re just waiting for the right time to announce it,” an insider claimed to Life & Style.

    “The word is that she’ll get to do all her scenes in London,” the source further alleged. “They’ll be bending over backwards to pay her an absolute fortune, and it’s all on her terms because she’s so central to the franchise.”

    The insider also said that Cattrall wasn’t over her feud with Parker, 59.

    “She doesn’t do fake friendships, she’s not going to sit around and pretend to be best friends with Sarah, even if she does take the paycheck,” they claimed.

    Cattrall had initially refused to be on “And Just Like That,” expressing her displeasure regarding her character’s storyline and calling the spinoff “basically the third movie” based on the TV show.

    But in May 2023, The Post exclusively revealed that Cattrall would reprise her role in a cliffhanger cameo.

    The scene from the Season 2 finale saw Samantha calling Carrie and telling her that her flight from London was delayed, so she’d have to miss Carrie’s farewell dinner at her old apartment.

    Cattrall said on “The View” in June 2023 that it was HBO and Max chief content officer Casey Bloys who made the ask for her to return.

    “It’s very interesting to get a call from the head of HBO saying, ‘What can we do?’” Cattrall said during the interview. “And I went, ‘Hmmm … let me get creative.’ “

    There were rumors — and even some seeming evidence — of a feud between Cattrall and the rest of her former co-stars, including Parker. But she previously set the record straight by explaining that she was the one who chose not to return to the show.

    “I was never asked to be part of the reboot,” Cattrall said in an interview with Variety in 2022.

    “I made my feelings clear after the possible third movie, so I found out about it like everyone else did — on social media,” she added.

    Season 3 of “And Just Like That” is expected to premiere in 2025 on Max. Filming started at the end of April.
