He’s gone for good.

The final episode of And Just Like That… is about to look a lot different from everyone expected as Mr Big won’t be making a comeback.

A scene bringing back Chris Noth’s character has been reportedly cut from the finale of the reboot series following sexual assault allegations made against him.

Last month, multiple women came forward accusing the 67 year old of sexual misconduct, which Noth has denied saying they are “categorically false” and the encounters were “consensual.”

Fans of the series will recall his character dying from a heart attack in the first episode of the Sex and the City reboot And Just Like That… but was set to be reunited with Carrie in a fantasy scene set in Paris.

TV Line first reported that the creative team from the series had decided to cut the scene, saying it could be edited out as it was not narratively necessary.

The final episode is set to stream on February 3, and HBO Max is yet to comment on the reports.

The leading ladies of Sex and The City have now spoken out about the allegations, posting a statement to social media.

Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kirstin Davis collectively said: “We are deeply saddened to hear the allegations against Chris Noth.

“We support the women who have come forward and shared their painful experiences. We know it must be a very difficult thing to do and we commend them for it.”

Noth has also been dropped from his role in the CBS drama The Equalizer.

The Hollywood Reporter revealed that two women named “Zoe” and “Lily” have both alleged that they were sexually assaulted by Noth in 2004 and in 2015, respectively. A third woman has since come forward with similar allegations dating back to the 90s.
