And just like that, the spinoff of Sex and the City, And Just Like That, has been renewed for a third season. The news came ahead of the And Just Like That season 2 season finale on August 24. 

"We are delighted to share that since the launch of season two, And Just Like That… ranks as the #1 Max Original overall, and is the most-watched returning Max Original to date," said Sarah Aubrey, Head of Original Content at Max. "As we approach the highly anticipated season finale on Thursday, we raise our cosmos to Michael Patrick King and his magnificent team of writers, producers, cast and crew who continue to charm us, 25 years later, with dynamic friendships and engaging stories. We cannot wait for audiences to see where season three will take our favorite New Yorkers."

Executive producer Michael Patrick King expressed delight at the news. "We are thrilled to spend more time in the Sex And The City universe telling new stories about the lives of these relatable and aspirational characters played by these amazing actors. And Just Like That… here comes season three."

Here's everything we know about And Just Like That season 3. 

And Just Like That season 3 release date

Max announced that And Just Like That was renewed for a third season prior to the August 24 finale of And Just Like That season 2, which means that it's still too early for a release date. 

The first season premiered in December 2021 and the second season arrived in June 2022, which means that season 3 could likely arrive in time for summer or fall 2024, depending on when production begins on the next season. 

As soon as we learn more about a release date, we'll have it for you right here.

The first two seasons of And Just Like That are available to stream on Max.

And Just Like That season 3 cast

We don't know who will appear in season 3 just yet, but we can imagine that original Sex and the City stars Sarah Jessica Parker (Divorce), Kristen Davis (Holiday in the Wild) and Cynthia Nixon (Ratched) will be back for season 3. 

It's also safe to assume that the rest of the season 2 cast will return for season 3 including Sara Ramírez (Grey's Anatomy) as Che, Sarita Choudhury (Ramy) as Seema, Nicole Ari Parker (Empire) as Lisa, Karen Pittman (The Morning Show) as Nya, Mario Cantone (Better Things) as Anthony, David Eigenberg (Chicago Fire) as Steve, Evan Handler (Power) as Harry, Christopher Jackson (Bull) as Herbert, Niall Cunningham (Life in Pieces) as Brady, Cathy Ang (My Best Friends Exorcism) as Lile and Alexa Swinton (Billions) as Rock. 

The big question, of course, is whether John Corbett (My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3) will return as Aidan. Read on to see where Aidan ended up at the end of the season. 

And Just Like That season 3 plot

While we don't have the official plot for season 3 yet, we can make some guesses as to what happens based on what happened in the season 2 finale.  

Carrie and Aidan end season 2 on a bittersweet note. While he wasn't at the Last Supper, he showed up just after to tell Carrie he doesn't want to lose her but he needs her to give him space until his son can grow up. Yes, that means waiting five years. At first Carrie is shocked, but she settles into the idea enough to where she's sipping Cosmos on the beach in Greece with Seema, who will be waiting for her new man to return from a film shoot that's set to last five months. 

Miranda and Steve are in a better place after their divorce, Charlotte and Harry continue their idyllic marriage, Lisa and Herbert are closer than ever after she loses the baby, Nya and the chef are getting to know each other and Che is getting to know someone new. 

If they'd ended the series with the season 2 finale, it would have worked out. So it will be very interesting to see where season 3 goes.
