Chris Noth Casts Doubt On 'Sex And The City 3': 'I Don't See It Happening'

NEW YORK, N.Y. --

His character name may be Mr. Big, but Chris Noth is thinking small when it comes to a rumored third installment of “Sex and The City” on the big screen – as in, non-existent.

The actor revealed to Parade.com that he doesn’t see a follow up to “Sex and The City 2,” which was poorly received in 2010.

“I don’t see it happening. But what do I know?” the actor said. “I’m always pleasantly surprised if they do one, and I’m not disappointed if they don’t.”

The actor said he preferred the now-movie franchise, back when it was the little series that could, on HBO.

“I miss the early days before it became sort of a circus of attention, when it hadn’t become this iconic thing. It was just really good writing and entertainment, and then it became something else that I still don’t really get,” he said.

When the second film was being made, photos surfaced of Kim Cattrall in a wedding dress, leading many to believe her character, Samantha Jones, would marry in the second film, something that never came to fruition. And it was scenes like the fake wedding that Noth said exemplified the fanaticism over the series-turned-movie.

“It actually got to the point with the movies that we had to make up plotlines so that people wouldn’t know what we were doing and expose it and it be all over the papers. That was pretty crazy,” he said. “You used to be able to go under the radar and have fun.”

Nowadays, Noth plays Peter Florrick on CBS’ “The Good Wife,” and he hinted he might not be around past Season 3.

“I think I have another season in me,” he told Parade. “We’ll see how he does politically, how he bears up.”

Thanks to a host of recent political scandals, it appears the writers of “The Good Wife” will have plenty to draw from.

“Thanks, [Anthony] Weiner! Appreciate that. Thanks, [Elliott] Spitzer. There’s so much of it happening that you can’t actually pin down one political mishap,” he added.

In-Game - Actor makes heroic leap from 'The Killing' to 'inFamous 2'

You’ve seen him on TV in AMC’s sizzling new crime drama "The Killing," as well as on shows like "Mad Men," "Big Love" and "Generation Kill," but now actor Eric Ladin will show the world what he can do with a part very different from those he’s played on television.

Starting next week, gamers will get a look at how Ladin put his acting chops to work in the highly anticipated video game "inFamous 2." Ladin plays leading man Cole MacGrath, a bike-messenger-turned-super-hero in the PlayStation 3 exclusive from Sucker Punch, which launches Tuesday.

Ladin spent the last year flying between Los Angeles and Vancouver B.C., working on both "inFamous 2" and "The Killing"(in the show, he plays Jamie Wright, campaign manager to mayoral candidate Darren Richmond). It’s not the first time Ladin has worked on a game — he previously voiced Ellis in the game "Left 4 Dead 2." But "inFamous 2" found the actor not only voicing Cole but, for the first time in his career, performing all the motion-capture work for the character as well.

I recently talked to Ladin about his work on the new game. We chatted about why doing motion capture terrified him, about how Cole has changed in this sequel and about why video games are vital to Hollywood actors and vice versa these days. Here’s what he had to say:

Can you tell me a little bit about how you came to the "inFamous 2" project?

I initially got the meeting from my voiceover agent who put me in touch with the casting people and then, once I met with them, I met with not only the director but some of the people from Sucker Punch and a couple of the other actors who I had chemistry reads with. Being the lead character of the game, they wanted to make sure that I not only had chemistry with the other actors in the game but they wanted to see my physicality and make sure I could handle the motion capture aspect of the game.

When they realized that I could handle that stuff, we then had meetings discussing the character of Cole MacGrath and once I got the role that’s when we really dove into who this character was and that's when I really became enamored with the project.

What was it that drew you to this project and this character?

I think what initially drew me to Cole was the fact that I would be able to play a super hero. I've said it before — I think every boy at some point wants to play a super hero. All of a sudden I was given the opportunity to do so. As I sat with Sucker Punch: and really got into it, Cole is an everyday guy. He actually shied away from the spotlight and became a bike messenger because he didn’t' really have any interest in doing things that could possibly lead to the corporate world. Then, when this super hero status was thrust upon him after he opened this package, it was 180 degrees and all of a sudden he was forced to save this world that he lived in.
