The core trio of Parker, Davis, and Nixon will be returning as Carrie Bradshaw, Charlotte York-Goldenblatt, and Miranda Hobbes.

One character who will not be coming back in the third season is Nya (Karen Pittman). Pittman, who is also a series regular on The Morning Show, reportedly faced scheduling conflicts that made returning for Season 3 impossible, according to Deadline.
“It has been a joy to have Karen Pittman play the smart and stunning Professor Nya Wallace on the first two seasons of And Just Like That…,”a spokesperson for Max said in a statement to the outlet. “As we have thoroughly enjoyed working with this dynamic actress, so too have others. Due to her commitments to two other streamer series, it has become apparent that filming three shows at once isn’t possible. Due to the production realities, we are disappointed to announce that scheduling conflicts will not allow us to continue with this character as part of season 3 of And Just Like That… Karen and Nya will be missed, and her Max family and fans will all be cheering her on in her other endeavors.”
It’s unclear if Aidan (John Corbett) will reappear in Carrie’s life in Season 3. Corbett reprised the beloved character in Season 2. Aidan and Carrie rekindled their romance after healing old wounds. At the end of Season 2, Aidan’s son got into a nasty car accident in Virginia. Aidan decided he couldn’t split his time between Virginia and New York City anymore. He asked Carrie to wait five years until his youngest son was out of his teens.
