Kristin Davis Reveals the One 'Sex and the City' Love Scene That Made Her 'Cranky'
Kristin Davis gets candid on her podcast about the 'Sex and the City' love scene she hated filming, citing an awkward storyline and a grueling 11 p.m. call time.
On-screen, it was a passionate encounter. Behind the scenes, actress Kristin Davis just wanted it to be over. The star, famous for her role as Charlotte York on HBO's 'Sex and the City', has revealed a love scene that stood out for all the wrong reasons, making her so uncomfortable she just wanted to 'get out of there'.
Speaking on a recent episode of her podcast, 'Are You a Charlotte?', Davis, who played the character for six seasons from 1998 to 2004, got candid about the filming experience. According to Entertainment Weekly, she recalled, "I never liked the storyline, and then everyone liked it but me. It was just one of those awkward things."
The Scene in Question: A Funeral Fling
The scene that caused the frustration was from the Season 2 episode "Four Women and a Funeral." In it, Charlotte falls for a man named Ned (played by Kurt Deutsch), whom she meets at a cemetery. He claims to be mourning his dead wife, but it's later revealed he was faking his grief. Davis was quick to clarify her issue wasn't with her co-star. "It wasn't Kurt, that actor. I was not upset with Kurt," she said.
The Reality of an 11 PM Call Time
The real problem, she explained, was the grueling production schedule. "I think I had to come in at, like, 11 p.m. to film it also. So I was cranky about that." Davis described how scenes were often "moveable," meaning an actor might think they have a day off, only to be called in late at night to fill a gap after a lead actor like Sarah Jessica Parker wrapped for the day. "It's like pieces and puzzles that they're moving around, but it doesn't necessarily make it easy on the other actor," she noted. "They own you... You have to be a team player, or that's not great."
