Known to most of the world as Mr Big, Chris Noth was cancelled - unfairly, he always claimed - at the height of Hollywood's #MeToo movement.
Now actor Chris Noth, best known as Mr Big from Sex And The City, is returning to the big screen for the first time in more than four years, in a very different role from the one which made him a global star.
Chris, 70, plays a creepy Stephen King-style horror writer in a psychological thriller called The Block, set for release next year.
In an interview with The Mail on Sunday, the film's director Craig Singer said: 'Chris's character is about as far from Mr Big as you can get. People are going to be blown away by his performance.'
Noth's world came crashing down shortly after Mr Big was killed off in the first episode of the Sex And The City sequel, And Just Like That, in 2021.
Two anonymous women came forward claiming he sexually assaulted them in separate incidents. No charges were ever brought.
However, following these accusations, Chris Noth has admitted that he did cheat on his wife, Tara Wilson.
Speaking to USA Today, he said: 'I strayed on my wife, and it's devastating to her and not a very pretty picture. What it isn't is a crime.'
Chris married his wife Tara in 2012, and the pair share two sons- Orion, who is 15, and Keat, who is three. He said that he had to speak to his teenage son about the allegations.
Chris has strenuously denied the allegations, saying what he did was consensual- even if it was morally wrong to cheat on his wife.
'You give yourself the same excuses that many men do; it's just a little side dance, and it's fun. You're not hurting anybody. No one's going to know about this, you know, and sex is just enjoyable,' he said.
And Just Like That 2021
At the time the allegations were made, Chris' co-stars from Sex And The City and And Just Like That, Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis issued a statement in support of his accusers.
It read '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.'
