In the first two minutes of 'Sex and the City', a notable political connection was almost established when Christopher Lawford, a cousin of John Kennedy Jr., was cast in a pivotal role. Kristin Davis' podcast, 'Are You a Charlotte?', featured guest Sarah Wynter discussing how she was surprised to learn of this casting choice, as Lawford was replaced before filming began. Wynter praised the initial idea of casting Lawford, describing it as a stroke of genius due to his prominent family background. The conversation further speculated about the fate of Wynter's character, Elizabeth, who notably vanished from the series after her storyline.
I remember the person that they had cast to play the boyfriend was not the person that wound up getting the job on set.
To have, like, this Kennedy - not Kennedy-esque, Kennedy, I remember thinking, 'That's perfect.'
Maybe she won a Pulitzer or something, I don't know. She was a journalist.
The initial casting of Christopher Lawford was genius, but he was replaced before filming.
