Here is an interview with Chris Noth. It was taken from the Insider section of TV Guide's website yesterday. Enjoy!
Chris Noth's Big Sex Secret
by Daniel R. Coleridge
Sex and the City has only one episode left! Will Carrie Bradshaw and Mr. Big soon be reunited and feelin' so good? "I've got a sniper pointing a gun at me," Chris Noth tells TV Guide Online. "I can't say anything!"
Mr. Big's wisecracking portrayer will allow this much: "I am in the last episode. We did shoot in Paris. I was there, and it was great. We shot three different endings — rare, medium rare and well done — so I don't know what's going to happen in the end."
If Carrie doesn't stay single, many fans hope she ends up with Big, instead of artist Aleksandr Petrovsky, who's played by ballet star Mikhail Baryshnikov — aka the guy Sarah Jessica Parker has zero chemistry with. Asked what he thinks of the pairing, Noth is diplomatically quiet. "I can't really answer that," he says. "It's none of my business."
While he's flattered by all the attention he gets from Sex fans, he's clearly ready to leave HBO's hit girlie comedy behind. "You have to remember, I was in one episode of Season 5, so I've weaned myself off the show," he sighs. "Now, I'm back in a couple of this season's episodes, but the intense time of me doing Sex and the City was in the first four seasons. It's gratifying, but I'm pleased they've done what they've done and we're ending it."
Next up, Noth stars in tonight's darkly comedic TV movie, Bad Apple (9 pm/ET on TNT). It's about the FBI taking on the Mafia. "If you've seen the trailers, this might appear like another Donnie Brasco or Sopranos," he warns. "But in most FBI depictions, the agents are very tight-lipped, straight-laced, uptight and self-important. They're colorless and bloodless, and this is the opposite of that. We're more funny and real."
Though he's returning to his law enforcement roots, don't expect the Law & Order grad to sign on for another TV crime drama. He's been there, done that, and prefers the noncommittal life of a journeyman actor, moving from project to project. "But there's six novels in the Bad Apple book series [this film is based on]," he says, "so if this is successful, I hope to make a couple of these TV movies a year."
