Cynthia Nixon was spotted filming a scene for the upcoming season of And Just Like That in New York City on Friday.
She sat at an outside table at a cafe with Dolly Wells, who plays Joy, a potential love interest for Nixon’s Miranda – as is Rosie O’Donnell’s Mary who was spotted filming with Nixon earlier this month.
Cynthia looks off in the distance as if she sees someone she recognizes in one of the photos.
In another, Dolly leans over to pet a cute grey dog who has run up to them when Miranda’s son Brady, played by Niall Cunningham, walks up to them.
In two other snaps, the women are deep in discussion and Dolly reaches out to put her hand over Cynthia’s.

Cynthia Nixon addresses the exit of 'controversial character' Che Diaz
Dolly appeared in the last two episodes of the second season of the Sex and the City spinoff.
She is one of two recurring characters who were promoted to series regulars for season three.
Sebastiano Pigazzi, who plays himbo Giuseppe, was also made a series regular.
Along with O’Donnell, Mehcad Brooks, Jonathan Cake and Logan Marshall-Green have joined the cast as recurring characters.
The official logline for Season 3 states: ‘This new chapter of the groundbreaking Sex and the City franchise finds Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte, alongside new and familiar friends, navigating the complicated reality of friendship, family and New York in their 50s.’
Last month, Nixon talked about the departure of Sara Ramirez’s character Che Diaz from And Just Like That in a new interview with Variety.
‘They created such an amazing character — such a controversial character, but such an amazing character,’ the Emmy winner, 58, said.
The mother-of-three continued: ‘I think they felt, and Michael Patrick King [And Just Like That’s creator] felt, that that character had run its course. They came in and shook everything up, and then the arc was completed.’
Nixon also reflected on how, over the years, she’s grown to be more like her character on the series while Miranda has become ‘much more like’ her.
In January, insiders told DailyMail.com that Ramirez had been dropped from the cast as many felt her character was a ‘waste of airtime’ and ‘annoying’ viewers.

This came after Ramirez heavily suggested their time on the show was over for expressing pro-Palestinian beliefs.
But a source close to the show ridiculed the suggestion, claiming Ramirez’s head had been ‘on the chopping block since last season’ because their character ‘held no value anymore’ and was ‘annoying.’
‘Sara was not fired because they support Palestine and the cease fire,’ they told DailyMail.com exclusively. ‘Sara was fired because Che brought nothing to the show anymore. They were on the chopping block since last season.
‘After Che split with Miranda, the character really held no value anymore and fans found them annoying. The storyline as a struggling comedian was a waste of airtime and Sara knew it.’
