Now that the Sex and the City movie is out on DVD [Region 1] [Region 2], I can reveal the big secret I’ve been keeping for almost a year: Ron Livingston — aka Berger, the boyfriend who broke up with Carrie via Post-it Note — doesn’t mind not having been asked to appear in the movie.
Oh, it’s not really a secret, just a neat little tidbit I’ve been hoarding since I spoke to Livingston last autumn, when I couldn’t resist asking him about a character that may be one of the most notorious fictional boyfriends ever:
MAJ: Sex and the City has fantasy sequences, flashbacks… dream sequences and nightmares… Are you sorry they didn’t find a part for Berger even if it had been through something like that?
RL: There were a lot of boyfriends on that show, and I don’t think there was room for all of them… I’m looking forward to seeing it [laughs] but ultimately, I think, if you had Jack Berger in it, the first thing you’d have to do is ask him about that Post-it Note, and I don’t know what the hell the answer is to that.
So put a Post-it Note on Berger.
