26 Famous Men You Forgot Were on ‘Sex and the City’
As an unabashed fan of SATC (yes, still), I find myself spending a fair amount of time writing about the show’s characters, despite the fact that it’s been off the air for more than a decade. And while Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte take up their fair of the conversation, Bradley Cooper and Justin Theroux‘s brief appearances on Sex and the City can still get me talking.

I’ve noticed, however, that a lot less attention gets paid to the men of the show than the women. Not the Aidans, the Steves, and the Mr. Bigs, but rather the actors ( like Cooper and Theroux) who appeared on the series in small roles, and who have since have gone on to do big things in the entertainment world.
For example, did you know that the tiny character Barclay — a young artist friend of Carrie’s who had a thing for taping himself having sex with models in Season 1 — is now the star of the USA hit Suits? Or that Bill Kelley, the politician with a penchant for golden showers, is John Slattery, who went on to star as Roger Sterling in Mad Men? How about the fact that Theroux slipped onto the show twice, playing two different characters, and Bravo kingpin Andy Cohen appeared in SATC‘s final season?
