Noth still attracting attention for 'Sex'

NEW YORK, Dec. 11 (UPI) -- New York actor Chris Noth reportedly can't go very far without meeting people who want to discuss his "Sex and the City" character, Mr. Big.

"Chris and I were sitting in the car, shooting a scene in the middle of Manhattan traffic, and everyone was honking and getting impatient when we had to reshoot the scene," Noth's "Law & Order: Criminal Intent" co-star, Alicia Witt, told the New York Daily News.

"There was a burly, older truck driver who looked furious and was honking his horn and looking right at us. Chris stuck his head out the window to see what he wanted and the man shouted: 'Marry Carrie! Marry Carrie!' We died of laughter!"

Noth is reprising his role as Carrie's commitment-phobic beau in the upcoming "Sex and the City: The Movie," a big-screen follow-up to the hit TV show.

Actress Sarah Jessica Parker plays Carrie.
