On 16 December, The Hollywood Reporter reported that two women had accused Noth of assaulting them years ago. One of the alleged incidents took place in Los Angeles in 2004, and the other in New York in 2015, as per the report. The women told the news outlet that HBO Max’s new series _And Just Like That_, where Noth reprised his role as Mr Big from Sex And The City, brought up their painful memories and prompted them to share their stories publicly. One of the women, who was using the pseudonym Zoe, alleged that she was assaulted by Noth in his West Hollywood apartment in 2004 when she was 22 years old. Another woman alleged that the 67-year-old actor raped her at his New York apartment in the year 2015. Noth, during an interview with Agency France Presse, denied all the allegations, calling them “categorically false.” A day after Noth denied the allegations, another woman levied allegations of sexual assault against him. The woman told the Daily Beast that the actor assaulted her in 2010 while she was working at a restaurant in New York City. Noth has issued another statement following the new allegations, claiming that the accusations are “a complete fabrication, and the alleged accounts detailed throughout reading like a piece of bad fiction.” Following the allegations, Noth was dropped from CBS drama The Equalizer. Earlier, the actor was dropped by the A3 Artists Agency after sexual assault allegations against him surfaced.
