Ah Mr. Big. We had such a lady boner for him back in the day. We never knew his name, he always wore suits and he said things like this...
Seriously though, how could anyone resist jumping this man?!
Well apparently Darren Star, creator of our holy grail Sex & The City, had another man in mind to play Mr. Big. We know, we know, it's basically sacrilege. But Darren was all about the Alec Baldwin factor at the time.
Thank good fuck that Darren happened to meet Chris Noth because there is legit nobody else who could embody Mr. Big's smoldering ridey-ness. Not that Alec Baldwin isn't a legend, but could you really picture him saying 'Ever thine, ever mine, ever ours' with any sincerity?!
"I don't really watch Law & Order, but I met with Chris Noth and thought he was perfect. I remember the first table read, how good he was. I'm not saying that Chris was Mr. Big, but he brought a lot of his own persona to the role." Yes he fucking did.
