Meanwhile, Noth’s ”Sex and the City” costars released a joint statement on social media saying they were saddened by the allegations but supported his accusers.
Chris Noth will no longer be part of the CBS series “The Equalizer” in the wake of sexual assault allegations against the actor.
Universal Television and CBS made a joint announcement on Monday that Noth would no longer be part of filming “effective immediately.”
Noth’s representatives had no immediate comment on “The Equalizer” decision.
His “Sex and the City” co-stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis issued a joint statement on social media saying they were saddened by the allegations against Noth but supported his accusers.
“We support the women who have come forward and shared their painful experiences,” a statement signed by the three read.
“We know that it must be a very difficult thing to do and we commend them for it.”
Accusations
Two women accused Noth of sexual assault in a story reported last week by The Hollywood Reporter.
One of the women who accused Noth of assaulting her said the reprisal of his Mr Big character on the “Sex and the City” sequel “And Just Like That…” prompted her to speak out about the actor.
Noth vehemently denied the allegations, which date back to 2004 and 2015.
“The accusations against me made by individuals I met years, even decades, ago are categorically false. These stories could’ve been from 30 years ago or 30 days ago — no always means no — that is a line I did not cross,” Noth said in a statement to the Reporter.
Noth has played a former CIA director on “The Equalizer,” which stars Queen Latifah. Noth will appear in at least one upcoming episode.
