Cynthia Nixon, known for her role in HBO's "Sex and the City," continues to express her pro-Palestinian stance. In the new promotional video for the new season of "And Just Like That," the sequel series to the successful show, Nixon appeared wearing a shirt with a pattern resembling the Palestinian Authority's flag.
The video, distributed through HBO's official channels and the series' own platforms, represents just the latest instance of Nixon's political involvement since the outbreak of war in Gaza. The American actress has established herself as one of the prominent anti-Israel voices in Hollywood.
Something new and unexpected always awaits.

Nixon's activities have included signing petitions calling for a ceasefire, participating in demonstrations supporting Palestinians, posting supportive content on social media, and even undertaking a hunger strike to protest the fighting in Gaza, according to her statements.
Her wardrobe choice sparked immediate reactions on social media platforms, particularly in the comments section of HBO's official post. Some users shared screenshots of Nixon in the video, praising her as a "queen," while disappointed fans expressed their disapproval with comments like "shame on you after 10/7" and "you're a grotesque terrorist supporter and you ruined this show." Co-star Sarah Jessica Parker also faced criticism, with users questioning how the actress, who has Jewish heritage, allowed this to happen. "Shameful yet profitable that Sarah Jessica Parker permitted this," wrote one user, while another commented, "I guess being culturally Jewish with a Jewish father means nothing."

The social media reaction also included satirical remarks: "The only time the insufferable Cynthia Nixon has been close to the Middle East is when she went to Abu Dhabi to shoot the worst movie ever made," one commenter noted, referencing the 2010 film "Sex and the City 2."
Nixon's public actions add to a growing list of cases where Hollywood celebrities use their public platforms to express political positions regarding the conflict in the Middle East.
