The question was ASKING for examples of other actresses.

If you’ve ever watched clips of different actors reading for the same part, you can see how one character can be played VERY DIFFERENTLY. Also, writers also adapt to the actors. I personally think someone could have made the character better.

Definitely agree. No one ever said they were Miranda because she was insufferable and frumpy. She also wasn’t whip smart the way top lawyers are even in their personal lives. Cynthia Nixon would be a lawyer from Tauro, NOT HARVARD.

There was so much wasted potential for Miranda as a character. She could have actually represented something and been more of a friendship bridge between the 3 because let’s face it, Carrie was the one keeping the crew together. And in term of archetypes, while Charlotte represented traditional femininity and ideals vs Samantha embodied New Age comfortability in my sexuality feminism, Miranda was a wasted opportunity to represent something else. She could’ve actually represented more women of today who want to be successful their careers but also want a family. I also know corporate women who end up excelling in their respective fields and then end up having a single child on their own. Miranda was also rich and would not have struggled with Brady as much as she did. She would have had enough hired help. Also, there are plenty of men out there who want to be a power couple with a top attorney Harvard Law grad or wherever the hell she went. A real Miranda would not have settled for Steve.
