THE CARRIE DIARIES Season 2 First Look: Check Out Lindsey Gort as Samantha Jones!

When THE CARRIE DIARIES returns for its second season, Carrie Bradshaw will interact with a person who is very well known to SEX AND THE CITY fans: Samantha Jones!

“In another nerve-wracking search to create the amazing characters we all came to know and love on SEX AND THE CITY, we went out in search this year for a young Samantha Jones,” THE CARRIE DIARIES creator Amy B. Harris said in a statement. “Lindsey Gort walked into the room and owned the part. Funny and sexy with a whiff of vulnerability and an amazing dash of outrageousness, Lindsey is our exciting choice to play the young Samantha Jones.”

Carrie will meet TCD-era Samantha through a “surprising connection,” and the young Miss Jones is described as “a ballsy, beautiful and sexy young woman from the panhandle of Florida who has made her way — and already a name for herself — in the rock ’n’ roll scene of 1980s NYC.”

And while season 2 of THE CARRIE DIARIES won’t kick off until October 25th on The CW, we have your first look at Gort as Samantha…

The resemblance is pretty incredible, right?
