A major new romance is on the horizon for young Carrie Bradshaw.
The Carrie Diaries has tapped relative newcomer Chris Wood (Major Crimes, Girls) to join the Season 2 cast as a big (no, not that Big) love interest for the show’s titular fashionista, TVLine has learned exclusively.

Described as a “wunderkind playwright,” Woods’ alter-ego, Adam Weaver, will develop a professional relationship with Carrie — one that quickly turns very personal. Shares executive producer Amy B. Harris, “Their romance will have a huge impact on Carrie and her ‘coming of age’ story, and will have profound repercussions for her and Sebastian.” (Sebastian, meanwhile, will have his hands full with Molly Sims.)
The Carrie Diaries’ sophomore season begins Friday, Oct. 25 at 8/7c.
