Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon have much love for their late Sex and the City co-star Willie Garson.

The two paid tribute to the actor, who portrayed the inimitable Stanford Blatch on the series, while on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert on Tuesday.

Garson died in September at age 57 , just as the cast was shooting the HBO Max revival series, And Just Like That...; he was there for filming during the first three episodes.

Willie was just a person who just lightened any situation that he was in, Nixon said, as Davis reached to hold her hand.

Davis added that the actor was full of joy, and so incredibly brilliant and smart.
