SATC Back on TV?

Sex and the City is reportedly returning as a TV series.

Hollywood bosses are said to have met this week to discuss the return. Sarah Jessica Parker apparently agreed to produce the show.

The actress, who starred as Carrie Bradshaw in the HBO series from 1998 until 2004, was allegedly reluctant to make another film after the lukewarm reception the Sex and the City 2 movie received.

"Ultimately Darren Star - the man who created the hit series - will have the overall say, but everyone is agreed a TV show is the direction they want to take the franchise in," a source toldThe Mail On Sunday.

"Sarah Jessica Parker will be producing. She was worried about doing another film after the bad reaction to the Sex and the City 2 movie, but a TV show is definitely something she wants to happen."

The news means that plans for a Sex and the City 2 prequel following the early lives of Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha and Miranda have now been put on hold.

Elizabeth Olsen had been linked to the role of Carrie, Blake Lively was rumored to be playing Samantha and Selena Gomez was tipped to star as a young Charlotte. Actress Emma Roberts had also been lined up for the role of Miranda.

"But they want to make the TV series before doing another film," the insider added.

Parker recently admitted that she still suffers from severe anxiety while on film sets.

Ugh- I hope this isn't true. It's like they are going to beat this show to death.

I was warming up to the idea of The Carrie Diaries, but this is going too far. I loved the show- but what could be next? 

Re: SATC Back on TV?

  • Do you have a link to the story?

    I love the show and think a prequel, whether as a movie or tv show could work with the right cast. I just don't like the actresses that were chosen for the prequel movie and I'll have to wait and see who gets cast for the show. I have to admit that I'll probably watch anyway but I'm really hoping it doesn't suck.

    Sorry- I meant to put them in.

    Aren't there any original ideas at all left???

    They want a reboot of everything from Footloose to Dirty Dancing to Dallas. Let well enough alone is right.
  • I'd rather watch the original cast for a little while longer than have a prequel start. It's just too hard to imagine other actresses playing the characters I already feel like I "know" so well.
