Sweet baby jesus, no. Six seasons and two movies later, Sarah Jessica Parker still wants to soldier on with the depressing Sex and the City franchise. From Us,
“I would go back,” the 45-year-old actress told the L.A. Times from the set of her new movie, I Don’t Know How She Does It. “I think there’s one more story to tell. I know there is.”
“I’d definitely tell that [third] story, and I know Michael would do it right,” she says. “But maybe not now. Maybe in five years, you know?”
Why the wait? “It’s not that I want to get away from it,” the mom of three explained. “In a million years, who could get away from it?”
The actress also balks at reports claiming the next Sex and the City installment could be a prequel — one which would reportedly enlist Gossip Girl’s Blake Lively as a young Bradshaw.
“I was like, ‘Wha-a-a-a-t?'” Parker said. “There are a lot of important and interesting stories that 21-year-olds can tell. I don’t begrudge any 21-year-old the opportunity to tell their stories. They prove to us on an everyday basis that they’re interesting. Even their narcissism is interesting. Even their inertia is interesting. Even their tonal speech patterns are interesting.”
Did she seriously say in five years? Oh how I hope HD doesn’t get HD’er if this is true. But how is Kim Cattrall going to star in this? Is she going to be behind a table in every scene so we don’t see her walker? This is a terrible idea. This is like trying to keep a horse with a broken leg when you should be putting it out of its misery. The horse in this case is the Sex and the City series, not Sarah Jessica Parker, just in case there was any confusion.
