Whip out the cosmopolitan pre-mix and channel your inner Samantha – there’s a Sex and the City sequel in the works and it sounds very interesting.
While we’ve accepted (and maybe found ourselves semi-relieved) that a third Sex and the City movie is out of the question thanks to THAT feud between Kim Cattrall and Sarah Jessica Parker, the spirit of the HBO series could very well live on.
But it won’t be the SATC we all know and love.
Watch: Six times Samantha Jones was #goals. Post continues after.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, a new series from Sex and the City author Candace Bushnell is in development at Paramount TV.
It will be based on Bushnell’s new nonfiction book Is There Still Sex in the City? which follows “the love and dating habits of middle-aged men and women on Manhattan’s Upper East Side,” a topic we can’t say we’ve seen played out much on our television screens.
The book, which hasn’t even come out yet but is set to be published in early August, follows characters in their 50s and 60s navigating the modern dating world. (Yes, that means Tinder).

Less to do with a "feud" and more to do with the fact Cattrall very reasonably stuck to her guns and maintained she had no intentions to revisit the role, and refused to be bullied into it. There was theoretically nothing stopping SJP from flogging the idea without Cattrall.
There's an obsession with any celebrity "feud".
Yeah, interestingly, this one seems to spring from people's inability to understand that a) women who play friends in a TV series aren't automatically BFFs in real life and b) a female actor is quite entitled to decline to appear in a film if she doesn't want to.
Cattrall has simply acted assertively, and it's all being reduced to a "feud". That's one step away from calling it a "catfight".
"women who play friends in a TV series aren't automatically BFFs in real life".
Yes. Wow. They were just people who worked together over 15 years ago. They were not actual best friends.
