Here it is! We’ve finally got our first look at Carrie Bradshaw before Mr. Big, before the clothes and the shoes.
The CW will debut ‘The Carrie Diaries’ in January. It stars AnnaSophia Robb in the role made famous by Sarah Jessica Parker. It will chronicle Carrie’s senior year of high school, which took place in New York in the 1980s.
Hope it’s good – the preview looks great – although I am disturbed by the “hot dog in a keyhole” comment.
AnnaSophia Robb has been cast to play the young Carrie Bradshaw in the CW’s ‘Sex and the City’ prequel, ‘The Carrie Diaries’.
You may recognize the young actress from ‘Soul Surfer’ and as Violet in ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’.
‘The Carrie Diaries’ will tell the story of a young Bradshaw coming of age in Manhattan in the 1980s. The show will follow the novel, of the same name, written by Candace Bushnell. Young Bradshaw will face issues such as love, sex, drugs and other teen problems.
Really Sarah? Really?
Here’s to hoping that they DON’T decide to tell another ‘Sex and the City’ story, because the last movie was absolutely ridiculous. I adored the show when it was on HBO, and I even loved the first SATC movie. But the second? It was a joke. A third? Methinks that’s a terrible idea.
Since Sarah Jessica Parker’s pop-culture legacy is so tied to her portrayal of Carrie Bradshaw on “Sex and the City” and its two movies, whenever MTV News has the opportunity to chat with the actress, we have to get an update on the beloved series.
Thankfully, we caught up with Parker at the Cannes Film Festival and asked her to comment on the rumors about a “SATC” prequel, as well as her thoughts on returning to the famed role of Ms. Bradshaw one more time.
“I think it always comes down to story and what is the story people want to tell,” Bradshaw said of the rumored adaptations of “The Carrie Diaries.” “Obviously, I feel proprietary in the best possible way about that entire franchise as it were, but I think there are lots of talented storytellers and obviously lots of talented actors who might be a part of it. I think, like anything, you base your opinion on material and content, and I think that would be the only way for any of us to have an opinion.”
Regarding a future “SATC” installment, be it on the big screen or small, Parker revealed that there might be another tale to tell.
“I think there is perhaps one more small, important story to tell,” she said. “Whether or not we choose to do that and when we choose to do that remains, obviously, the unknown, but it’s nice to ponder.”
One more story, huh? We mentioned that it sounded like Parker has that specific story in her head.
“I don’t, but somebody else does,” she said with a knowing smile.
All together now – nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
On the other hand – I’m totally excited for the SATC prequel! Can’t wait for that!

‘Sex and the City’ actress Cynthia Nixon and partner Christine Marinoni have released the first picture of their son, Max Ellington Nixon-Marinoni.
Marinoni, 43, gave birth to the babe last Monday, and the couple, who began dating in 2004 and announced their engagement in 2009, have not made public any details of the baby’s biological father.
Nixon has two children — Samantha, 15, and Charles, 8 — from her previous relationship with Danny Mozes.
“Maybe I’m just lucky, but I feel like Christine is so amazing with our kids — because they’re our kids,” the Sex and the City star told The Advocate last year. “I feel like falling in love with her is part of being amazed at how she makes our family so much better.”
A new rumor is spreading online today, one that sounds intriguing! According to Grazia, Blake Lively is being considered to play a young Carrie Bradshaw in a prequel to the role Sarah Jessica Parker made famous.
Studio bosses are in talks to fill the glamour void with a prequel film, following the success of Candace Bushnell’s bestselling book The Carrie Diaries, about the teenage years of her heroine.
Candace has just finished a second novel called Summer And The City, which takes up where Diaries left off and follows 19-year-old Carrie’s move from Connecticut to NYC.
SATC producer Michael Patrick King has already expressed interest in adapting the book for the big screen – and he wants Blake Lively to play the young Carrie.
“There are no plans to bring SJP and the other girls back together in the old format,” says an insider. “The prequel is about breathing new life into the story and exploring Carrie’s first few months in NYC and the beginning of her relationship with an older man.”
What do you think about Blake playing Carrie? Love it or hate it?
Wonder what SJP will have to say about this!
“I don’t know the future; I would say that you never know what will happen with that particular franchise. It’s less about the reviewers than it is about the audience, and they’ve been pretty true, so we tend to listen to them more than anybody else,” Sarah Jessica Parker recently told NY Mag.
Even though critics hat the SATC movies, the last installment brought in $288 million. Not bad!
Here’s Sarah walking her son James to school this morning.

Sex And The City 2 has not gotten the best review from critics. However Sarah Jessica Parker is hopeful for a 3rd movie installment of the once HBO series.
“I hope Carrie will live on,” Parker told UsMagazine.com at the sequel’s Tokyo, Japan premiere on Tuesday. “She will live on — even if the movies don’t.”
“I feel blessed that we’ve told so many stories about these lovely characters.”
I agree. I would love to see more of these ladies and their escapades. Hopefully the next one will be a little better than this last one was though.
What do you think? Do you want more Sex And The City?
