A More Mindful Kinda Sex

Sex and the City star/producer Sarah Jessica Parker says the recently confirmed sequel to last year’s summer blockbuster will be more in tune with the current economic climate.

“How do we do that well? And how do we do that in a not lazy way?” Parker cannot help but wonder. “How do we address these economic times in a franchise that has a lot to do with luxury and labels?”

Parker adds that there is a lot that the SATC team has to think about because times are very different now that when they made the first movie.

“These are nice challenges, these are good challenges,” she said. So perhaps Carrie Bradshaw will not be strutting up and down Manhattan in $600 Manolos – but she still will look fabulous.

As to what we should expect of the sequel, Parker says “I think we want this one to be a romp. The last one, we got to tell a really mature sophisticated story that had real heartbreak in it, and this time, I think we want our audience to have a massive romp.”

The Sex and the City sequel is expected to arrive in theaters next year.
