I know I know I know. Here we are talking about all this Transformers and Wolverine and Clash of the Titans stuff… when deep down what you’ve really been dying to know about is “John… what’s that status on the Sex and the City sequel?!?!?!”
Well good news SATC fans. They’ve just moved one step closer to getting the film going. Mr. Big, Chris Noth, has officially signed on to appear in the next film.
The good folks over at Variety give us this:
In a seven-figure deal, Chris Noth has committed to “Sex and the City 2,” the sequel to be directed by Michael Patrick King for New Line Cinema. The pic shoots in early September, and Warner Bros. has set a May 28, 2010, release date. The original grossed $412.6 million worldwide.
Look, I admit it… I didn’t think the first Sex and the City movie was all that bad… it was WAY too long, but overall it was pretty decent, and even though I’d never seen a single episode of the show, I had no problem understanding what was going on.
This is going to one of those movies where people will say “it doesn’t need a sequel”, but they don’t understand the women who love Sex and the City don’t watch it for the story… they watch if for the characters. And sooooo… they’ll be back to watch again.
