Sex and the city

The first Sex And The City Movie may have been a box office win back in 2008 but SEX AND THE CITY 2 couldn’t come close. So far, since the sequel opened this past weekend, it’s only banked $57 Million domestically, which is not an impressive number. But New Line-WB execs think the franchise is still worthy of another installment.. a prequel..

how bout Carrie Bradshaw in her teen years. That’s right. Eonline said there’s been talks of adapting THE CARRIE DIARIES, the latest work by author Candance Bushnell, which chronicles Carrie’s high school years in Connecticut.
I don’t know if I wanna read the book but I’m bettin’ this origin story includes Carrie’s first date, Carrie’s first fashion encounter, and the first time she loses her virginity… but it will definitely lead to Carrie’s first summer in New York City.
The studio is more interested in turning this into a movie instead of developing it as a TV series.
Since the focus is on Carrie, more than likely the rest of the girls won’t show up, so there will be no need to cast actresses to play Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte,.. which is a shame cause my favorite has always been Charlotte.
Bushnell, as a matter of fact, has already started working on the sequel book to THE CARRIE DIARIES..so this teen Carrie movie could be the start of its own new franchise.
A while back, Bushnell thought Miley Cyrus would be perfect as young Carrie and Cyrus herself told BBC once that she would ‘totally’ do the gig but.. by the time this project gets greenlit, Miley might already be a bit too old for the role.
What do you say? Who should play teen Carrie?
Dakota Fanning? AnnaSophia Robb? Saoirse Ronan?
