According to /Film, Sex and the City 3 may not be another sequel, but instead a prequel to the series based on Candace Bushnell‘s 2010 prequel The Carrie Diaries, which focuses on Carrie Bradshaw’s high school days in the early ’80s.
Though the project is still in the very early stages, director Michael Patrick King already has his eye on one of New York City’s other iconic actresses – Gossip Girl star Blake Lively.
According to an insider, “There are no plans to bring SJP and the other girls back together in the old format. 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.”
Though King may be interested in Blake for the role, that doesn’t mean she’s into it too. According to her rep, “She isn’t involved on this project.”
What do you think of Blake Lively stepping into Carrie Bradshaw’s shoes?
