"Sex" and the Movies?
Don't drain those Cosmos just yet, Sex and the City fans. The affair ain't over.
On the eve of this Sunday's series' finale, Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kim Cattrall, and Kristin Davis are in talks with HBO to reprise their roles for a big-screen fling that will continue the adventures of Carrie Bradshaw & Co., the cable network says.
So much for saying goodbye.
HBO confirms that its movie-production arm is "exploring the possibility of a film."
Michael Patrick King, the style-making show's Emmy-winning executive producer, main scribe and director, is currently at work writing the script.
It's expected that HBO will set a start date for production once a deal is reached with the quartet and King finishes the screenplay, due in May.
No word on the movie's storyline, or whether it will feature Mr. Big (Chris Noth), or the other men in the gals' lives--Smith Jared (Jason Lewis), Steve Brady (David Eigenberg) or Harry Goldenblatt (Evan Handler).
When last we left Sex, the first of the two-part finale that aired last Sunday, Carrie jetted off to Paris to live a fairytale existence with Alexsandr Petrovsky (Mikhail Baryshnikov). But the Big question remained: Will she stay with the Russian artist or will she go back to Big, who seems to have finally grown up after six seasons? Or will Carrie end up back in New York with the girls, finally comfortable in singledom?
According to published reports, three different endings have been filmed for this weekend's swan-song episode.
Of course, Hollywood's had a thing for movies based on hit TV shows, but this would be the first time in recent memory that a hit show has segued to celluloid immediately after its small-screen run.
The X-Files movie bridged two seasons of the Fox series, and there has been talk of another feature film foray for the sci-fi franchise, but nothing's been finalized. Last week, 20th Century Fox confirmed it was working on a theatrical version of The Simpsons, which is now in its 13th season and still going strong.
Usually TV-based films play up on the nostalgia factor and come long after the series has been sent to rerun land--notable examples include Charlie's Angels, The Brady Brunch, The Fugitive, Star Trek and Warner Bros.' upcoming Starsky & Hutch.
In its six-year history, Sex and the City has won five Emmys, eight Golden Globes and two Screen Actors Guild Awards.
If all goes well, Sex-aholics will get their feature film fix most likely by 2005.
Until then, fans can content themselves with seasons one through five on DVD and slightly tamer syndicated versions of the show airing on TBS beginning in June and on Tribune Broadcasting, which owns 26 U.S. TV stations, and cable superstation WGN starting in September 2005.
