Get your favorite cocktail ready, slip into those fabulous stilettos, and don a dress that channels your inner ballerina—because a follow-up to Sex and the City is making its way to television, and I couldn’t be more excited! Life just got a whole lot better, especially for fans of Team Aidan.
Here’s the Scoop
Candace Bushnell, the original author of Sex and the City, has a fresh book titled Is There Still Sex in the City? set to launch in August, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. The book delves into themes of dating, friendship, and intimacy for women over 50, and Paramount Television has already acquired the rights. This means a new series inspired by Bushnell’s work is likely on the horizon.
While it appears that the beloved characters Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda, and Samantha won’t be part of this new project, it doesn’t mean it won’t be an exciting ride. Bushnell emphasized her intention to highlight the diverse lifestyles of women in their fifties.
“Fifty-something used to be synonymous with retirement and a slower pace of life,” she explained. “Today, many women in their fifties and sixties are redefining what this stage of life looks like, with new ventures, fitness, casual dating, and fresh starts. I’m eager to portray the rich, complex realities of their lives both on the page and now on screen.”
Industry Excitement
Nicole Harper, the president of Paramount TV, expressed her enthusiasm about representing this often overlooked demographic. “The original Sex and the City was a groundbreaking narrative for a generation of women, myself included,” she stated. “We are thrilled to continue this dialogue from the perspective of women in their fifties and affirm, ‘Yes! There is more sex in the city!’”
This announcement is particularly exciting since it appears we may never see a Sex and the City 3 (for the full backstory on that drama, check it out here). So let’s toast to a new wave of Bushnell-inspired characters. And if Aidan wants to pop in for a cameo, that would be a delightful bonus!
