Grab your Louis Vuitton bag and Manolo Blahnik shoes, it’s time to hit the streets of New York again with Carrie, Samantha, Miranda, and Charlotte. They’re back! This time where they belong, on the big screen. For 6 seasons HBO brought to life Candace Bushnell's provocative bestselling book, Sex and the City turning the show into a trend setting phenomenon, recognized the world over! Sarah Jessica Parker stars as Carrie Bradshaw, a self-described "sexual anthropologist," who writes Sex and the City, a newspaper column that chronicles the state of sexual affairs of fellow New Yorkers, in this uber-age of un-innocence. Carrie’s sintilating and oh-so-chic column ideas are often inspired by her three best girlfriends, nice girl Charlotte (Kristin Davis), hard-edged Miranda (Cynthia Nixon), and party girl Samantha (Kim Cattrall), not to mention Carrie’s own turbulent love life in the Big Apple.

Continuing where the acclaimed, Emmy® and Golden Globe® award-winning HBO series left off, this highly anticipated film adaptation opens with the girls all entering new stages in their lives. Carrie is with Mr. Big (Chris Noth), living and writing in Manhattan. Miranda is married to Steve (David Eigenberg), still working as a lawyer and raising their five year old son in Brooklyn. Charlotte is married to Harry (Evan Handler), and raising their newly adopted Chinese baby. Samantha has taken her publicist talents to Los Angeles, where her boyfriend Smith Jerrod (Jason Lewis) has become a movie star.
