Sarah Jessica Parker on 'Carrie Diaries': It's oddWhen it comes to The CW's "The Carrie Diaries," it sounds like we should consider Sarah Jessica Parker unimpressed. The 47-year-old actress, who played the original Carrie Bradshaw on HBO's "Sex and the City" for six seasons (and two movies), told fashion and shopping website Net-a-Porter.com that she's not particularly loving The CW's new "SATC" prequel series. Why Sarah Jessica Parker won't be in 'Lovelace'Sarah Jessica Parker stepped in at the last minute to play Gloria Steinem in "Lovelace," but her work didn't make it into the film. According to Entertainment Weekly, directors Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman were originally planning to end their biopic of adult actress Linda Lovelace in 1984, which would've included scenes of Lovelace after she'd gone back to using her real name and had taken a stand against porn, becoming affiliated with Steinem. SJP encourages young Carrie Bradshaw“Sex and the City” producer Michael Patrick King isn’t enthralled by the idea of a prequel to the HBO series, but it seems Carrie Bradshaw herself is ready to pass on the torch. Sarah Jessica Parker, who played the Manhattanite for six seasons (and two films), recently reached out to AnnaSophia Robb, who plays a teenaged Bradshaw on The CW’s “The Carrie Diaries.” “She sent me a letter! I wrote her one back, too,” Robb told Us Weekly. “She was just very encouraging about it all. It was really cool.” Sarah Jessica Parker: Kids can distract from marriageAccording to Sarah Jessica Parker, "kids can really distract you from your relationship," as the 46-year-old mom of three told U.K. paper the Telegraph. The actress is raising son James Wilkie, 8, and twins Tabitha and Loretta, 2, with husband Matthew Broderick. She adds, "Maybe in good ways and bad ways. It's important to have all eyes on all parts of the relationship." She and Broderick, who've been together for 20 years, have had the same relationship bumps as everyone else: "You have good days, you have decent days, and you have bad days. That's a marriage. That's a relationship. That's a friendship, even - relationships outside the marriage run the same course." Sarah Jessica Parker claims to drive a minivanDon't look for glam movie star Sarah Jessica Parker to pull up next to you in a Rolls-Royce - the actress insists she cruises around in a minivan. SJP told fellow minivan mom Katie Couric about her ride on “Nightline” Tuesday, reports Jezebel.com. "Respect the van," Parker proclaimed. 'SATC 3' not in the works, not out of the questionDespite admitting to the “potential” for a third “Sex and the City” movie, Sarah Jessica Parker says nothing is officially in the works. “In all candor I will say that there are no plans thus far for a ‘Sex and the City 3’ movie or to my knowledge a prequel,” SJP tells CNN. However, the actress is quick to add that a third film is not out of the question. She says that just because it’s not happening in the near future, “that doesn’t mean that down the road that it might be considered.” |
