‘Sex And The City’ movie will ‘shock’ fans

Sarah Jessica Parker has predicted that Sex And The City fans will be surprised by the upcoming movie. The actress, who plays writer Carrie Bradshaw, said the big-screen adaptation is more serious and complex than the hit TV show. She said: “A handful of people have seen it and have been very surprised by the seriousness. There’s something that happens in this movie and it’s really about realising your own complicity and disappointment. “You know the necessity of friends, but at a certain point, as a grown-up person, you have to take care of yourself.” She added: “There’s still plenty of ripe old salty dirty stuff. But I think it’s a really smart story and I think Michael Patrick wrote a beautiful screenplay.” She also hinted that the movie may premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in May, saying: “I think we are all still figuring out what we want in terms of the movie. You know, whether it’s at Cannes two weeks before it opens domestically.” The film is scheduled for release on May 30.
