Sex And The City's King Confirms Sequel Deal
6 February 2009 8:05 AM, PST
Sex And The City writer/director Michael Patrick King has delighted millions of fans worldwide by confirming a movie sequel to the 2008 hit is in the works. Reports surfaced earlier this week claiming the four leading ladies - Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis - had officially signed on to make a follow up to the big-screen adaptation last year following months of speculation.
And now King has expressed his delight at reteaming with the stars once again - but he's refusing to reveal any ideas he has for the new movie script.
He says, "I'm very excited to work with these amazing actresses again and would love to give everyone more information about the sequel... but I'm busy with my Sex life."

This just in! Thank you Stephen King!
Horror writer Stephen King has served up a fright for Twilight author Stephenie Meyers, insisting she "can't write worth a darn". King, the writer of classics like Carrie and Misery, has gone public with his critique of in-vogue Utah-based novelist Meyers in the upcoming issue of USA Weekend magazine.
He starts by complimenting J.K. Rowling on her Harry Potter books, and then slates Meyer.
He says, "Both Rowling and Meyer, they’re speaking directly to young people... The real difference is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer can’t write worth a darn. She’s not very good.
"It’s very clear that she’s writing to a whole generation of girls and opening up kind of a safe joining of love and sex in those books. It’s exciting and it’s thrilling and it’s not particularly threatening because it’s not overtly sexual.
"A lot of the physical side of it is conveyed in things like the vampire will touch her forearm or run a hand over skin, and she just flushes all hot and cold. And for girls, that’s a shorthand for all the feelings that they’re not ready to deal with yet."
