Sex and the City 2: Interview with director Michael Patrick King

Michael Patrick King is the director of "Sex and the City 2," the sequel to the popular TV show adaptation. The film, which stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis, and Cynthia Nixon, is being released May 27 by Warner Bros.

"When the first movie opened," recalls writer/producer/director Michael Patrick King, "I would see lines of women at the theaters all dressed up as if they were going to a party, not just a movie. It felt to me like they were excited to celebrate this special time with their girlfriends–both the ones in the seats and on the screen. So when I thought about the sequel, I knew I wanted it to be the continuation of the party. I wanted the movie to be the party."

 

 

 

 

Sex and the City 2: Interview with star Sarah Jessica Parker

Sarah Jessica Parker stars as Carrie in "Sex and the City 2," the sequel to the popular TV show adaptation. The film, which also stars Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis, and Cynthia Nixon, is being released May 27 by Warner Bros.

"I think what was most interesting to me about the 'Sex and the City 2' shoot was getting away with everyone," Parker says. "We were all removed from the most important people in our lives, our families, and that was very difficult, but I think it also helped us grow even closer than ever–and we've all been pretty close going on 12 years now. It was probably the best time we ever had as a group, and it was so great to have that experience."
