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."

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.

Mike Mitchell is the director of "Shrek Forever After," starring Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, and Eddie Murphy. The film is being released in 3-D and IMAX by Dreamworks Animation on May 21, 2010.

Mitchell, a veteran of both live-action films and previous DreamWorks Animation films asks: "How do we give the audience what they know and love, but at the same time give it a fresh take, make it more beautiful?" A challenging task for any director, Mitchell continues, "We've taken on the bittersweet challenge of wrapping up the story of Shrek. We know fans would want to see how it ends."

Mike Newell is the director of "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time," starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Arterton. The film, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, is being released by Disney on May 28. 

Newell says of the story, “I love the idea of it being a living myth that you are watching. This is a story that’s absolutely real and extraordinary—a non-rational, non-physical universe as we now understand it. These things happen in this film.”

On June 6, 1982, at 6:15 AM, I killed a man for the first time in my life. I was 20 years old. I did not do so by choice, nor was I ordered to do so. I reacted in self-defense, with no emotional or intellectual motivation, only the basic survival instinct that takes no human factors into account, an instinct which forces itself on a person facing a tangible threat of death–Writer Director Samuel Maoz
