It’s time spread the news (amongst other things) wide with the announcement that iconic comedy series “Sex and the City” is being revived as a limited series for the HBO Max streaming service.
Parker posted the first trailer for the revival on social media today along with hashtage phrases like “And Just Like That” and “SATC: The Next Chapter” so it’s not entirely clear what the title is if one has been selected at all.
Original series stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis are all back and will produce, though Kim Cattrall is not returning.
The revival will follow Carrie Bradshaw (Parker), Charlotte York (Davis) and Miranda Hobbes (Nixon) as they navigate love and friendship in their fifties.
Ten half-hour episodes are set to begin production in New York City in late spring with Michael Patrick King returning as executive producer. The original series premiered on HBO in 1998 and ran for six seasons until 2004 ahead of two films in 2008 and 2010.
This is one of several planned HBO Max revivals in the works, “True Blood” and “Gossip Girl” will also be receiving some shortly.
