Rumors hit recently that a Sex and the City prequel may be in the works. But even if that rumor is becoming more and more confirmed lately, who could ever fill the younger Manolo Blahnik shoes of Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha, or Miranda?
Rumors have also swirled that Blake Lively could play the role of a younger Carrie Bradshaw. But we may also now have a candidate for Charlotte York, the character made famous by Kristin Davis.
Per The Daily Caller, Candace Bushnell, the author of SATC, would love to have Selena Gomez take the role. “You know, I don’t know…Casting is like kismet. I’m going to get into trouble for this, but I was looking at some pictures of Selena Gomez today and thinking ‘she’d make a really good young Charlotte.'” Bushnell continued, “She’s so pretty. I was like…gosh, wouldn’t she be great? Am I right or wrong? I’m not good at this. If I say something like that, then the next thing I know, people are like, no!”
Back to the rumor of whether there will be a prequel at all, Candace also told The Daily Caller that she could see either of her two Sex and the City prequels, The Carrie Diaries or Summer and the City, being turned into a movie. “Definitely something on the screen,” Candace said. “Big or small screen.”
What do you think of the Gomez-Davis match up? I think it could work–the two do have a bit of a resemblance already even before movie makeup imposes its magical transformation.
I can totally see the resemblance. I am just not sure I want to see a prequel. I have not read the books though, so, maybe its a good story? ANyone know?
