Sarah Jessica Parker: 'Jennifer Hudson Was Just What SATC Needed'

Find out why here...

Tuesday 20th May 2008

Sarah Jessica Parker has praised her Sex And The City co-star Jennifer Hudson for bringing new young and black audiences to the much acclaimed franchise.

Oscar winning Hudson plays Carrie’s assistant in the big-screen adaptation of the TV show, and Parker believes the decision of director Michael Patrick King to bring in a youthful African-American was a genius idea.

She explains: "First of all we needed to have a 20-year-old in this movie; we really have to remember that there is a significant audience now that are very, very young.

"It's a great way of reminding people who Carrie was when she came to New York; what was New York, what did it mean to her...And African-American women and women of colour have been a big part of our audience for a long time (and) we really haven't been responsible to them."

And Parker couldn't imagine a better onscreen assistant for her Bradshaw: "She is especially lovely in this movie... She is remarkably beautiful and she's probably about eight inches taller than I am and she is a presence."
