Sex and The City is up there with Friends, Gossip Girl and Keeping Up With The Kardashians as one of our fave programs of all time and go-to hangover box sets.

As well as the epic original series, which sparked our obsession with Cosmopolitan cocktails and moving to New York with our bffs, there are also two SATC films.

The first, released in 2008, focused on Carrie Bradshaw’s disastrous wedding to the love of her life Big and was glam af and all round fabulous.

The second went a bit rogue and saw the girls head off to Abu Dhabi, Aiden came back out the blue and it was all very odd. But we were still pretty excited to hear a third movie was apparently in the works.

Now, unfortunately, it looks as though it’s not going to happen.

The film was due to begin production later this year, but has reportedly been cut by movie bosses.

"It's over. We're not doing it. I'm disappointed. We had this beautiful, funny, heartbreaking, joyful, very relatable script and story,” actress Sarah Jessica Parker revealed to Extra.

"It's not just disappointing that we don't get to tell the story and have that experience, but more so for that audience that has been so vocal in wanting another movie," she added.

While SJP is pretty devo the gang won’t be getting together anytime soon, her co-star Kim Cattrall previously hinted she felt the timing wasn’t right for a third film.

Speaking to the Daily Record, Kim said: "I think the climate changed.

“To have four women talking about shopping trips and spending $400 on shoes when people are having trouble putting food on the table? It doesn't mean we don't need that, but I think the pendulum swung in a different direction."

It's been reported that a fallout between Kim and the studio is the reason the film isn't happening.

However, Kim to to Twitter this morning to shut down these rumours.

She wrote: "Woke up to a s***storm. The only 'DEMAND' I ever made was that I didn't want to do a 3rd film... and that was back in 2016."

Although, at the time, she did let on another movie ‘would be fun’ and revealed she’s not quite ready to "completely say goodbye" to her character Samantha for good.
