Sarah Jessica Parker is deeply in love with New York City. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the “Sex and the City” star is in talks to topline “The Ivy Chronicles,” another comedy set in the Big Apple.Based on the novel by Karen Quinn, the film centers on Ivy Ames, a wealthy Upper East Side mother who relocates into a cheapo downtown apartment after losing her dream job and getting a divorce.
In a quest for money to feed her children, Ivy opens a business to help upper-middle-class mothers get their kids into New York’s best kindergartens.
Warner Bros. will develop and distribute the project, which does indeed sound like a crossing between “The Devil Wears Prada” and “The Nanny Diaries.”
Besides the big-screen adaptations of “Sex and the City,” Parker recently starred alongside Dennis Quaid and Ellen Page in “Smart People.”
