Sex and the City - Retooled


Since so many movies from the '80s are getting redone, I felt it was time for Sex and the City to get a make over before the sequel comes out. Here is what I am planning to pitch to the guys at HBO:

Carrie - Replace Sarah Jessica Parker with a twenty something year old mentally challenged girl who has to wear a helmet because of epilepsy. She will still have a love for shoes, but in this case the shoes will have braces attached.
Samantha - Replace Kim Cattrall with a guy in drag who hasn't told the group his big secret.
Charlotte - Let's keep Kristin Davis in this role. We want people to feel a connection to the original story.
Miranda - I am saying replace Cynthia Nixon with a woman in a wheel chair who uses a blow tube to get around.
Mr. Big - Also going to keep the original guy here. It's all about continuity.

Can you imagine the conversations during one of their Sunday Brunches. I am just picturing Charlotte saying all she wants is to get pregnant while Samantha tells her to go on the pill like her. Meanwhile, Carrie is shaking at the table and Miranda is telling everyone she needs to be changed.
