Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda take another bite out of the Big Apple in the sequel to the 2008 blockbuster. Returning in their starring roles as the four great friends are Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon. Of course, where would these women be without their men? Also back for the much-anticipated sequel are Chris Noth as Mr. Big, David Eigenberg as Steve, Evan Handler as Harry, Jason Lewis as Smith, Mario Cantone as Anthony and Willie Garson as Stanford Blatch. Michael Patrick King returns again at the helm but, perhaps more importantly, so does costume designer Patricia Field.

We all knew this day was coming. The day when Carrie and her cosmopolitan crew would rise again to stroll the streets of Manhattan. And now we have a video to prove it. Yes, the trailer for Sex and the City 2 is now online, showcasing Sarah Jessica Parker in full shiny glory (check out those sequins in the title!)

There's not much plot in the trailer - just lots of dresses and handbags. All we know is it's two years later and things have happened in that time period (sadly not a nuclear holocaust or robot overlord takeover - now that would be a new direction for the franchise). But this is hardly the point. The point is that they're back, they're going to the desert for some reason, and they're all wearing shoes.

Cue the screaming hordes of fans storming the cinemas once more. Not that I can comment really; I was one of them. Hopefully this one won't be as long. Head over to the official site for the sparkly new trailer. Or read on for the retina-melting poster.
