The New Line Cinema feature, "Sex and the City: The Movie," is scheduled to be released May 30, 2008, according to an announcement.

Also slated to appear are their beaus from the series finale: Chris Noth (Gore Vidal's The Best Man), David Eigenberg (Take Me Out), Evan Handler (Six Degrees of Separation) and Jason Lewis. Academy Award winner Jennifer Hudson ("Dreamgirls") joins the cast in the role of assistant to Carrie Bradshaw (Parker).
Created by Darren Star, "Sex and the City" was based on the book by Candace Bushnell. The series — shot in New York City — provided many guest turns for stage stars.
