Sex and the City London Premiere Outrage
April 29th, 2008
The makers of the new ‘Sex and the City’ movie have come under fire from New Yorkers, after it was revealed that the film will not have it’s big screen debut in the city that features as a "fifth character" – and will instead premiere in weeks earlier in the UK.
New Line Cinema have announced that the flick is going to premiere in London on May 12, two weeks ahead of the planned New York screening – sparking widespread criticism from those who believe the film should premiere in the city that the tv series profiled and celebrated for six years.
A spokesperson for the film company addressed the issue, telling the New York Daily News that the London screeening "will be much smaller. The whole cast isn’t even going".
"It was simply a question of logistics and scheduling. We’re still planning the big premiere to be in New York," the rep said.
"Everyone knows New York City is the fifth character. The city is the epicenter of all things ‘Sex and the City.’
New York will have its premiere on May 27 at the legendary Radio City Music Hall.

Sending a small cast to London isn’t going to do it for the locals. What about being the first to see something? Doesn’t that count for something?
