Sarah Jessica Parker playing a wealthy, fabulous Manhattanite?! No way! I know it's a huge stretch, but it looks like SJP may go back to filming in her beloved city for The Ivy Chronicles [1]. Based on a novel by Karen Quinn [2], the project is said to be in the vein of other New York-set novels-turned-movies, like The Devil Wears Prada and The Nanny Diaries.

The story follows "Ivy Ames, an Upper East Side woman who, after losing her high-powered job and getting divorced, starts over again in a less ritzy downtown apartment." After all this, Ivy turns her attention to helping children. Aww! Oh, but wait — lest we get all Sally Struthers here, Ivy "starts a business to help upper-middle-class women get their children into elite kindergartens."

What do you think of SJP in this role? Have you read The Ivy Chronicles? Do you think you will now?
