Jennifer Hudson thinks Sex And The City fans are ready to reunite with Louise from St. Louis.
The singer and actor told Entertainment Tonight that she was “down” to reprise her role from the first SATC film for the upcoming revival of the franchise’s beloved series. The new series will be titled And Just Like That.
Jennifer portrayed Carrie Bradshaw’s (Sarah Jessica Parker) personal assistant in the 2008 film, memorably introducing herself to Carrie as “Louise from St. Louis.”
When asked about the revival on ET, the Oscar winner said she hopes to play Louise again.
“That would be cool. ... I’m down,” she said. Jennifer later suggested that she had not yet been asked to reprise her role as Louise.
“You heard something?” she asked host Kevin Frazier with a smile. (See the entire clip below.)
News of the Sex And The City revival has been bittersweet for many fans. Kim Cattrall, who famously played Samantha Jones, won’t be reprising her role.
Cynthia Nixon, who played Miranda, and Kristin Davis, who played Charlotte, will join SJP in the new series.
Meanwhile, Jennifer has been keeping busy with projects for the big screen.
The singer played the late Aretha Franklin in the upcoming biopic Respect. The movie is set for release in August, after its release was delayed as cinemas closed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
