Yesterday, Warner Bros TV released the first Image of the young Samantha Jones, to be played by Lindsey Gort in the upcoming sophomore season of The CW's THE CARRIE DIARIES.
Following the reveal, actress Kim Cattrall, who originated the steamy role on Sex & The City, took to Twitter to show her approval and lend a bit of advice to her younger counterpart:
"@LindseyGort So happy u're playing Fearless Sam! The key 2 her is her heart. She never judges those she loves. Have a blast! Kimx."
Gort quickly responded to the kind words of encouragement, tweeting back:
"@KimCattrall thank you so much! what fabulous, amazingly sexy shoes to fill xoxo"
The Carrie Diaries takes place in 1984, where life is not easy for 16-year-old Carrie Bradshaw. Since their mother passed away, Carrie's younger sister Dorritt is more rebellious than ever, and their father Tom is overwhelmed with the responsibility of suddenly having to care for two teenage girls on his own. Carrie's friends - sweet, geeky Mouse, sarcastic and self-assured Maggie and sensitive Walt - make life bearable, but a suburban life in Connecticut isn't doing much to take her mind off her troubles. And even though the arrival of a sexy new transfer student named Sebastian brings some excitement to Carrie's world, she is struggling to move on from her grief. So when Tom offers Carrie the chance to intern at a law firm in Manhattan, she leaps at the chance.
Carrie's eyes are opened wide at the glamour and grit of New York City - and when she meets Larissa, the style editor for Interview magazine, she's inspired by the club culture and unique individuals that make up Larissa's world. Carrie's friends and family may have a big place in her heart, but she's fallen in love for the first time with the most important man in her life - Manhattan.
The series stars AnnaSophia Robb ("Soul Surfer") as Carrie Bradshaw; Stefania Owen ("Running Wilde," "The Lovely Bones") as Dorrit Bradshaw; Ellen Wong ("Scott Pilgrim vs. the World," "Combat Hospital") as Mouse; Katie Findlay ("The Killing," "SGU Stargate Universe") as Maggie; Chloe Bridges ("90210") as Donna; Austin Butler ("Switched at Birth," "Life Unexpected") as Sebastian; Brendan Dooling ("An Elf's Story: The Elf on the Shelf") as Walt; Freema Agyeman ("Doctor Who," "Law & Order: UK") as Larissa and Matt Letscher ("Brothers and Sisters," "Entourage") as Tom.
