Sarah Jessica Parker (Sex and the City) is in talks with Warner Bros. to star in The Ivy Chronicles, a story of class and the single woman in contemporary New York.
The Hollywood Reporter says the story centers on 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 pulling her children from private school, Ames starts a business to help upper-middle-class women get their children into elite kindergartens.
Jerry Weintraub will produce the project, based on Karen Quinn’s eponymous novel.
