Sarah Jessica Parker has joined the cast of ‘New Year’s Eve’.
The 45-year-old actress – best known for her turn as writer and fashion icon Carrie Bradshaw in six television series and two movies of ‘Sex and the City’ – will star alongside big names including Robert De Niro, Hilary Swank, Ashton Kutcher and Michelle Pfeiffer in the film, a sequel to 2010 hit ‘Valentine’s Day’.
Halle Berry and Zac Efron are also in negotiations for roles, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Sarah will play the mother of Abigail Breslin’s character, and will learn throughout the film she relies too heavily on her young daughter for company.
The Gerry Marshall-directed ensemble comedy was originally expected to shoot in mid-December but production has now been pushed back to February 2011.
Mike Karz and Wayne Rice will produce the film.

Sarah will next appear in ‘I Don’t Know How She Does It’ and is rumoured for a role in 2013 movie ‘The Ivy Chronicles’, based on a book by Karen Quinn about a woman who loses her husband, job and apartment.

Starting Friday, Dec. 17, several celebrities – including Sarah Jessica Parker’s — are putting the coats off their back on the auction block for a good cause. The auction, running through December 27 on eBay, is part of The Glad Products Company’s Celebrity Coat Auction with all proceeds benefitting One Warm Coat, a nonprofit that provides free coats and cold-weather accessories to families in need.

With 20 percent of U.S. children living in poverty, one in 10 parents has had to borrow or receive a donated winter coat for their child. Now Glad is encouraging consumers to help get warm coats to those in need by bidding on Glad ForceFlex bags filled with celebrity duds.

Would you like to receive an image of Brooke’s coat? We also have coats from Rachel Zoe, Justin Timberlake, Fergie, and many more! Your readers can go here to bid on coats and dress like a celebrity all for a great cause.

Now through May 30, 2011, Glad is offering free trash bags through The Bag Bank to help consumers tackle their own community service projects – such as coat drives and community clean-up events.

thanks Kit for these informations.

Exclusive: Sarah Jessica Parker‘s next feature film is shaping up nicely.

SJP starts shooting “I Don’t Know How She Does It” in mid January, with Douglas McGrath directing. McGrath is the congenial man behind the “other” Truman Capote movie, called “Infamous” (well worth renting), “Nicholas Nickelby,” and “Emma” with Gwyneth Paltrow.

Now I’m told that Pierce Brosnan has signed on to the Weinstein Company feature as SJP’s love interest. Also being made an offer this week–and likely to accept–Kelsey Grammer. Kelsey is wrapping up a long run on Broadway in “La Cage Aux Folles,” and ready for a new challenge. I’m told that TWC’s Donna Gigliotti ran into him in the last few days and literally told him he was coming to work. She wants him!

For Parker, this film will set the tone for her post- “Sex and the City” career. Her past tries–”Family Stone,” “Failure to Launch”– fell a little short, But there’s no reason why she’s not a movie star of smart romantic comedies.
