Sarah Jessica Parker has said that with new film technology, she could play Carrie Bradshaw in a possible Sex And The City prequel.

The actress has insisted that special effects could make it possible to play the journalist as a teenager, as depicted in creator Candace Bushnell's latest book The Carrie Diaries.

The 45-year-old told E! Online: "Who do I want to play teenage Carrie? I don't know. Maybe they should use old footage of me. And in this new age of Avatar, what about a new 17-year-old S.J.?"

Parker, who starred as Patty Greene in the US TV series Square Pegs in the early '80s, has suggested that her character was a believable portrayal of the young Carrie.

She added: "That might have been Carrie in high school."

In 2008, creator Bushnell suggested that Miley Cyrus play the role of a young Bradshaw in a film adaptation of her prequel series.
