Kristin Davis tired of family films

Kristin Davis was thrilled that the Sex And The City movie got made because she was bored with appearing in family films.

Following the end of the HBO show in 2004, Davis took roles in films such as Deck The Halls, Shaggy Dog and The Adventures Of Sharkboy And Lavagirl 3-D but found the experience frustrating.

Speaking to Now, Davis said: "They [were] mom roles. There's not a huge amount of choice for women my age, so it's not that easy. I had whole scenes in Deck The Halls where I had no lines. I had whole days on Shaggy Dog where my only line was: 'Shaggy?'

"I'd email my manager saying: 'You have to come over here. I'm losing my mind.'

"So when we came back to do this movie, I was like: 'Thank God, something to do!'"
