Marini 'eager to reprise 'SATC' role'

Sex And The City: The Movie star Gilles Marini has admitted that he would love to reprise his role in the upcoming sequel to the hit film.

The French actor, who played Samantha Jones's (Kim Cattrall) neighbour Dante, told OK! that he wanted the opportunity to explore the character's personality more.

"There's a lot of talks. I’m not sure what’s going on yet. Only [writer/director] Michael Patrick King will tell me the future in a phone call - 'What about this?' And whatever he says, I will say, 'What about yes!'", he explained.

"I owe the movie a lot and I know there’s much more to the character to show to the people and we saw one side. We’ll see another and whatever he writes, if I am or not, I’m super proud to have been working with him."

Marini, who is currently appearing in ABC's Dancing With The Stars, added that he had been practicising his English and would have no problem getting to grips with more dialogue.

"Lines will come naturally. For example, I did Nip/Tuck with Vanessa Redgrave recently. Playing opposite her was brilliant and yes, there was a lot of lines there. It was emotional and difficult. So, yes, lines are here and offers are here. I just have to show my performing side. I’m ready."
