With only 11 weeks to go before the eagerly-awaited Sex And The City 2 movie, fans have been given a sneak peek of what to expect,

The upcoming sequel is set two years after we last saw Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) and her friends and brings the girls out of their beloved New York on a trip of Morocco.

Little has been given away about the plotline, but the film will definitely include a wedding and perhaps a baby for an unlikely mother.

Apparently happily married to husband Mr Big (Chris Noth), it is not known why Carrie decides to abandon him for a girlie trip to Marrakech with Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall), Charlotte York Goldenblatt (Kristin Davis) and Miranda Hobbs (Cynthia Nixon).

For their exotic trip to North Africa, the foursome are seen enjoying walking through the dunes of the Sahara Desert, lunching under the shade of a Bedouin tent and partying alongside belly dancers in a local nightclub.

In these new photos from the film, Charlotte appears to be revelling in being a housewife as she carries two-year-old daughter Rose - who was born in the climax of the first film - while baking cupcakes.

Despite turning 50 in the last film, it appears age hasn't diminished Samantha's love of tight-fitting clothes as she is seen dashing across a busy Manhattan street in a revealing little black dress.
