Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy—the fourth installment of the British-based romantic film comedy series—is heading to the big screens, and, as The Hollywood Reporter put it, “after months of quiet chess pieces moves,” the talent is put together for the film.
What is a Bridget Jones film without Bridget Jones herself? Yes, the star of the show, Renee Zellweger, is set to return, alongside Hugh Grant as Daniel Cleaver. The star-studded cast will also include Emma Thompson (who appeared in 2016’s Bridget Jones’s Baby), as well as franchise newcomers Chiwetel Ejiofor and Leo Woodall, who stole hearts in White Lotus’ second season and One Day. Helen Fielding—who wrote the bestselling novels about the character—wrote the script for the forthcoming film.
