In her new NBC limited series, “The Thing About Pam,” Renee Zellweger wears prosthetics and padding to appear heavier in the role of a convicted killer. It's a decision that some critics have questioned, arguing a larger actor could have filled the role.
Zellweger famously gained weight twice for “Bridget Jones's Diary” in 2001 and “Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason” in 2004. The character had settled into her goal weight (or Zellweger's natural size) for “Bridget Jones's Baby” in 2016.
