Two-time Academy Award-winning actress Renee Zellweger (Jerry Maguire, Judy) will return to play a franchise role in the upcoming sequel, Bridget Jones: crazy about the guywhich started in the 2001 film Bridget Jones’s Diary. She went on to reprise the starring role in the 2004 sequel, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason. After a long break, she is back for Bridget Jones’s baby in 2016, and now we’ll see the story expand with this next title.
Hugh Grant AND Emma Thompson are confirmed to return alongside franchise newcomers Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years a Slave, Current love) AND Leo Woodall (The White Lotus, One day). The film will be directed by Michael Morris (To Leslie, Better call Saulo).
