‘Bridget Jones’ Returns: Renée Zellweger Stars in Fourth Film Tackling Grief, Romance, and New Chapter

The iconic Bridget Jones franchise is set to captivate audiences once again with “Mad About the Boy,” premiering this week on Peacock in the United States and in United Kingdom cinemas. The film marks a significant departure from previous installments, exploring themes of loss, resilience, and personal growth.
Based on Helen Fielding’s 2013 novel, the new movie follows Bridget as a widow raising two young children after the death of her husband, Mark Darcy. The character’s journey promises to blend the series’ trademark humor with a more nuanced exploration of grief and new beginnings.
“It’s about seeing Bridget maintain her optimism while navigating the challenging experience of raising children alone,” Fielding told Variety. Drawing from her personal experience of loss, the author worked closely with screenwriters Dan Mazer and Abi Morgan to craft an authentic narrative.
The film introduces fresh romantic possibilities through new characters played by Leo Woodall and Chiwetel Ejiofor.
