Franchise stars Hugh Grant and Emma Thompson are expected to join newcomers Chiwetel Ejiofor and Leo Woodall for ‘Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy.’
Reuniting with Zellweger, who earned an Oscar nomination for her performance in the 2001 original film, is Hugh Grant as perennial playboy Daniel Cleaver, and Emma Thompson , who starred in 2016’s Bridget Jones ’s Baby as our heroine’s obstetrician, according to the outlet. They’ll reportedly be joined by franchise newcomers Chiwetel Ejiofor and Leo Woodall, hot off his roles on Netflix’s One Day and season two of The White Lotus.
Michael Morris, who helmed the Andrea Riseborough Oscar-nominated drama To Leslie, will reportedly direct. Sharon Maguire, who directed the first and third Bridget Jones movies, told Vanity Fair back in 2016 that she would be interested in a return to the character’s world. “I like the idea that I kind of charted my life along Bridget’s life. When she was 30, and was nowhere near being in love with children, or finding those answers, I felt that was definitely me then,” she explained.
