Bridget Jones Movie Reunion 2025: EXPLOSIVE Paris Premiere STUNS Fans [EXCLUSIVE]

When Renée Zellweger and Hugh Grant hit the pink carpet for the Parisian premiere of Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, it was just like old times. 

Zellweger, 55, and Grant, 64, stepped out in The City of Light on Monday, January 27, dressed very similarly to what they wore when the first Bridget Jones movie premiered almost 24 years ago.

Zellweger wowed in a black lace, one-shoulder column gown with a long sleeve, a more glamorous echo of her 2001 ensemble: A black, form-fitting cocktail dress with sheer panels, accessorized with black pointed heels and berry lipstick.

Grant, for his part, seemed to have recycled the same dapper outfit — black jacket, pants and patent shoes, with a relaxed white button-down — that he donned as a younger man.

Hugh Grant says he wept reading the script for Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy. Grant, 64, reprises his role as dastardly Daniel Cleaver in the fourth Bridget Jones movie, which hits theaters on Valentine’s Day 2025. “I loved the script — it made me cry, and I wanted to help with this one,” the […]

The actors happily posed for photos together alongside costars Leo Woodall and Chiwetel Ejiofor as well as their director, Michael Morris, and screenwriter Helen Fielding, whose 1996 novel Bridget Jones’s Diary was adapted into the hit film that spawned an entire cinematic franchise built around Zellweger’s beloved heroine. 

Earlier this month, the Oscar-winning actress finally revealed how she spent her six-year hiatus from acting. 

“I was sick of the sound of my own voice,” she said in a discussion with Grant, published by British Vogue. “When I was working, I was like, ‘Oh, my gosh, listen to you. Are you sad again, Renée? Oh, is this your mad voice?’ It was a regurgitation of the same emotional experiences.”

Zellweger decided to take some time off in 2010 and did not appear in another film until 2016.

The Bridget Jones film series began with a love triangle, so it’s only fitting that the the final installment, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, has one too. The first trailer for the upcoming movie, which was released on Tuesday, November 12, shows the titular heroine (Renée Zellweger) reentering the dating scene four years after the […]

“I wrote music and studied international law,” she explained to Grant. “I built a house, rescued a pair of older doggies, created a partnership that led to a production company, advocated for and fundraised with a sick friend, and spent a lot of time with family and godchildren and driving across the country with the dogs. I got healthy.”

Recently, Grant, who plays the devilishly charming Daniel Cleaver in the Bridget Jones movies, has also opened up about career struggles, revealing that he’d lost his confidence after listening too closely to those who criticized his talent. 

“I entirely lost faith that I could do anything else. I believed my critics really,” the actor told the “Smartless” podcast in November. “But I see now maybe I was wrong.”

Grant said he was “proud” of his work in rom-coms including Notting Hill and Four Weddings and a Funeral.

Hugh Grant just hilariously poked fun at his former onscreen nemesis, Colin Firth. When asked by Vanity Fair to describe his “idea of perfect happiness” in an interview published on Thursday, November 7, Grant, 64, hilariously replied: “Drinking a pint of London Pride while munching Twiglets and reading about Colin Firth having a critical and […]

“It’s nice to have made movies that actually entertain people and they’re much harder than people think,” he said. “And in some cases, much better than the sneerers think.”

Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is set for a February 13 release on Peacock.
