Renee Zellweger to Return as Bridget Jones
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Adaptation, Romance, Sequels, Comedy, Casting, Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Upcoming Releases,
In a movie move that is sure to delight Singletons on both sides of the pond, Texan Renee Zellweger will reprise her role as British single gal Bridget Jones. She’s sort of the less-glamorous UK version of Carrie Bradshaw - with a flawless English accent and no Manolos.
Once again, the role will require Renee to pack on additional pounds. She has a few months to bulk up before shooting begins near the end of the year. As Jones and Zellweger enter their forties, the Brit’s new mission in life (now that she’s nailed down the trick of maintaining a successful romance) is to have a baby. Perhaps all the padding for the role won’t have to come from Big Macs after all.
Bridget Jones’s Diary was released in 2001. The sequel, The Edge of Reason, appeared in 2004. Both installments featured sparring co-stars (and mega British hotties) Colin Firth and Hugh Grant.

[quote author="antman22"]i wasnt too impressed with the first one...i prolly wont go see this one.[/quote] See, I wasn't impressed with the first one either, but the second one was actually pretty good to me. To be honest, I wasn't impressed so much that I forgot major portions of the first movie. I was like, "Okay, what was the first one all about?"
