The world may change, but one thing stays the same: Bridget Jones is still here to make us laugh. A new Bridget Jones movie, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, is being released as a Peacock original movie tomorrow.
Directed by Michael Morris, with a screenplay by Helen Fielding, Dan Mazer and Abi Morgan, this is the fourth movie in the Bridget Jones franchise, and a sequel to the 2016 film, Bridget Jones’s Baby. Star Renée Zellweger is back in her iconic role, which she’s now been playing for over 20 years. The new movie picks up four years after the death of Bridget’s husband, Mark Darcy (Colin Firth). Bridget is a single mom struggling to raise their two young kids on her own. While fans will no doubt miss the grumpy-but-charming Mr. Darcy, at least Hugh Grant’s character, Daniel Cleaver, is back. It turns out he’s not dead after all!
Also starring Emma Thompson, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Leo Woodall, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is the first movie of the franchise not to be released in U.S. theaters. Read on for all the information you need about how to watch the new Bridget Jones movie.
