A new Bridget Jones poster has revealed the tough choice the iconic singleton is going to have to make as she deliberates between two very handsome men.  

The much-anticipated fourth film Mad About The Boy sees Bridget, played by Renee Zellweger, break her four-year sex streak with a much younger man.

The iconic character married her on-off love Mark [Colin Firth] in the third instalment of the franchise before he tragically died leaving her widowed with two children. 

During a trip to the park, Bridget finds her two children have got themselves stuck in a tree where she is rescued by two dashing dashing men in the form of The White Lotus star’s Leo Woodall and Oscar nominee Chiwetel Ejiofor. 

And the new poster teases the love triangle further as Bridget is seen in one picture looking cosy with Chiwetel before a second photo shows Leo wrapping his arm around the star.

In the trailer, Bridget is encouraged to get back out there and happens to meet a dashingly handsome younger man Roxster [Leo] – with whom she has ‘a full night of utterly mindblowing sex’. 

She soon finds herself in the middle of a three-way battle for her affections between boytoy Roxster, PE teacher Mr. Wallaker, played by Chiwetel and a returning Hugh Grant as the infamous Daniel Cleaver.

As the trailer unravels, Bridget’s romance with Roxster heats up and the pair have ‘mindblowing sex’ after a date.

However Bridget is left confused as flirtatious meetings with Mr Wallaker increase and she eventually stumbles into a barn to find him half-naked. 

The fourth instalment in the acclaimed franchise is based on the book of the same name by Helen Fielding.

The most recent film, 2016’s Bridget Jones’ Baby, saw Bridget shocked when she discovered she was pregnant. It ended with her marrying Mark, the high-flying lawyer who she’d had on and off feelings for across the three movies, and revealed that he was the father to her baby.

However, in Mad About The Boy, Mark tragically later dies while working abroad as a human rights lawyer, leaving Bridget a widow and the book follows her as she battles motherhood alone.

She also quits her job working in television to do the school run, with comical scenes expected as she struggles to keep up with the Yummy Mummies.

In another picture, Bridget, played by Renee Zellweger, was all smiles as she cosied up to PE teacher Mr. Wallaker (Chiwetel Ejiofor)

Bridget Jones fans can also rejoice as one particularly sexy scene sees Roxster jump into a pool in front of her to rescue a little dog – in a moment mirroring the iconic Mr Darcy Pride and Prejudice look. 

The movie was officially confirmed this year, with the script being penned by author Helen, Abi Morgan and Dan Mazer, and Michael Morris as director.

Helen has also been spotted at the filming as she prepares to say goodbye to the much-loved character. 

A movie source told The Mail On Sunday in February: ‘Bridget is back and is about to take over London. Filming is being mapped out already…

‘All of the pre- production is in place. There was some uncertainty about whether it would get off the ground, but the movie is coming…

‘Renee is excited about bringing Bridget back. She adores the character so much. Bridget Jones fever is expected to sweep across London this spring.’

When asked about a fourth movie instalment, author Helen previously told Radio Times: ‘Every film that gets made is a miracle…

‘I think it’s really difficult to make films and to make them happen and to make them good and we want it to be really good. But I really hope so. I’d love to see it on the screen.’

There were rumours last year the movie had been axed due to the US actors’ strikes, but sources said those claims were ‘nonsense’.

The first film, Bridget Jones’s Diary, came out in 2001 and grossed £222 million at the box office – more than ten times what it cost to make. 

As well as Renee and Hugh returning to their roles, fans will get to see the familiar faces of Jim Broadbent and Gemma Jones back as Bridget’s batty parents, Colin and Pamela.

Bridget’s three best pals Sharon, Jude and Tom are also coming back, played respectively by Sally Phillips, Shirley Henderson and James Callis.

Reprising her role from the third film is Sarah Solemani, as Bridget’s friend Miranda and news presenter at Hard News, while Emma Thompson will also be appearing as Doctor Rawlings once again.

After Colin Firth’s name was absent from the cast list, fans feared his character would not appear at all in the fourth film, as his character Mark is killed off in the book.

However, The Mail on Sunday has revealed Colin will still be making an appearance in the film, after revealing exclusive photographs from the set last month where Renee is seen lovingly interacting with The King’s Speech star.

Wearing Mark’s trademark suit and tie, Colin tenderly places his hand upon the cheek of his co-star, who is in an emerald dress and leather boots.

It was revealed that Colin’s return was meant to be a huge surprise, with film bosses desperate to keep it under wraps.

A source said: ‘Colin was always going to appear in the movie but it was supposed to be a secret.’

In the last movie, Bridget Jones’s Baby in 2016, Bridget is seen attending the memorial of her other on-off love Daniel, who is presumed dead after a plane crash, but is later found alive.

Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy is released on Peacock in the US on February 13, 2025 and in cinemas in the UK on February 14.
