Where are the cast of Bridget Jones are now?
It's exactly 20 years since Renée Zellweger burst on to our screens as our favourite chain-smoking, big-knicker-wearing 'thirty-something' singleton in Bridget Jones's Diary. And while film sequels Bridget Jones: The Edge Of Reason and Bridget Jones's Baby went on to reveal what happened to hapless Bridget and her love interests Mark Darcy, played by Colin Firth, and Daniel Cleaver, played by Hugh Grant, just where are the original blockbuster's cast now?
Miranda Knox, The Sun, 12th April 2021Being Bridget Jones, BBC2, review
Fun, relatable and breezy - just like Helen Fielding's books.
Ed Power, i Newspaper, 22nd December 2020Bridget Jones named most inspiring movie heroine
The iconic character - portrayed by Renée Zellweger - came out on top in a new study commissioned by Sky Cinema ahead of International Women's Day, which takes place on March 8.
Female First, 6th March 2020After the silly Thailand shenanigans in The Edge of Reason, cinema's most lovable diarist returns to ramshackle London life. Renée Zellweger's Bridget is now a producer for a cable TV company; Patrick Dempsey's Jack is her new beau, but Colin Firth's awkward Darcy is still around, and Bridget has had a little accident in the birth-control department. It all makes for a good-natured comedy.
Paul Howlett, The Guardian, 23rd June 2017Film of the day: Bridget Jones's Baby
Bawdy comedy starring Renée Zellweger as Helen Fielding's titular heroine, Bridget, the car crash singleton with a fondness for Pinot Grigio, married men and big knickers.
