Renee Zellweger To Play Bridget Jones Again
It has just been announced that there will be a third Bridget Jones movie, once again starring Renee Zellweger in the title role. Filming is expected to start at the end of this year. In order to prepare for the role, Renee has been told she needs to pack on the pounds, which means she’ll have to take on a diet rich in calories and sugar. Lucky girl!
Bridget Jones is a full figured British publishing executive looking for love. Renee has done an excellent job with the character in the first two movies and no doubt will be just as talented in the third installment. The movie will most likely focus on Bridget’s desire to have a baby before it’s too late and will supposedly be based on a weekly newspaper column that appears in a showbiz trade publication called the Independent, written by author Helen Fielding.
Renee was nominated for an Oscar for her performance in the first Bridget Jones movie, which was released in 2001. The sequel, Bridget Jones: The Edge Of Reason came out in 2004. Only time will tell if the third installment will be as good as the first two were.

Is she not getting other offers? I thought after the last one she was quoted as saying she wouldn’t pack on the lbs again for a role.

I would imagine if they dangled enough money at her she’d happily eat her words.
I saw the first, but not the second. Since a third one is coming out looks like I better hit up the video store
The first one was excellent, I thought. I didn’t care for the second one.

The first two were great. She is perfect for the role…I had no problem accepting her after reading the books (which were excellent, as well). Here’s hoping that Colin Firth and Hugh Grant will reprise their roles as well!
