Bridget Jones returns to the screens in her fourth movie, which promises to be touching and unexpected. The trailer for Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is already available, revealing that the main character, played by Renée Zellweger, is about to enter a new stage in her life.

The film's premiere date is scheduled for February 13, 2025, when it will be broadcast on Peacock in the United States. The story again promises to fill both old and new fans of the series with emotions, The Hollywood Reporter writes.

The beginning of a new chapter

This tragic twist defines the emotional atmosphere of the film and lays the foundation for new challenges in her life.

New romance on the horizon

Two men appear in Bridget's life who may be able to help her through her loss. One of them is a teacher at her child's school, played by Chiwetel Ejiofor, who seems to be Bridget's age and outlook. The other is a young rocker played by Leo Woodall, and although he is much younger, he adds intrigue and unbridled energy to her life.
