It has been eleven years since the last Bridget Jones movie and enthusiasm for Renee Zellwegger's plucky, awkward heroin hasn't gone away. Filming on the third film, Bridget Jones's Baby, has begun in the U.K. and now Universal has tweeted the first image of Zellwegger as she cuddles up with what's really important, an Apple IPad.
While plot details remain under wraps we know it will once again be based on Helen Fielding's writing, and is set between Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason and her third book, Mad About the Boy . Based on the title we can assume Bridget will be pregnant and having a baby, while the mystery is likely to be the identity of the father. Colin Firth is back reprising his role as Darcy, while Patrick Dempsey is on board as another love interest. Hugh Grant decided he didn't want to come back this time.
Once again directed by Sharon Maguire, who also co-write the screenplay with David Nicholls, Bridget Jones's Baby opens September 16th 2016.
