Bridget Jones 4 Release Date 2025

Fans of Bridget Jones’ Diary rejoice, because Bridget Jones 4 production is reportedly underway. In the fourth instalment of the beloved Bridget Jones films, Renee Zellweger is set to reprise her role as Bridget Jones. The movie is allegedly based on Helen Fielding’s book ‘Mad About The Boy’, which was released in 2013. The novel follows a single Bridget Jones as she navigates solo parenting and dating again after her husband Marc Darcy dies prior to the start of the book. The book is filled of mishaps and hilariously awkward moments in true Bridget fashion.

When Will Bridget Jones 4 Be Released?

Bridget Jones 4 is said to be released in the US on February 14, 2025.

Colin Firth Bridget Jones 4

As the Bridget Jones 4 movie is expected to be based on, ‘Mad About The Boy’, Colin Firth will not be returning as Marc Darcy. While the last three movies saw Bridget’s on and off relationship with Marc Darcy, she eventually got her happy ending with him in the third Bridget Jones movie, aptly titled ‘Bridget Jones’s  Baby’. Spoiler alert if you haven’t watched it yet.

In the film, Bridget and Marc are no longer together but after one fateful night she ends up getting pregnant. And while at first she doesn’t know who the babies father is, her and Marc end up rekindling their relationship, having a baby boy and getting married. Author Helen Fielding decided to write ‘Mad About The Boy’, without Marc Darcy because she didn’t think it would be true to Bridget’s character if she was a ‘smug married’ woman.
