The Bridget Jones film series has always been known for its love triangles, and the final installment, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, is no exception. The first trailer for the upcoming movie, released on November 12, shows Bridget Jones (Renée Zellweger) reentering the dating scene after the death of her husband, Mark Darcy (Colin Firth).
In the trailer, Bridget’s friend Shazzer (Sally Phillips) advises her to “just get laid” as she has been out of the dating game for a while. Her ex, Daniel Cleaver (Hugh Grant), who was presumed dead in a plane crash but is actually alive, makes a return in Mad About the Boy.
Bridget’s friend Miranda (Sarah Solemani) sets up a Tinder profile for her, but Bridget finds herself in a peculiar situation while trying to help her children out of a tree. Two men, Mr. Walker (Chiwetel Ejiofor) and a handsome stranger named Roxster (Leo Woodall), come to her rescue. Roxster catches Bridget’s eye as he wraps his arms around her while helping her down from the tree.
As Bridget spends time with both men, the trailer shows her trying to find happiness again while still grieving for Mark. The presence of memories of Mark, played by Firth, adds a bittersweet element to the storyline.
Despite the emotional moments, the trailer also promises comedic moments, with Bridget making a hilarious confession about a night of “mind-blowing sex” to a studio audience. Fans can expect more of Bridget’s signature antics in the final chapter of the series.
Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is set to hit theaters on February 12, 2025. With a blend of romance, humor, and emotional depth, the film promises to be a fitting conclusion to the beloved Bridget Jones series.
