Renée Zellweger and Hugh Grant attend ‘Bridget Jones 4’ premiere in Paris
Renée Zellweger and Hugh Grant posed together on the red carpet for the screening of their upcoming film, “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy” in Paris. The duo, who starred in the first two films of the franchise, shared a sweet embrace in front of the cameras. Given that they are coming together for the fourth installment, it is only fair that they arrive in coordinating looks at the premiere in the French capital.
Fans are always looking forward to celebrities referencing their characters on the red carpet. The co-stars did exactly the same with their outfits, giving an ode to the first “Bridget Jones” film. Zellweger wore a one-shoulder lace dress, featuring a scalloped neckline and a risqué thigh-high slit. Keeping the rest of her look simple, the actor opted for a soft glam. She further accessorized with an emerald ring and black heels.
According to PEOPLE, the dress was a subtle reference to the pixie hair and sheer bodycon dress she wore for the “Bridget Jones’s Diary” 2001 premiere in the U.K. Meanwhile, Hugh Grant reprised the two-decade-old premiere look in a traditional black suit over a crisp white button-up shirt.
“Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy,” aka “Bridget Jones 4,” is the fourth installment of the popular rom-com franchise. The new film follows the story of Bridget Jones (Renée Zellweger), a mother of two, as she navigates the world of app-based dating where she sparks romance with a younger man. The movie will be released in theatres internationally this Valentine’s Day. It will also be available for streaming in the U.S. on February 13.
