Renee Zellweger said, why do not want children
On a press tour for her third appearance as Bridget Jones, she told the Sydney Morning Herald: “She [Bridget] reminds us that outside of beauty everybody has something to contribute”.
Staff members prepare the venue for the world premiere of “Bridget Jones’s Baby” at Leicester Square in London, Britain September 5, 2016.

Zellweger captured audience’s hearts with her affable and quirky portrayal of Bridget, who struggles in all aspects of her life but does so with humor and eternal optimism. She was joined by returning cast members Colin Firth and Hugh Grant, who played Bridget’s love interests Mark Darcy and Daniel Cleaver.
Bridget has grown up and seemingly has her life together until the unthinkable happens; she becomes pregnant and doesn’t know who the father is.
The Guardian’s Peter Bradshaw wrote that Bridget Jones’s Baby was “a pretty broad comedy” but praised the film for including an update on the “traditional rom-com rush to the airport”.
Bridget Jones’s Baby opens in cinemas later this month. “My kids love Ed Sheeran, I love Ed Sheeran, my mum loves Ed Sheeran, so I thought ‘fantastic”.
Bridget, now a 43-year-old, high-flying though ridiculously inept and lonely TV news producer, has slept with both of these men within days of each other. The character she conjures with her minimal screen time puts her superb acting talent on display.
The world has shifted significantly enough that Bridget is one of the few voices at her news program workplace speaking up for serious stories, defying the pressure brought by young executives like Alice (a deliciously callow Kate O’Flynn) to feature more stories about cats that look like Hitler. She did explain, however, why it was that she decided it was time to come back to making movies.
Maguire said that despite the long wait for the trilogy to be completed, there was no question of getting another actress to play the lead.
“I find that time goes very slowly but suddenly and quickly at the same time”, he said.
Elsewhere, there is an edge to Dempsey’s Mr Nice Guy that could have run deeper to make the character more interesting in a Cleaverish sort of way, but the push and pull between him and Firth (stoic as ever) is nicely played as Bridget decides who she wants to raise her child. But Renee’s impeccable accent soon convinced people otherwise, and Patrick is also amazed by how well she managed to pull it off.
