'Bridget Jones’s Diary' author Helen Fielding is working on a fourth film, with plans to adapt her 2013 book 'Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy' into a movie.

According to the publisher, “Mad About the Boy” sees Bridget — now a 51-year-old mother of two — navigating “head lice epidemics, school-picnic humiliations and cross-generational sex” and learning “life isn’t over when you start needing reading glasses.”

The book also has a tragic twist, which occurred before the novel’s action starts: Mark Darcy, the romantic lead played by Colin Firth in the movies, is dead, and has been for five years. No casting announcements have been made, but Renée Zellweger, who has played the title character in all three movies, has previously said she’s game for a fourth go round.in 2019 when asked if she’d be into another movie and what her character would be doing.

“No, I know Helen’s written the book, and I love this character. So, I mean, if they call me, I’ll go running.”
