Nearly 25 years after saying hello to beloved Brit Bridget Jones onscreen, we’re about to bid farewell to her in the fourth, and reportedly final, chapter of the Bridget Jones saga. Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy premieres this Thursday, Feb. 13 (AKA Galentine’s Day) exclusively on Peacock. The final Bridget Jones sequel sees our chaotic protagonist dealing with complicated feelings of grief as a widower who has recently vowed to restart living her life to the fullest. Enter: Leo Woodall as the 29-year-old Roxster, who is ready to rock her world. Chiwetel Ejiofor also joins the new film as potentially a much more sensible option for Bridget. Hugh Grant returns as the saucy Daniel Cleaver, and Emma Thompson returns as Bridget’s trusted doctor.
