Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy brought the band back together, with stars like Renée Zellweger, Colin Firth, and Hugh Grant reprising their roles, and Chiwetel Ejiofor, Leo Woodall, and Isla Fisher joining the cast. Despite the caliber of talent involved, the film didn’t get an American theatrical release, instead sneaking onto Peacock last week.

The film is directed by Michael Morris and is a sequel to 2016’s Bridget Jones’s Baby. In the latest installment, Zellweger’s Jones is now a widowed single mother, navigating parenthood and new romantic relationships.

How to Watch the ‘Bridget Jones’ Movies in Order

There are four films in the series; Bridget Jones’s Diary (2001), Bridget Jones: The Edge Of Reason (2004), Bridget Jones’s Baby (2016), and finally Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy (2025). The latest entry is streaming on Peacock, which is available for just $29.99 for a whole year. Every other film in the series is streaming on Max, which is available with a bundle with Disney+ and Hulu or as a standalone subscription.

In the latest film, Bridget Jones finds herself caught between new romantic prospects, the much younger Roxster, played by Leo Woodall, and Chiwetel Ejiofor’s Scott Wallaker, a teacher at her children’s school. She also maintains a friendship with Hugh Grant’s Daniel Cleaver, her love interest from earlier installments in the film.

The film franchise is based on the book series of the same name, written by Helen Fielding and first published in 1996. Like the film series, the first two titles are Bridget Jones’s Diary and Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, while the last two titles in the book were adapted in reverse order from the films. Mad About The Boy was published in 2013, while Bridget Jones’s Baby was published in 2016.

Bridget Jones’s Diary

The first installment is “the devastatingly self-aware, laugh-out-loud daily chronicle of Bridget’s permanent, doomed quest for self-improvement,” and was published in 1996.

Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason

The Edge of Reason was published in 2001. Like all entries in the film series, Helen Fielding wrote both the book and co-wrote the screenplay for the 2004 adaptation.

Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy

Mad About the Boy is the third book in the series but the fourth in the film franchise, and centers on a relationship between the widowed Bridget Jones and a younger man.

Bridget Jones’s Baby

The fourth book in the series and the third to be adapted, Bridget Jones’s Baby centers on an unexpected pregnancy and is narratively situated between The Edge of Reason and Mad About the Boy.
