What's left behind the scenes

  • During filming, Ed Sheeran posted on Instagram that he was filming in «Bridget Jones's Baby» and posted a selfie with Renée Zellweger on his page.
  • The character played by actress Sally Phillips was based on Sharon Maguire, the director of "Bridget Jones's Diary" (2001).
  • Initially, actress Sally Phillips doubted whether she would be able to reappear on screen as Bridget's friend, a role she played in previous installments of the franchise, due to her pregnancy.
  • The film was released on the 20th anniversary of the publication of Helen Fielding's novel "Bridget Jones's Diary," and filming began on the 20th anniversary of the first appearance of "Bridget Jones's Column," which Fielding wrote for the Independent newspaper.
  • The film is not an adaptation of Helen Fielding's novel "Mad About the Boy," the third part of the story published in 2013. The film was shot from an original screenplay that Fielding co-wrote with David Nicholls.
  • Production of the third installment of the "Bridget Jones" franchise began on October 2, 2015, 11 years after the release of the second film.
  • Plans to film a third Bridget Jones movie were announced in 2009, with filming preliminarily scheduled for the fall of 2010. However, another 6 years passed before filming began, during which time various actors and directors were involved in (and left) the project.
  • The events depicted in the film take place before the events that form the plot of Helen Fielding's book "Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy" (2013).
  • This is the third time in actor Patrick Dempsey's career that he has debuted in the third installment of a franchise. He also appeared in the horror film "Scream 3" (Wes Craven, 2000) and the blockbuster "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" (Michael Bay, 2011).
  • Renée Zellweger was genuinely happy for the opportunity to reprise the beloved character more than a decade after the release of the previous film. "I adore this character," the actress admitted. "I like that Bridget tells about what it's like to be a woman in situations that many people know firsthand. I think it's right to tell another story about Bridget at a new stage in her life."
  • At certain periods of preparation for filming, Paul Feig and Peter Cattaneo were considered as directors.
  • Starting with this film, "Bridget Jones" became the first and, to date, only romantic comedy trilogy of the new millennium where all three installments were released in theaters and starred the same actors.
  • The first film in the franchise not to feature Richard Curtis in the screenplay writing.
  • In a trailer version released for international audiences, one of Bridget Jones' colleagues holds a sign that reads “We have a baby.” In the version released for the UK, the sign reads “She’s pregnant”.
  • The premiere of the first trailer took place during an episode of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," featuring Renée Zellweger as a guest in the studio.
  • The first film in the franchise shot digitally, rather than on film.
  • This is the first film featuring Renée Zellweger to be released in cinemas after a 6-year period. She filmed two other pictures that were supposed to be released before this one, but both premieres were postponed to 2017.
  • Colin Firth and Emma Thompson starred together in Kirk Jones' family fantasy-comedy "Nanny McPhee" (2005). They both also appeared in "Love Actually" (2003).
  • Three different endings were filmed for the movie. No one on the set knew which one the filmmakers had chosen until the premiere.
  • The film was distributed to cinemas in boxes labeled "London Bridge".
  • The audience learns that Mark Darcy has a middle name – Fitzwilliam. This is one of many references to Jane Austen's novel (1775-1817) "Pride and Prejudice" (1813) present in the Bridget Jones books and films. Mr. Darcy is also named Fitzwilliam there, although his name is rarely mentioned in the novel.
  • The first film trilogy of the 21st century directed by women. Sharon Maguire directed this film and "Bridget Jones's Diary" (2001), while Beeban Kidron directed "Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason" (2004).
  • Emma Thompson's involvement in the film was unknown until the release of the first trailer. The actress not only starred in the film but also participated in the screenplay.
  • Helen Fielding wrote and published the novel "Mad About the Boy" after the release of the third film in the franchise.
  • Scenes from the Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts, which is held in warm weather, were filmed in England in winter.
  • This is the first film in which Renée Zellweger did not have to gain weight to play Bridget Jones. Some online publications stated that the actress had changed the "classic" image of her character, as her body is an integral part of its appeal and popularity. Director Sharon Maguire publicly defended the new image of Jones. "We all liked the idea that Bridget had finally reached ideal sizes (42-44), but still hasn't solved any problems in her personal life."
  • The film takes place in 2010.
  • Bridget Jones's handwritten diary has been replaced by an iPad.
  • The second film in the franchise, depicting Bridget Jones's wedding. This was first shown in 'Bridget Jones's Diary' (Sharon Maguire, 2001), when the main character imagined marrying Daniel Cleaver.
  • As Colin Firth once said, Jack Quont, played by Patrick Dempsey, is a more serious rival than Daniel Cleaver, played by Hugh Grant, was in the romantic comedy 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (Beeban Kidron, 2004). "[My character] Mark didn't think Daniel was better than him. But this Jack is so charismatic it's breathtaking."
  • During the filming of the movie, Ed Sheeran posted on Instagram that he was filming in "Bridget Jones's Baby" and uploaded a selfie with Renée Zellweger.
  • Sharon Maguire, the director of "Bridget Jones's Diary" (2001), served as the prototype for the character played by Sally Phillips.
  • The film was released on the 20th anniversary of the publication of Helen Fielding's "Bridget Jones's Diary," and filming began on the 20th anniversary of the first appearance of the "Bridget Jones Column" that Fielding wrote for the Independent newspaper.
  • The film is not an adaptation of Helen Fielding’s novel “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy,” the third installment in the series published in 2013. The movie is based on an original screenplay co-written by Fielding and David Nicholls.
  • Production of the third installment in the “Bridget Jones” franchise began on October 2, 2015, eleven years after the release of the second film.
  • The events depicted in the film take place before the events that form the plot of Helen Fielding's book “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy” (2013).
  • This is the third time in actor Patrick Dempsey’s career that he has debuted in the third part of a franchise. He also appeared in the horror film “Scream 3” (Wes Craven, 2000) and the blockbuster “Transformers: Dark of the Moon” (Michael Bay, 2011).

I think it’s right to tell another story about Bridget herself at a new stage in her life.”
  • Starting with this film, "Bridget Jones" became the first and so far only trilogy in the romantic comedy genre in the new millennium, all three parts of which were released on the big screen, and starring the same actors.
  • In a trailer version released for international audiences, one of Bridget Jones’ colleagues holds a sign that reads “We have a baby.” In the version released for the UK, the sign reads “Pregnant.”
