Renée Zellweger wows in a timeless ensemble at her latest film premiere. The 55-year-old actress looked elegant and sophisticated at the New York City debut of “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy” on Wednesday, Feb. 12. Alongside her co-stars Leo Woodall and Chiwetel Ejiofor, Zellweger donned a structured, ankle-length satin dress with a bardot top and a belted waist. Her closed-toe pumps added a touch of 1950s glamour to the outfit, while her pinned-up hair and understated makeup completed the polished look.
This premiere is just one of many stunning appearances Zellweger has made during the Bridget Jones press tour. At the London premiere on Jan. 29, she dazzled in a pink strapless gown from the 2000 Balmain collection, paired with a statement ring and shiny pumps. Two days earlier in Paris, Zellweger turned heads in a sexy one-shoulder lace dress by Saint Laurent, while co-star Hugh Grant opted for a classic black suit.
“Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy” marks the fourth installment in the beloved franchise, based on the novels by Helen Fielding. The film follows Bridget as she navigates work, home life, and romance, including interactions with her son’s science teacher and a younger admirer. The star-studded cast includes returning members Colin Firth and Sally Phillips, as well as newcomers Ejiofor and Woodall.
In a recent interview with British Vogue, Zellweger reflected on revisiting her iconic character and the special connection audiences have with the Bridget Jones series. She also shared a humorous anecdote about a wardrobe malfunction at the 2005 Academy Awards, involving a beloved Carolina Herrera gown.
