'She's cuter than me,' says Zellweger on new Bridget Jones statue

""adorable," adding: "I think she's much cuter than me.""

""[It's her] vulnerability, her humanness," she said. "We recognise ourselves in her, we recognise ourselves in her struggles. "It makes it OK for the rest of us to be authentically who we are. Imperfect.""

""There were so many things that were left unresolved at the end of the last film," said Faye. "Her character keeps evolving. I want to be with Bridget Jones all the way to the nursing home," added Wayne."

A new statue of Bridget Jones was unveiled in London's Leicester Square. Renee Zellweger described the statue as "adorable" and said "I think she's much cuter than me." Bridget Jones was created in 1996 by Helen Fielding and first adapted for film in 2001. The fourth film, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, was released in February and portrays Bridget as a single mother navigating modern dating. The film earned the best UK and Ireland romantic-comedy opening despite mixed reviews. The character's vulnerability and humanness drive broad appeal across generations. Helen Fielding did not rule out future stories, and fans expressed hope for a sequel.
