The movie, released for Valentine’s Day, follows Jones as she navigates her love life after her husband, Mark Darcy (played by Colin Firth), has come and gone.

Hugh Grant reprises his role as the dashing Daniel Cleaver and fans will be delighted to see Chiwetel Ejiofor and Leo Woodall join the cast as Bridget’s new and much younger love interests.
