Actress Isla Fisher will appear in the new “Bridget Jones” film after her separation from Sacha Baron Cohen, as pictures from the set show.
At the beginning of April, the married couple Sacha Baron Cohen (52) and Isla Fisher (48) announced their divorce. They shared the news of the end of their marriage after more than 13 years via Instagram story on their official accounts on the social media platform. Now the actress, who shares three children with Baron Cohen, has been spotted on the set of the upcoming comedy “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy,” as pictures show, among other things, which are available to the US magazine “People”.
What role does Isla Fisher play in the new “Bridget Jones” film?
Fisher will therefore appear in “Bridget Jones 4”, which is currently being filmed in London. Details about the role she plays are currently not available. However, the set photos show her with a messy hairstyle, wearing a pink ruffled top and leather jacket.
Baron Cohen and Fisher announced the end of their marriage via Instagram stories about two months ago with the words: “After a long tennis match that lasted more than 20 years, we are finally putting down our rackets.”
“Thank you for all your kindness and support,” the actress wrote a few weeks later, on May 14, also in an Instagram story to her fans and followers.
The cast of “Bridget Jones 4” continues to grow
The cast of the fourth “Bridget Jones” film, which is due to be released in cinemas on Valentine’s Day 2025, has grown further since Fisher’s casting was announced. Previously confirmed alongside lead actress Renée Zellweger (55) were the returnees Hugh Grant (63) as womanizer Daniel Cleaver and Emma Thompson (65) as gynecologist Doctor Rawlings. Also new are Chiwetel Ejiofor (“12 Years a Slave”, 46), who plays the teacher Mr. Wallaker, and “The White Lotus” star Leo Woodall (27). Spoiler alert: He plays Roxster, an attractive, younger man with whom the main character Bridget Jones is having an affair.
