Renée Zellweger unveiled a new Bridget Jones statue in London, joining other iconic film characters on the Scenes in the Square trail.

Renée Zellweger visited London on Monday to reveal a new bronze statue of Bridget Jones, the beloved character she has portrayed across four films.

The statue, inspired by Helen Fielding’s creation, now stands in Leicester Square as part of the Scenes in the Square trail, alongside figures such as Harry Potter, Batman and Mary Poppins.

Fielding attended the event with cast members Sally Phillips, Leo Woodall, Chiwetel Ejiofor and director Michael Morris. Zellweger said she hadn’t fully examined the sculpture yet but thought “she looks pretty cute” at first glance.
