The return of Bridget Jones has earned the best box office opening ever for a romantic comedy in the UK and Ireland, according to Universal.
Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, Renée Zellweger's fourth film as the much-loved-yet-shambolic diarist, made £11.8m in its first four days after its release on Thursday.
It beat the rom-com record previously held by the second Bridget Jones film, Edge of Reason, which took £10m in 2004 - although that figure would be worth more today with inflation.
The new film proved more popular than Captain America: Brave New World in the UK this weekend. The new Marvel film dominated box offices in North America - where Bridget Jones is not getting a cinema release.
Not a franchise I've ever had much interest in myself - but, quite a few of my female family members are into it
.
Is anyone here planning to see this?
