Bridget Jones is opening up her diary once more.
Universal Pictures and Peacock have released the trailer for Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, the fourth movie in Renée Zellweger's romantic comedy series. The two-time Oscar winner, 55, reunites with series mainstay Hugh Grant as Daniel Cleaver in the new movie.
The trailer shows Bridget as she struggles with life as a widow and mother to two young children, years after the death of series favorite Mark (Colin Firth). As Bridget begins to get back out there, she starts to grow close with two new men in her life, a younger man portrayed by Leo Woodall (The White Lotus) as well as her son's science teacher, portrayed by Chiwetel Ejiofor.

"Bridget goes back to work and even tries out the dating apps, where she’s soon pursued by a dreamy and enthusiastic younger man," reads an official synopsis for the movie. "Now juggling work, home and romance, Bridget grapples with the judgment of the perfect mums at school, worries about Billy as he struggles with the absence of his father, and engages in a series of awkward interactions with her son’s rational-to-a-fault science teacher."
Universal first announced that Zellweger will reprise her titular role as Bridget Jones in a new movie based on Helen Fielding's books back on April 9.

Grant, 63, told PEOPLE back in April that the new movie is "very moving as well as funny" and noted author Fielding based the story on her own experiences "of bringing up two children by herself after her husband died." "And so Bridget is bringing up two kids and wondering whether she should ever go back to dating," he said. "It's a very good script."
