Patrick Dempsey joins Bridget Jones’ Baby

Patrick Dempsey is finalising negotiations to join “Bridget Jones’ Baby”.

Renee Zellweger will reprise her titular role with Colin Firth also set to return to the franchise.

At this stage we don’t have any plot details (but the title gives us a fair indication). Stand by for details on Dempsey’s role.

Sharon Maguire (director of the original 2001 “Bridget Jones’s Diary”) will return to direct.

The news was first reported by Deadline.
