Hugh Grant has confirmed his return as Daniel Cleaver in the upcoming fourth Bridget Jones film, 'Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy,' after initially opting out of the third installment due to his character's absence in the storyline. In an interview with Vanity Fair, Grant expressed that he initially found it difficult to fit his character into the narrative, which revolves around Bridget as a widow in her 50s. However, after reading the script and being moved by it, he rewrote some scenes to include his character. He described the book as the best in the series, noting its emotional depth and humor. The film is set to release on Valentine's Day next year, with filming already completed. Grant's involvement marks a notable return after his character was killed off in 'Bridget Jones's Baby' (2016).
