BRIDGET JONES: MAD ABOUT THE BOY THE OFFICIAL PODCAST is a new and exclusive podcast hosted by journalist and Bridget Jones expert Pandora Sykes. This five-part series features exclusive interviews with Leo Woodall, Helen Fielding, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and the very woman who brought Bridget from page to screen, Renee Zellweger. We also hear juicy insights about the upcoming film from the people behind the scenes such as Director Michael Morris on what he loves about the script and Costume Designer Molly Emma Rowe on the return of the big pants, hello Mummy. In Episode 3: Mad About The Besties, Pandora sits down with Bridget’s iconic posse of pals, old and new. Joining Pandora in the first half are Bridget’s brand new BFFs- Leila Farzad who plays ‘Perfect Nicolette’, Sarah Solemani who plays ‘Miranda’, and Josette Simon, who plays ‘Talitha’. They discuss getting into character in the new film, their most disgraceful behind-the-scenes antics, and the Mad About the Boy moment that Sarah Solemani brands the ‘pinnacle’ of her career. We also hear from casting director Lucy Bevan about their very first auditions for the film. Part 2 is dedicated to Bridget’s nearest and dearest: Sally Phillips and James Callis. They reminisce about being Bridget’s besties over the years, give exclusive insight into the iconic Hugh and Colin fight, and reveal the impactful Mad About the Boy scene which made them embrace the feeling of ageing. Each episode focuses on a different aspect of the Bridget Jones films, including exclusive interviews with Bridget’s beloved besties, her new love interests, and of course, Bridget herself- Renee Zellweger. Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy is in cinemas from February.
