By IANSWednesday, March 3, 2010
LONDON - Bosses at American network NBC are set to bring Renee Zellweger’s Bridget Jones character to TV through a new weekly show.
Rumours of a third instalment in the movie series have been rife over the last few months and speculation about the future of the franchise has now turned to TV, following a deal between bosses at Working Title, the British studio behind “Bridget Jones”, and NBC, reported imdb.com.
President of NBC Universal International, Pete Smith, has said executives are working on a “reservoir” of content but refused to discuss specifics as film rights are still under discussion, but a “Bridget Jones” adaptation is said to be a top priority.
