Renee Zellwegger and her young lover Leo Woodall were seen filming cozy night scenes in London’s Notting Hill on Monday for the new Bridget Jones movie.
The 55-year-old actress, who has played the main character in the last three films, is currently filming the fourth installment, Mad About The Boy, in the capital.
In the upcoming film, Bridget enjoys an affair with a younger, handsome lover named Rockstar, played by One Day star Leo, 27.
The on-screen couple looked giddy as they enjoyed a date at The Electric Cinema, while Bridget watched her new love interest while out on the street.
A beaming Bridget was seen talking on the phone before laughing with Rockstar as they filmed the scene together.

They are currently working on the fourth Bridget Jones movie.
The 55-year-old actress, who has played the main character in the last three films, is currently filming the fourth installment, Mad About The Boy, in the capital.
In the upcoming film, Bridget enjoys an affair with a younger, handsome lover named Rockstar, played by One Day star Leo, 27.
She wore a short floral dress with a pair of black tights and boots, while teaming her look with a pink cardigan.
Bridget, who was wearing no makeup and wearing her hair in a loose ponytail, carried a denim jacket in her hand and a raffia purse across her body.
Leo looked stylish in a blue T-shirt and jacket, which he teamed with jeans and a pair of brown suede boots.
In the new film, Bridget enjoys an adventure with Rockstar and PE teacher Mr. Walker, played by 12 Years a Slave actor Chiwetel Ejiofor, as well as rekindling her on-off relationship with Hugh Grant’s Daniel Cleaver.
Chiwetel, 46, was seen filming scenes last week, meaning only Hugh and Colin Firth, who has a small role in the film as the late Mark Darcy, have yet to be seen in character.
Renee and Leo were seen filming together on May 18 in hilarious scenes when Bridget got stuck in a tree on Hampstead Heath.
Rockstar, who works as a park ranger, apparently comes to her rescue dressed in an all-green uniform.
One viewer said: ‘Leo and Renee looked like they were having a great time. There was a lot of laughter and they seemed to get along very well.’

The upcoming film will see Bridget navigate the dating scene following the death of her husband Mark Darcy.
One of her love interests will be the toyboy Rockstar, played by Leo.
Renee has been busy since arriving in London two weeks ago to reprise her role as the Bachelorette for the fourth, and probably final, time.
She spent four days filming at ITV studios in White City, west London, where shows such as This Morning and Loose Women are made.
There she met the hosts of both shows, including Cat Deeley, who was said to be “super excited” to see her.
Many studio employees were “overwhelmed with emotion” and desperate to take selfies with the Hollywood star when they realized the movie was being filmed at their workplace.
The scenes were filmed on the set used by Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly for their now-defunct show Saturday Night Takeaway, while Loose Women audience members were also asked to stay behind to film some scenes.
An ITV source said: “It was chaos, imagine Bridget coming to your work.” It was literally a dream come true. The place was absolutely packed. Word spread so fast, Cat was so excited.
Bridget creator Helen Fielding was also seen on set as she prepares to say goodbye to the beloved character. The film will be released on Valentine’s Day next year.
Last month it was revealed that Bridget’s obsession with losing weight will be “downplayed” in the film for fear she could be a bad influence.
The two actors seemed to be having a lot of fun filming the scene.

The duo joked while filming the scene together.
