What Daniel Cleaver will we see facing the poor girl? Bridget Jonesin the 4th opus of the saga? Hugh Grant agreed to return to play the character in Mad About the Boynot without certain conditions.

The English actor has indeed asked to reshoot some of Daniel Cleaver's scenes: “I loved the script, it made me cry and I wanted to help improve it,” he says in an interview with Vanity Fair. “Actually, there's no role for Daniel Cleaver in this story at the beginning. But they (the producers) really wanted him in it. And in the end, they did something that I didn't really like…”

Hugh Grant So decided to rework the script itself: “I wrote some of Daniel's scenes in Bridget Jones 4“, he assures, specifying that they were kept in the final version.
