Hugh Grant says that the Bridget Jones' Diary franchise needs to be "significantly reinvented" before he signs on for a third movie.
Plans are underway for the next film in the popular series, but the star – who played Daniel Cleaver in the first two films – says he and co-stars Colin Firth and Renee Zellweger are yet to sign on for the new one. He said: "I did like playing Daniel Cleaver, but there is no definite part three. None of the three of us have signed up yet.
"There's been a number of drafts that have had great things in them but haven't quite hit the bulls-eye. "But they're working on it again now with yet another writer, as soon as they get to a good point we will do it, I'm sure. It's just that it does have to be significantly reinvented."
He also revealed that the third movie will have to be set some years after 2004's Bridget Jones' Diary: The Edge of Reason, because he and his co-stars have aged so much since. He told Total Film: "I don't think you could pretend that it's a year after the end of the last one because we look f***ing ancient now, all three of us."
