The British automotive expert, 45, shared his sweet reaction to the movie poster for his girlfriend’s newest project, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, in his Instagram Stories on Friday, Aug. 23.
“Oh man… she’s so beautiful….!” Anstead wrote in black text underneath the poster. “That’s my Ren (lucky boy),” he added, followed by a heart-eye emoji.
In the poster, Zellweger, 55, is seen posing as her iconic character Bridget Jones for the fourth installment of the fan-favorite franchise. It’s set to premiere on Valentine’s Day in 2025, nine years after 2016's Bridget Jones's Baby premiered.
The actress will star alongside Hugh Grant and Emma Thompson, who are reprising their roles from past movies, as well as Leo Woodall and Isla Fisher in the upcoming film.
