Renée Zellweger is reflecting on why she temporarily stepped away from acting 15 years ago.

Following the busiest few years of her career, Renée Zellweger enjoyed a much-needed six-year hiatus. The 2x Oscar winner recently opened up to Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy co-star Hugh Grant about why she took a break from acting in 2010, before returning for 2016’s Bridget Jones’s Baby.

I had to climb up the balcony to the second floor, and climb in through a little bathroom window in that dress, with a hole under my booty,” the actor tells Vogue.

Renée Zellweger has opened up about her six-year break from acting. In an interview with British Vogue, she admitted that it was "needed."

As she returns for a fourth ‘Bridget Jones’ movie, the Oscar winner reflects on her time away from the spotlight.

The 2025 movie schedule is full of exciting titles and big names, and that includes the next Bridget Jones movie and its star, Renée Zellweger. The actress, producer and writer will make her return to the big screen after more than half a decade away from Tinseltown.

In an interview with British Vogue published Wednesday, the 'Bridget Jones Diary' star said, "I needed to. I was sick of the sound of my own voice."
