London, Sept 23 Actress Renee Zellweger is all set to reprise her role in the new instalment of Bridget Jones series, but this time she will don a fat suit instead of gaining extra pounds, it has emerged.

The Daily Express quoted a source as telling Reveal magazine: "Renee will be wearing a fat suit in the third film as it took her a while to lose the weight last time. She's also thinking about the effect quickly putting on and then losing 30 pounds has on her body."

The 40-year-old Zellweger has earlier played the title character in Bridget Jones's Diary and Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, for which she won high acclaim.

Colin Firth and Hugh Grant are also expected to make a comeback in the new flick, which is believed to be centred on Jones' desire to be a mum while in her 40s. (ANI)
