Renee Zellwegger and her younger on-screen lover Leo Woodall filmed date night scenes in London’s Notting Hill on Monday for the new Bridget Jones film.
The actress, 55, who has played the titular character in the past three films, is currently shooting the fourth instalment, Mad About The Boy, in the capital.
In the upcoming film, Bridget enjoys a fling with a hunky younger lover named Rockstar, who is played by One Day star Leo, 27.
The couple looked giddy as they enjoyed a date at The Electric Cinema, as Bridget gazed at her new love interest while filming outside on the street.
Beaming Bridget was seen chatting on her phone, before meeting up with Rockstar for their date as they shot the scene.

She was wearing a short floral dress with a pair of black tights and boots, while layering her look with a pink cardigan.
Bridget, who was make-up free and wore her hair in a loose pony, was carrying a denim jacket in her hand and wore a raffia bag across her body.
Leo looked dashing in a T-shirt and blue jacket, which he teamed with jeans and a pair of brown suede boots.
In the new film, Bridget enjoys a fling with Rockstar and PE teacher Mr Walker, as played by 12 Years A Slave actor Chiwetel Ejiofor as well as reviving her on-off relationship with Hugh Grant’s Daniel Cleaver.
Chiwetel, 46, was seen shooting scenes last week which means only Hugh and Colin Firth – who has a small role in the movie as the late Mark Darcy – are yet to be spotted in character.
Renee and Leo were spotted filming together on May 18 in hilarious scenes as Bridget got stuck up a tree in Hampstead Heath.
Rockstar, who works as a park warden, seemingly comes to her rescue dressed in an all green uniform.
One onlooker said: ‘Leo and Renee looked like they were having a great time. There were lots of giggles, they seemed to get on really well.’

Renee has been busy since she arrived in London two weeks ago to reprise her role as the singleton for the fourth, and probably final, time.
She spent four days filming at ITV’s studios in White City, West London, where programmes such as This Morning and Loose Women are made.
There she met presenters from both shows, including Cat Deeley who was said to have been ‘super excited’ at seeing her.
Many studio staff were ‘overcome with excitement’ and desperate to get selfies with the Hollywood star when they realised that the movie was being filmed at their workplace.
Scenes were recorded on the set used by Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly for their now defunct show Saturday Night Takeaway, while audience members from Loose Women were also asked to stay for filming of some scenes.
One source at ITV said: ‘It was chaos, imagine having Bridget come to your work. It was literally a dream come true. The place was absolutely buzzing. Word got round so fast, Cat was so excited.’
Bridget’s creator Helen Fielding has also been spotted at the filming as she prepares to say goodbye to the much-loved character. The film is due out on Valentine’s Day next year.
It was revealed last month that Bridget’s obsession with losing weight will be ‘played down’ in the film amid fears they might be a bad influence.
