"A hundred percent," Woodall tells Parade when asked whether he would return. "For sure, it'd be great if that were to happen," Ejiofor adds, "but obviously at the moment, that's not on the cards and we'll have to see."
In Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy, the two British actors star as very different kinds of love interests for Zellweger's hapless heroine. Woodall is Roxster, a strapping and carefree twentysomething who sweeps Bridget off her feet, while Ejiofor is Mr. Wallaker, a seemingly aloof teacher at Bridget's children's school who gradually reveals a softer side.
As you might guess from those character descriptions, there are some echoes of Hugh Grant's Daniel Cleaver and Colin Firth's Mark Darcy here—but only distant ones. "I love the echoes of the OGs, but it's nice to occupy a new space in Bridget's life," Woodall says. "Those two are irreplaceable."

Ejiofor went on to talk about his long-standing love for the world of Bridget Jones, which made signing on for the fourth film a no-brainer. "The films are, I suppose, geared towards women, but they've always had a huge male fan base as well, me being one of them," he said. "I really remember the first film coming out, and I felt that it spoke to where I was at as well. Bridget's reaction to the kind of chaos of the world, or feeling out of step with the world, felt familiar to me. And then these brilliantly written male characters as well, who were funny and iconic and charming in their own completely different ways, and so there was a lot to relate to."
"When I read this script, I was like, 'I think this is brilliant'," Ejiofor went on. "It captures all of the elements that we love about the Bridget Jones world, but it's also talking about the struggles that people have and the complications that you have as life moves forward. It's emotional, but without losing any of the humor and charm."
