Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is Zellweger's first film since her 2019 Academy Award-winning turn as Judy Garland in Judy. Zellweger took a six-year break from Hollywood starting in 2010 that lasted through 2016, returning to make Bridget Jones's Baby, but she remains one of the highest paid actresses in Tinseltown. Her net worth is certainly nothing to scoff at. According to CBS News, she still makes between $10-15 million per movie, which is enough to lure anyone out of retirement.
But how much is the Jerry Maguire actress worth overall? Here's what we know about what Renee Zellweger is taking to the bank in 2025.
How much did Renee Zellweger make for Bridget Jones's Diary?
Zellweger became an A-list actress by appearing in Jerry Maguire in 1996, but it was the Bridget Jones franchise that made her an icon. Celebrity Net Worth reports that Zellweger made $3.75 million to appear in the first film in 2001. That salary tripled to $11 million for the sequel, Bridget Jones: Edge of Reason, in 2004. It's speculated that she made $15 million or more for the third and fourth films. Zellweger has acted in very few projects since 2010, so if she's making a movie, it's for the big bucks.

Cold Mountain?
It's unknown how much money Zellweger made for Jerry Maguire, but it was likely far less than she made for subsequent films. Jerry Maguire was Zellweger's breakout hit, meaning she couldn't negotiate massive paydays before that performance. The movie's budget was reportedly around $50 million and with both Tom Cruise and Cuba Gooding Jr. eating up a sizable portion of that, Zellweger likely only earned a million or two.
