Skinny actress Renee Zellweger is set to pile on the pounds to play chubby singleton Bridget Jones once again. The usually trim screen star will be gorging on fast food and calorie-laden snacks to get in shape for the third installment about the love-starved British publishing executive.

Zellweger, 40, is expected to start filming at the end of this year, according to Variety magazine. This time, the storyline is expected to focus on 40-something Bridget's desire to have a baby – possibly with snooty lawyer Mark Darcy – before time runs out. The Oscar winning actress, who was nominated for 2001's Bridget Jones's Diary and also starred in the 2004 sequel, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, recently spelled out what she desires in a man, saying: I'm looking for an encyclopedia and a dictionary. "A bit of the Boy Scouts Handbook. A person who is conscientious about the trail he leaves behind him. Love. Unconditional kindness."
