Joining the cast are actors Leo Woodall, who stars as one of Jones’ new love interests, as well as Isla Fisher and Chiwetel Ejiofor, another romantic interest for Jones.
The plot follows the storyline of the book of the same name by best-selling author Helen Fielding.
After readers and fans followed Jones’ journey to find love with the charming and well-off Mr. Darcy (played in the films by Colin Firth), this book deals a heartbreaking blow as the human rights lawyer and Jones is left picking up the pieces and trying to date.
