Bridget Jones is back – and our favorite characters aren’t the only thing to love about the newest film! In addition to featuring the great outdoors, we love that #BridgetJonesMovie included some cool green jobs and sustainable actions on screen, while also reducing their environmental footprint behind the scenes with battery technology, material donations and reuse, and more!

00:00Remember to open your eyes and look around.

00:07This is one of the most beautiful places on earth.

00:11Hi, I'm Chiwetel Ejiofor, and I play Mr. Wallachia in Bridget Jones' Mad About the Boy.

00:16I'm proud that we partnered with Universal's Greener Light program to find ways to embed

00:21sustainability throughout the making of this film.

00:24Am I a real person's garbage?

00:26The third technical term is garbologist.

00:29Really?

00:30Sustainability can mean so many things in our industry, from the stories we tell, the

00:34environmental impact on our sets, engaging audiences through marketing and social platforms

00:40and more.

00:41We partnered with Universal to build a plan to reduce the environmental impact of this

00:45production.

00:46Any props that we get, if we can't sell them at the end, always recycle them to charities.

00:52If we bought something to try and use it again or repurpose it.

00:56Hello, old friend.

00:58Nostalgia towards clothes is very cyclical.

01:01We're not fast fashioning our way through the film.

01:04We had the electric vehicles on for our crew, who usually rack up a lot of miles driving

01:08around central London.

01:09Now, rest assured, they're driving electric cars.

01:12We've been able to get these batteries on that we've been using on location instead

01:16of a generator.

01:17They're compact, they can be wheeled right into set.

01:19All these brilliant artists came together and we worked really hard to honour this experience

01:24that all of us are touched by.

01:26The film and television industry has a lot of reach and a lot of scope.

01:30I am very proud to work with companies that prioritise sustainability.

01:35I mean, look at that.

01:38All of it.
